[Installbase-devel] InstallBase 1.0a3 and recursive file groups

[Michael S. <ms...@cb...>]

Hi,

I'm using InstallBase to copy over a Java runtime environment along with
our product. I'd like the JRE to be installed under <InstallDir>/jvm (with
its own directory tree preserved, of course).

It looks like my only option is to set "Add new file groups for
directories" on, add the JRE directory, individually change each directory
to install under <InstallDir>/jvm/dirname instead of <InstallDir>/dirname,
then select each directory for the JRE component in the Component tab.
Multiplied by three platforms, my fingers are going to get sore. :) Is
there a better way?

BTW, compared with InstallShield Multiplatform, InstallBase is easier to
use, still does everything we want, and we can use the money we'll save
to buy a lovely silver sculpture of an antelope on ebay. Many thanks. :)

Mike
