Are you saying that there is some way to get better error diagnostics
from Torch?
I added -v option for verbosity but it has no effect.

In fact, I can't even figure out how do validation flags validate?!

For example, once I run Torch with -val y, next time with -val v,
keeping the same wixout input files. I would expect some validation
error to be reported: I mean, update versions of my DLLs can't be both
larger and smaller than the target versions!

However Torch reports no issues in either case, just silently outputs
wixmst file which, according to Pyro, contains 120 MB of nothing.

I certainly have-p option which is essential according to Peter's blog.

Subject: [WiX-users] Does Pyro (or Torch) ignore 4-th version number?

I have 120 MB large Wixmst created by Torch and when I pass it to Pyro
it comes back with the message PYRO1079 saying that patch cabinet
contains no files. 

 

My DLLs in RTM and Update respectively differ in the last, 4-th version
number, plus the binaries themselves are different. Using SDK tools for
patch creation these DLLs would be updated when applying the patch. I
tested that long before I started using WiX and I am 100% sure that SDK
doesn't ignore fourth version number for file substitution rules.

 

So I am wondering if Pyro is ignoring binary differences if first 3
version numbers are the same?

 

Patch.wxs content is the following:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>

  <Patch AllowRemoval="yes" Classification="Update" Codepage="1252" ...
various other attributes>

 

    <Media Id="1000" Cabinet="RTM.cab" EmbedCab="yes">

      <PatchBaseline Id="RTM"/>

    </Media>

    

    <PatchFamily Id="MyPatchFamily" Version="1.0.0" Supersede="yes">

 

      <ComponentRef Id="some component" />

      ... a bunch of components follows

   </PatchFamily>

  </Patch>

</Wix>

 

 

Thanks
