[WiX-users] DigitalCertificateRef element deprecated in WIX 3.0?

[Sandip Shahane]

Seems like DigitalCertificateRef element is deprecated in WIX 3.0. My question 
is there any replacement for this element?

We are getting bunch of errors like for the code snippet shown below with WIX 
3.0 toolset which used to build fine with WIX 2.0:
error CNDL0005 : The Media element contains an unexpected child element 
'DigitalCertificate'. (Fixed this error by making this element child of 
DigitalSignature)
error CNDL0005 : The Media element contains an unexpected child element 
'DigitalCertificateRef'. (Not sure how to fix this one...)

We have entries added to MSIDigitalCertificate Table by WIX code as below and 
in order to avoid duplicate entries in this table for each Media entry I am 
using DigigitalCertificateRef. This way each signature references the same 
certificate row rather than creating a new one.

  <Media Id="1" DiskPrompt="1" EmbedCab="no" 
CompressionLevel="$(var.CabCompressionLevel)" Cabinet="Cab1.Cab" 
VolumeLabel="DISK1">
            <?if $(env.WIX_IS_SIGNED_BUILD) != 0 ?>
            <DigitalCertificate Id="MyCodeSigningId" 
SourceFile="mscodesign.cer" />
            <?endif ?>
        </Media>
        <Media Id="2" DiskPrompt="2" EmbedCab="no" 
CompressionLevel="$(var.CabCompressionLevel)" Cabinet="Cab2.Cab" 
VolumeLabel="DISK1">
            <?if $(env.WIX_IS_SIGNED_BUILD) != 0 ?>
            <DigitalCertificateRef Id=" MyCodeSigningId" />
            <?endif ?>
        </Media>
        <Media Id="3" DiskPrompt="3" EmbedCab="no" 
CompressionLevel="$(var.CabCompressionLevel)" Cabinet="Cab3.Cab" 
VolumeLabel="DISK1">
            <?if $(env.WIX_IS_SIGNED_BUILD) != 0 ?>
            <DigitalCertificateRef Id=" MyCodeSigningId" />
            <?endif ?>
        </Media>
