Root Directories

Root directories are new folders that are not sub-folders of another new folder. The Installer on the target computer installs the product in the specified root directories.

A root directory is specified in the SXP archive files by the internal parameter SxpRootDirn, where n is the number of the root directory.

Example 1

After the packaging process a parameter is specified, instead of the fixed path, for the root directory on the target computer:

SxpRootDir1=E:\GraphicWorkshop

Example 2

The ProductXRoot parameter is a client parameter that must be configured individually for the target computer.

SxpRootDir1=$(ProductXRoot)
