What version of the WiX toolset are you using? -----Original Message----- From: Mark Modrall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2008 14:38 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] preprocessor and environment variables? Hi... I recently ran into a number of problems trying to change wix project behavior based on environment variable settings. A number of the things that sounded intuitive to me didn't work. For example <?ifdef $(env.A) ?> <?define myVar="foo" ?> <?else?> <?define myVar="bar" ?> <?endif?> didn't work because ifdef returns false for all environment variables always whether they are set or not. <?if $(env.A) ?> <?define myVar="foo" ?> <?else?> <?define myVar="bar" ?> works as long as $(env.A) is defined, but if it's not, Candle generates an exception. Is there any way to test for environment variable existence before you try to use it in Wix?
