I'm trying to building an msi package for an x64 driver using wix
3.0.4102. So far, I've figured out that it needs the scheme extension:
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";
xmlns:difx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/DifxAppExtension";>
and the option: -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML
v3\bin\WixDifxAppExtension.dll"
on both candle.exe and light.exe. Here's the driver part of my .wsx file:
<Directory Id="driver.mmfs" Name="mmfs">
<Component Id="driver.mmfs" Guid="
a8761b30-6f51-4a3e-b511-f4f6037ee612" Win64="yes">
<difx:Driver DeleteFiles="yes" Legacy="yes"
PlugAndPlayPrompt="no" AddRemovePrograms="yes" />
<File Id="driver.mmfs.inf" Name="mmfs.inf" Source="
$(var.gTarget)\proj\mmfs\mmfs.inf" />
<File Id="driver.mmfs.sys" Name="mmfs.sys" Source="
$(var.gTarget)\proj\mmfs\mmfs.sys" />
<File Id="driver.mmfs.cat" Name="mmfs.cat" Source="
$(var.gTarget)\proj\mmfs\mmfs.cat" />
</Component>
</Directory>
The msi compiles and links, but the installation fails with:
Action start 12:45:21: MsiProcessDrivers.
DIFXAPP: ENTER: ProcessDriverPackages()
DIFXAPP: ERROR - You need to use the 64-bit version of DIFXAPP.DLL to
install drivers on this machine.
Action ended 12:45:21: MsiProcessDrivers. Return value 3.
Action ended 12:45:21: INSTALL. Return value 3.
Is something missing, or is WiX 3 not yet ready for x64 drivers?
Where does the DIFxApp.dll and DIFxAppA.dll come from? Is seems they are
not taken from the WDK installation.
Thanks,
Demyn
