Hello all: I'm wondering if there are reasons why I should not be setting up and organizing my WiX projects the way I currently am. I have an nmake file that runs tallow across the files that I want to install. The .xml file that is produced then gets processed by two perl scripts. The first (twiddle.pl) fills in GUIDS for all of the files and renames the components and outputs to a .wxs. The second (twaddle.pl) generates features from the the .xml file and outputs to a second .wxs. Finally, the contents of the two .wxs files are referenced in a main .wxs file that sort of controls everything else.
The reason I ask is that two build runs will result in different GUIDS for all of the files in the project. Is this a bad thing if I want to provide upgrades later on? I don't save the .wxs files in my source repository because I see them as intermediate steps... -- -- Eric Fesh Customer Support Engineer/Software Test Engineer Verari Systems Software, Inc. 110 12th Street North, Suite D103 Birmingham, AL 35203 Phone +1-205-397-3141 ext. 3149 Fax +1-205-397-3142 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.verarisoft.com/ The information contained in this communication may be confidential and is intended only for the use of the recipient(s) named above.
