We use environment variables, like this:

 

...Name="JAMS Version $(env.Version)" Version="$(env.Version)"

Subject: [WiX-users] version numbering

 

Hi,

 

I have my version number hardcoded in multiple locations throughout my
wxs file eg

 

<Product Name='Matador 2.1.1' Version='2.1.1.0' Manufacturer='FBBT
Limited' Id='F5E0DFC0-7086-49a7-B068-DAB66E84A0BC' Language='1033'
UpgradeCode='080075AA-7BEA-46f6-A4A9-96C7279C4F92' Codepage='1252'>

 

<Package Comments='Matador is a registered trademark of FBBT Ltd.'
Compressed='yes' Description='Matador 2.1.1 installer'
InstallerVersion='211' Keywords='Matador 2.1.1 installer'
Languages='1033' Manufacturer='FBBT Limited' SummaryCodepage='1252' />

 

 

Is it possible for me to parameterise this, something along the lines of
eg

<Property Id='MatadorVersionNumber' Value='2.3'/>

<Feature Id='CompleteFeature' Title='Matador [MatadorVersionNumber]'
Description='Matador [MatadorVersionNumber]' Display='expand' Level='1'
ConfigurableDirectory='INSTALLDIR' AllowAdvertise='no'
InstallDefault='local' Absent='disallow'>

<Feature Id='MainProgram' Title='Matador [MatadorVersionNumber] Runtime'
Description='Setup files necessary for Matador [MatadorVersionNumber]'
Level='1' AllowAdvertise='no' InstallDefault='local' Absent='disallow'>

By the way, the code above works for the Description fields but NOT for
the Title fields :(

Or is there a better way that people do this?

Thanks for any help,

Patrick
