Hello Peter,
Thanks again for your answers. Melt is great for me.
However, from what I have tested so far, I got stuck with it because of a bug
(I am using Wix 3.0.3307.0).
In the generated wxs, every "Source" attribute of the "File" element contents
the modularization guid in double -
like: "SourceDir\File\MyFile.ext.MSM_GUID.MSM_GUID".
I have debuged my melt version (3.0.3307.0) and found the problem in
Decompiler::FinalizeFileTable.
When the the output type is Module I have
file.Source = String.Concat("SourceDir", Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, "File",
Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, file.Id, '.', this.modularizationGuid.Substring(1,
36).Replace('-', '_'));
But the file.Id already contains the modularization GUID, so it would not be
necessary to append it again.
I will correct the problem and build my own melt, but I would also like to have
this problem corrected if possible in a future WIX release, so that I wouldn't
be forced to integrate and build it everytime I need to update my WIX version.
In addition, I must say I'm disappointed that melt hardcodes "SourceDir" in the
file source path instead of resolving it with the path provided through the -x
switch. Due to this, it cannot be used "as it is" in an automated build
process. I hope this would also be fixed someday.
Thanks a lot,
Cristian.-------------------------------------------------------------------------
