Uppercase Directory Identifiers and Component Destinations
InstallShield 2022
Project:This information applies to the following project types:
Declaring a Directory Identifier in uppercase letters makes that value a public property that can be set from the user interface. In order to allow the end user or administrator to change the destination via the user interface or from the command line, the Directory Identifier for the component’s destination must be a public property.
Using mixed-case or lowercase letters for the Directory Identifier defines the directory entry as a private property. Private properties cannot be changed from the user interface.
