Hi,
I have a WPF application packaged into a MSIX using the "Windows Application Packaging" template project, and other cpp dll files used by that project. Everything is building fine, BUT the resulting installed MSIX application is creating a subfolder for each project.
Simple example below :
The executable is in the WpfTestApp, but if I want to use my Dll1.dll from it I now have to use a relative path to import it.
Considering my real project is using several of those dlls, and also a Shell Extension Handler whose path must be specified directly into the application manifest, well let's just say it's extremely prone to bugs.
What I want to achieve is a flat directory structure, not a subfolder per project.
This should be possibIe, if I create a regular C++ WinUI3 packaged project the resulting folder structure is indeed flat, like this :
This is what I want to achieve. The executable is directly into the package folder, with the other project files.
The subfolders seems to only happen with the WPF project for some reason. I searched everywhere into the solution/projects settings or the manifests files, I can't find what is making that happen.
Any ideas ?
