If the limitation is the length of the string in the
column, we should fix that. However, I think these limits were adjusted
upwards a while ago. What version of wix are you using (as reported by
candle /?)?
Thanks,
Derek

Subject: [WiX-users] XML files and large chunks of XML
Hi all,
I have a requirement to take an old XML file and copy all the settings from
/configuration/appsettings (which could be 20 or 30 settings) to the new xml
file. I've managed to get this ito a property, but when I try to reference
it in the XmlFile element it dies horribly. Now, I'm also setting another
value in the same file, and that works fine. This is the first time that
I've tried writing a big chunk of XML at once, and I think that's what's cauing
it to fail.
The column in the table has a maximum length of 255 characters - does
this mean that the XML handler can only shift 255 characters at a time? If
so, then the amount of data I want to write is more than that. What's the
best way of writing a lot of data at once?
Thanks
John
