Hi, We use a variable with current build passed into wix.
Therefore you can enter "Build=$(Configuration)" on the Build/Link Tab of the .wixproj properties page. With that, you are able to add debug stuff like this: <Component Id=MyFile' Guid=*MAKESOMEGUID*> <File Id=MyFile.exe' Name='MyFile.exe' Source='MyPath\bin\$(var.Build)\' Checksum='yes' /> <?if $(var.Build) = "Debug"?> <File Id=MyFile.pdb' Name='MyFile.pdb' Source='MyPath\bin\$(var.Build)\' Checksum='yes' /> <?endif?> </Component> Oli -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of SmilingInSunshine Sent: Dienstag, 7.

Everything seems to work fine but I don't know how to produce two versions of builds: debug build and release build. My current version of the script can be only used to create a DEBUG version, since the path to source file is hardcoded in the script: <File Id='Manual' Name='Manual.pdf' DiskId='1' Source='..\SubProject1\Bin\Debug\App.exe'> Is there any way to determine a type of build during the build step to automatically produce both release/debug versions using the same script? Ideally I would like to have $DebugOrRelease which is set to Debug if a debug version being build, or Release, otherwise: <File Id='Manual' Name='Manual.pdf' DiskId='1' Source='..\SubProject1\Bin\[$DebugOrRelease]\App.exe'> -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-organize-debug-release-builds-using-the-same-WiX-script-%28.wxs%29-tf4229683.html#a12032945 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
