I know there were some discussions before regarding the proper use of
CompareString() in the Wix sources, but I can't seem to find them. I
found a problem running the setupexe.exe in Wix on Windows 2000. The
command line parsing which uses CompareString is failing because of the
LOCALE_INVARIANT which apparently is only available on Windows XP and
higher.
According to MSDN it should be like this:
On Windows XP and later:
CompareString(LOCALE_INVARIANT, NORM_IGNORECASE, mystr, -1,
_T("InLap"), -1);
For earlier operating systems:
DWORD lcid = MAKELCID(MAKELANGID(LANG_ENGLISH,
SUBLANG_ENGLISH_US), SORT_DEFAULT);
CompareString(lcid, NORM_IGNORECASE, mystr, -1, _T("InLap"),
-1);
Is this a bug in Wix, or was it designed this way?
Thanks,
Mike Ballou
