I've been working on the installer for the project for shibl for roughly 10 hours this weekend. Microsoft has some of the most convolutedly twisted logic out there… Figuring out how to create a link in %USERPROFILE%\SendTo that would be recognized as a working shell extension was an exercise in pain and frustration. I can't use the mechanisms provided by visual studio, that would be too easy.
I just spent the last 4 hours devising a way that the application that is being installed can determine WHERE it is being installed and create its own shortcut. This is not easy, as it involves delving deep into the guts of the windows shell API, as well as having to deal with the clunky installer protocols. Anyway, it's done, I got it to work, Visual Studio is my bitch. *does the tired happy dance*
