Hi
We are upgrading our apps from CR 8.5 to CR for VS 2010. We have a couple of ancient UFLs written in C++ that are currently being installed in c:\windows\crystal. Much to my surprise, CR for VS 2010 finds them there and is able to use them.
We're modifying our install to accommodate the new version of CR and we're considering putting the UFLs somewhere other than c:\windows\crystal to avoid security issues.
In another thread it was suggested that a UFL be put in C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86 which is where CR for VS 2010 appears to put them.
Are there just the two locations that CR looks for a UFL - <windows>\crystal and C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86? Are there any others?
For the setup program, what's a reliable way to determine the actual location of the standard CR UFL directory? (For example, on a 32-bit PC it will be under c:\Program Files)
Thanks
