You can search CP (search box near the top of the page). I know there are a few good articles.

I have created a windows installer i VS.NET 2003 to install my application. The application consists of a windows service, a small winforms application and some dll's. The application installs and runs fine but only when I have hardcoded a path I have in a settings file.
What I want to do is get the folder where I install the application and write that to the file when I install the application. Because that is what I want, the default path for this setting should be the folder where the application is installed. So is there any way to get that folder during the installation? I have tried using the Installer class but they alone doesnt seem to be enough. The only folder I can get from there is C:\windows\system32 which happens to be the current folder in the Installer class.

Check out the MsiGetProductInfo[^] function in the msi.dll .
The INSTALLPROPERTY_INSTALLLOCATION property returnes the installation path.
Sorry that I do not have any samples on how to do it in .NET and C#.
But it should be fairly straight forward using pInvoke.

You could create a class library for the custom action of writing the installation path into your config file.
Inside your InstallerClass you can use reflection to get the location the custom action is executed from (Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location). This usually would be in the directory your service has been installed to.

I managed to find a solution. I had a custom action in the installation to handle the Installer classes I had in my projects and there is a propery for a custom action called CustomActionData there. By setting the value of that parameter to /installdir="[TARGETDIR]\" I could get the installation directory in my Installer class with this code: this.Context.Parameters["installdir"]. And that was all I needed. Took a while to find all parts of this solution and puzzle it together. I found one part of this solution at a time. Nowhere was it explained all the way.
Thanks everybody for trying to help me!

sorry im new at this....can someone tell me how to combine two button image.... so i will get a onmouseup and down effect?
|
|
|
|
|
Please clearify. Are you trying to create a two state image button?
If so... you just need to write a simple custom control that override OnPaint and paint accordingly.

I have about 200 workstations and I need to reenforce the license policy so I need a simple utility that I can create to verify uniqueness of the Key.

Do you not have a pile of 200 CD's then ?
According to google, it's not stored as clear text in the registry.

When you right-click on a file, you get the version tab properties. How to include this information when you comple a C# application?

You change it in the AssemblyInfo.cs file automatically generated when you create a new project. All those assembly attributes.

Suppose I have two custom classes, class A and class B. What I want to do is access the propeties and methods of class B from Class A using index notation e.g. A[index].B_property1, A[index].B_method1, etc.
How do I do this in C#?
Thanks!

Do you mean to access this form another class other than a and b,
eg:
Class c
{
A[ind].//Method from b ? .
}
|
|
|
|
|
class A needs to contain an array of class B instances, then you need to write your own indexing code. Here[^] is an example.

I've asked this once before, and got no suggestions that worked. Is there a way to get the SMTP server details from either a COM object or the registry when the user has Outlook ? What about Outlook Express ?
