VB6 activity fails if the build is set to not copy to drop

description

VB6 activity fails if the build is set to not copy the output to the drop location and the VB6 activity does not have the log path explicitly set. This is because if no log path is set one is meant to be created using the drop location path. As it is not there you get a null exception.

On thinking about it this will effect the outdir parameter too.

I have updated the documentation page to warn about this

I've submitted a fix for this so that:

If DropFolder set
  • OutDir = DropFolder
  • LogFile = DropFolder\Logs\<project>.log
In DropFolder not set
  • OutDir = Sources\<project dir>
  • LogFile = Sources\<project dir>\<project>.log
  • No link to VB6 log file created.

Resolved with changeset 78534: Fixed bug in VB6 activity when build is set to not copy to drop folder.
