在Visual Studio安装项目中安装数百个文件的最简单方法是什么 [英] What's the easiest way to install 100s of files in a Visual Studio setup project

问题描述

我有一个标准的c#应用程序，可充当"R"统计引擎的GUI前端. "R"由大约50个不同文件夹中的大约600个文件组成，可以通过xcopy部署安装"在计算机上.

I have a standard c# application that acts as a GUI front end for a an "R" statistics engine. "R" consists of approx 600 files in approx 50 different folders and can be "installed" on a machine through xcopy deployment.

我想将R引擎和c#gui打包到一个setup.exe中，这样用户不需要先安装R，然后再单独安装c#应用程序.

I would like to package up both the R engine and my c# gui into one setup.exe so that the user doesn't need to go and install R first and then my c# application seperately.

我知道我可以制作一个安装项目，然后一个个地添加R文件，但是添加全部600个文件将非常繁琐！

I know that I can produce a setup project and then add in the R files one by one but adding all 600 files will be very tedious!

是否有更简单的方式来做我想做的事?我可以添加一个R文件夹并自动添加子文件夹和文件，以保存我一个个地添加它们的情况吗?还是在我的安装项目中执行了一个解压缩过程，即可一次性解压缩R引擎?

Is there an easier way of doing what I want? Can I add the single R folder and automatically add the subfolders and files to save me adding them in one by one? Or maybe do an unzip procedure in my setup project which will unzip the R engine in one go?

推荐答案

我无法计算出项目文件，所以最终我要做的是将我要部署的所有文件压缩，然后将zip文件添加到应用程序并创建一个自定义Installer类以将其解压缩(使用CSharp ziplib)

I couldn't work out the project file so what I did in the end was to zip up all the files I wanted to deploy, add the zip file to the application and create a custom Installer class to unzip them (using CSharp ziplib)
