A much easier way to use standard extensions is to just do "candle -ext
WixUiExtension". The toolset will find the extension next to the tools
for you. Much easier than specifying a path.

mixup between Windows- and Cygwin-style directory paths. It took me
Hey Andreas,
Just to be clear, are you sure that your environment has %WIX_PATH% as a
variable and that it resolves to the correct directory path?

Hi,
How do I specify an extension on the WiX 3.5 command line?
I'm looking at an example on the following web page:
http://kobyk.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/installing-filter-drivers-with-difxapp-and-a-wix-v3-msi/
which uses the command
%WIX_PATH%\candle -ext %WIX_PATH%\WixUIExtension.dll -ex

Can you open a sourceforge bug on this requesting the clarified

Thanks, that was it. I had a hunt round the documentation and I couldn't
see that documented and I didn't think the command line help made it too
clear either. I'm sure there is lots that need documenting but I thin

It does that for me, at least as of v3.0.4325.0. Extensions given as
just a name are
To make building from the command line easier would it be possible to
modify the extension loading code to load extensions from the same
folder as the exe (candle, light, lit).
For example: if you put the WiX binaries folder on the path running
"candle -ext WixUIExtension.dll" doesn't work as
