Hi Is it possible to refer to variables inside your .wxl file?
I have a situation where a value is defined inside an environment variable that is used throughout various parts of a project (msbuild, custom cmd scripts and WiX). This value is passed to candle using the -d commandline switch, so it works fine for my .wxs file. I would also like to refer to this inside a <String> element inside my wxl file, but if you write something like <String Id='foo'>$(var.foo)</String> and then reference !(loc.foo) inside your .wxi/.wxs file, then the MSI contains the string literal of $(var.foo). Can custom bind variables be used to work around this problem when I run Light?
