[WiX-users] Suppress bundle caching and registration in ARP

Re: [WiX-users] How to access BootstrapperApplicationdata.xml from wix extension

I'm very confused. This FireGiant KB article (https://support.firegiant.com/entries/24024258-The-four-phases-of-build-time-in-the-WiX-toolset-) talks about preprocessing before compiling. The BootstrapperApplicationData file is generated during the binding phase. Your BA can access the Bootstra

BAFunctions are a bit new, so the documentation is sparse. I believe you just need to include your DLL in your bundle and have it saved in the payload root with the bafunctions.dll name. There should be an example in \src\burn\Samples\bafunctions. -Original Message- From: Jun Yin [mail

You have a build error, that's why it's referring to the WiX source file, just have the file in the right place for the build. It's not building, so that means you haven't tested it yet. Maybe you are confusing build time with install time? The copyfile element at install time needs a source locat

Sigh, thanks Tom! Well I guess back to the old drawing board :) I will have to cut in 1/3 the side banner bitmap for Welcome/Install, Success/Failure/Modify screens and try to figure out the hex number for the "light gray" colour and use that as the background colour for the text on progress s

Re: [WiX-users] transparent background on text that changes i.e.: OverallProgressPackageText leaves solid background of text foreground colour in Bootstrapper

Steve, I ran into this same issue and another user posted about it last week as well. For the moment I am working around it same as you did. This seems like something that should be corrected though so I went ahead and opened a bug: http://wixtoolset.org/issues/4325/ -Original Message---
