You can't specify install directory on client if you use ClickOnce... If that is absolutely necessary, well -> then you'll have to use some other deployment technology.
However, if you provide me with more info on what you're trying to achieve, I'm willing to give you more suggestions.
Enjoy!

I am using Publish Feature of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005(Visual C#) , I can easily Publish and install the updates with one click, BUT the PROBLEM is that it downloads the updates under the Logged-on user profile as C:\Documents and Settings\salman\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\MZ4LCEX9.335\8Q3D2HW5.Q2O\manifests\....
Whereas, i want to specify a download location during publishing the project.
Please help me this is very very urgent.

Hello,

Have a look at System.IO.File namespace and "Exists" method.

The System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox with it's static "Show" method will do that.
Hope it helps!
All the best,

The only idea I can think of involves creating a share folder where you write the file to. Then you could access the file via the share name. So it would be something like:
\\computername\sharefoldername\file
Of course the down side to this is you need to know the computer name, but that isn't real hard to figure out.
Hope that helps.

I like your answer, but the way I understood the question was that you wouldn't know for sure which drive the file is on. (Of course, that is a little weird/ bad design) So if you don't know the drive letter you could acces it through a share. I suppose sometimes I think too much of answering the question instead of pushing for a better design. My fault.

If the file is on the same drive that the application is on, could you use
Environment.CurrentDirectory
to figure out which drive you are on. the use relative paths from there to get to your file.

That's a really bad idea. CurrentDirectory is NOT guaranteed to stay that way. Try opening any of the File/Folder dialogs and watch what happens to the current directory during the life of the dialog AND after the dialog. The current directory changes while the user navigates to pick files/folders. The current directory will not return to the original directory when the dialog was shown until after the dialog is dismissed AND the dialog object is told to reset the current directory to what it was when it was shown.
Meanwhile, during the users navigation of the file system, the current directory always changes to match where the user is navigating. If you have a multithreaded app that mistakenly depends on current directory, you've got a huge problem!

Thanks for the info. I didn't know that!

If you install the file in the same folder, or below, as the exe then you can reference it from there.
InstallDir: d:\MyApp
File path: myfile.txt
InstallDir: d:\MyApp\Files
File path: /files/myfile.txt

How about looking at Application.StartupPath, or Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.Location).

Hi,
I am a bit surprised by the answers so far.
For starters you cant hard code C: or D: or whatever.
C: does not even have to exist; I have seen systems that boot and run from D:
Second, you cant use CurrentDirectory, as Dave pointed out.
You can not even use it if you store its startup value,
since one may start an app with its CD preset to whatever value one chooses
(try creating a desktop link, and watch its properties).
third, wherever the app (the exe file) is located, you are not guaranteed that
you can write to that folder. Unless your normal use is only reading that file,
you should choose another place.
The easy way out is by using the special folders, as can be found in
the Environment.SpecialFolder enumeration; you will find some that are
user-independent, others are user-specific.
So I suggest reading up on that class.

Hi,
I'm working on inter-process communication between a C++ application and a C# application. I want to transfer string data between them. I'm being blocked by a problem: I don't know how to intercept data (sent from my C++ app) in my C# app. I read I can use GetMessage function, but I dont know how. Here is how I send data from my C++ app to my C# one:
LRESULT copyDataResult;
//CWnd *pOtherWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, m_otherAppHeader.GetBuffer(m_otherAppHeader.GetLength()));
CWnd *pOtherWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, "EC");
m_otherAppHeader.ReleaseBuffer();
if (pOtherWnd) {
// Say that we fount ExperienceCreator window
AfxMessageBox("ExperienceCreator is opened.");
COPYDATASTRUCT cpd;
cpd.dwData = 0;
CString txt;
c_TxText.GetWindowText(txt);
cpd.cbData = txt.GetLength() + 1 ;
cpd.lpData = (void*)txt.GetBuffer(txt.GetLength() +1);
copyDataResult = pOtherWnd->SendMessage(WM_COPYDATA,
(WPARAM)AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd->GetSafeHwnd(),(LPARAM)&cpd);
txt.ReleaseBuffer();
// copyDataResult has value returned by other app
AfxMessageBox("Info has been sent to ExperienceCreator");
} else {
//AfxMessageBox("Unable to find other application.");
AfxMessageBox("Unable to find EC.");
}
Can you please help me for this problem ?
Thanks.
