Re: Cache folder name

Hi Yosif,

can you explain why you need to customize the folder name? Perhaps then I
can help you find a workaround.

Please note that usually end-users won't see the implementation folder names
in Zero Install anyway. Launching applications directly from these
directories will usually not work since Zero Install can't inject any
library dependencies that way.

End-users can let Zero Install create shortcuts for launching applications
in the start menu, desktop, etc.. The Cache Management GUI provides a way to
find and delete the implementation folders without having to know the hash
values.

Regards
Bastian

Hi Yosif,

Zero Install uses a hash of the contents an implementation to name the
folder it is stored in. If two implementations have identical contents they
get the same folder name only need to be stored once. If an implementation
changes in any way its hash changes and it gets stored in a new folder,
allowing updates to coexist with older versions.

Therefore the names of the implementation folders cannot be manually
changed. You can however change where they are stored in the "Storage" tab
of the configuration window.

Regards
Bastian

Hi Bastian,

Could you tell me if there is a way to set specified names of cache folder?
For example the cash folder is:

sha256new_QD77JGOH6Q3ZOLBSMJOF764KI3X5YT7UBL2NSGEAL7QVHVMTZWWA

but I would like to be:

My Wpf Application? 

Best Regards,
Yosif
