Ok, so renaming my wixpdb files, produced as described above, to wixout
extension solved the problem for torch input and it produced wixmst
output file. Thus, apparently, wixpdb can exist only in XML format,
while wixout is binary.
Based on Peter Marcu's blog I understood that wixpdb substitutes
With just -bf and -xo as additional linker options Votive creates this
command line:
C:\Program Files\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\Light.exe
-loc CustomWixUI_en-us.wxl
-out C:\path\Product.msi
-pdbout C:\path\Product.wixpdb -bf -xo
obj\Debug\BrowseDlg.wixobj
... dialog and other wixobjs ...
Giving command:
"%WIX%bin\torch.exe" -xi rtm\Product.wixpdb upd1\Product.wixpdb -out
Patch\Diff.Wixmst
I get the following error:
error TRCH0048 : The document element name 'wixOutput' is invalid. A WiX
pdb file must use 'wixPdb' as the document element name.
Clearly torch doesn't like somethin
