Hi Bob and Brian,
I have Probl;em Reading value form IniFile using INIFileSearch, see the code
belcow.
here i want read value from inifile to property [SERVICELOCATION].
INIFIle (test.ini)
[Feature1]
Servicelocation=dbsevr
<Property Id="SERVICELOCATION">
<IniFileSearch Id="test" Name="test.ini" Section="Feature1"
Key="Servicelocation" Type="raw">
<DirectorySearch Id="StandardBuildIniDirSearch" Path="D:\" Depth="0">
<FileSearch Id="testid" Name="test.ini" />
</DirectorySearch>
</IniFileSearch>
</Property>
Please can u correct this it is unable to read value from inifile.
In Wix Users i found this but i am confused with
this(LongName="[MyDir]myfile.ini") syntax
Hey Ansuya,
I have not tried this out but am thinking this is what you are looking to
do.
<property id="SEARCH_INI">
<IniFileSearch id="MY_SEARCH_INI"
LongName="[MyDir]myfile.ini" Section="MySection" Key="MyKey" Type="raw"/>
</property>
Make sure that you test the property value after it has been set by the
action sequence.
Hope this helps; let me know!
