Magic Folders in InstallAnywhere

installanywhereExpert created the topic: Magic Folders in InstallAnywhere
InstallAnywhere uses Magic Folders to define installation locations. These Magic
Folders are a way of keeping track of installation locations. InstallAnywhere can
install to any Magic Folder or sub-folder of a Magic Folder. Magic Folders represent a
specific location, such as the user selected installation folder, the desktop, or the
location for library files. At install time, the installer determines which operating
system it is running on, and sets the Magic Folders to the correct absolute paths. Many
Magic Folders are platform specific and many are predefined by InstallAnywhere. You
can install to nearly standard location on any supported platform. InstallAnywhere
also provides user controlled Magic Folders which can be set as the developer needs
them.
