Dynamic build output folder

Using Advanced Installer Professional 16.5, I want to have the output folder of the builds dynamic.

To accomplish this, I have entered the following formatted type in the output folder setting:

Code: Select all

[|AI_AIP_FOLDER]\Builds\[|ProductName]-[|ProductVersion]\[|AI_BUILD_NAME]
When I try to save the project, I get the following error:
Invalid folder path
I guess there is an issue with the validation. The input field of the output folder is a formatted type kind (context menu, etc.).

Re: Dynamic build output folder

Hi,

This happens because you added an extra backslash after the [|AI_AIP_FOLDER] property. That property already contains a backslash and adding one more after it invalidates the path. Can you remove it and see if it works?
