Description
I would really like to see that you can create shortcuts in the project.xml file and then i am thinking that it maybe can look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Package> ... <shortcuts> <startmenu exe="%installdir%\program.exe" icon="logo.ico" workingdir="%installdir%\bin">start program</startmenu> <destop exe="%installdir%\program.exe" workingdir="%installdir%\bin">start program</destop> </shortcuts> ... </Package>
and then the <shortcuts> tells the installer framework that the shortcuts are comming and the <startmenu> shortcuts will be in the startmenu dir and <destop> shortcuts at the destop dir etc and the params can be:
exe= the executable file
icon = the icon of the shortcut(optional else the icon of the executable)
workingdir = optional default is the installation dir
i think that will be a good adition
