Use a preprocessor variable.
$(var.TakeFolder) and on the commandline to candle pass "-dTakeFolder=1".
Then change it to 2 when you need to change it to 2.

Subject: [WiX-users] Changing the location of the files to take...
Hi all,
I have a "Take" folder, which os for our developers to put the compiled files
into for me to "take" to put into the installer but with version changes this
directory could also change.
for instance I currently have this:
<File Id="foo.bar" Name="foo.bar" DiskId="1" KeyPath="yes"
Source="u:\1\take\common\foo.bar" />
but when I build the installer for version 2 Have to go through all the files
changing the 1 to a 2. sure, this doesn't take that long using a find and
replace, but what would be nice is to have a variable of say "TakeFolder" and
just change it in the 1 location, and have all my file codes looking like this:
<File Id="foo.bar" Name="foo.bar" DiskId="1" KeyPath="yes"
Source="[takefolder]\common\foo.bar" />
is there a way to do this?
thanks in advanced.
Jason
