# How to install data files
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Each artifact can get its own directory here - If you depend on an artifact that
|
|
|
|
|
installs assets for its own usage, the dependent artifact will also get these
|
|
|
|
|
assets installed. Therefore it is important to know, that the directory part of
|
|
|
|
|
the original artifact will be removed. An example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You have a module names `foo` and it has assets in `data/foo`.

|
|
|
You also have a module names `bar` which depends on `foo`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`bar` will now automatically get the files installed that `foo` offers.
|
|
|
|
|
But - not in `$install_prefix/bar/foo/myasset.ext` - but in
|
|
|
|
|
`$install_prefix/bar/myasset.ext`. This is exactly due to the reason that
|
|
|
|
|
you had to specify the `FILES` for the `engine_add_executable` with the full
|
|
|
|
|
path to `foo/myasset.ext`.
