Yes, I am getting the following error:
The WiX variable !(wix.ProductName) is unknown. Please ensure the
variable is declared on the command line for light.exe, via a
WixVariable element, or inline using the syntax !(wix.ProductName=some
value which doesn't contain parenthesis).
I'm using the previous weekly release (v3.0.4207.0), and I'm having
the same issues when invoking Candle/Light from the command line
without using the Votive integration.
I have set up a simple solution to test this (all by using Votive
inside Visual Studio 2005):
Solution
Library Project:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
<Fragment>
<WixVariable Id="ProductName" Overridable="yes" Value="MyProduct" />
<WixVariable Id="ProductManufacturer" Value="MyManufacturer" />
</Fragment>
</Wix>
MSI Project (Library project referenced with project reference):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
<Product Id="..." Name="!(wix.ProductName)" Language="1033"
