For ifdef and ifndef, just use the name of the variable. So your
statement should look like
<?ifdef MyVar?>

Subject: [WiX-users] WIX preprocessor problem with variables
HI ALL,
I am trying out WIX preprocessor directives ifdef / ifndef. For
any environment or local variable WIX is not able to set the 'ifdef'
condition to true, although the variable is defined. For example, the
condition <?ifdef $(env.TEMP)?> fails, same with <?ifdef
$(env.ProgramFiles)>. Similarly the following 2 statements do not work
as expected:-
<?define MyVar="MyValue"?>
<?ifdef $(var.MyVar)?>
<!-some code -->
<?endif?>
If I change the 'ifdef' to 'ifndef' the code given in the if
block executes. That means the preprocessor is working fine, but it is
not able to see the variables as defined. What could be the problem? Any
missing reference or file?
Please point out any reasons which could cause this kind of
problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Sameeksha
