You dont need to specify wix or component group. The component element will be matched when the matching algorithm reaches it and component is not used in any other contexts so specifying "Component" by itself is fine.
However, since it appears wix is not your default namespace, you will need to prefix Component with "wix:" like this <xsl:template match="wix:Component[........ When you do this, its also useful to add exclude-result-prefixes="wix" to your xsl:stylesheet element. (Yan also just replied with much the same advice. You dont need the component group in the match but theres no harm in having it either. You will need to write a template to remove the componentref element too, as mentioned there.) -----Original Message----- From: Markus Gaugusch [mailto:w...@gaugusch.at] Sent: 10 December 2009 15:10 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to specify files in Installer package I can feel that I'm nearly there, but it doesn't work yet. This is my XSLT: <?xml version="1.0" ?> <xsl:transform version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:wix="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; > <!-- By default, copy all attributes and elements to the output. --> <xsl:template match="@*|*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*" /> <xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <!-- Override copy (do nothing) for elements with this Id, so they are omitted from the output. --> <xsl:template match="compone...@id='cmp20CFFB2FF46488AF2CD00E2C9543E202']" /> </xsl:transform> And my xml looks like that: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Fragment> <ComponentGroup Id="MyClient"> <Component Id="cmp034A7A0245A16CFBB38E35D51794CF21" Directory="INSTALLDIR" Guid="*"> <File ... So, do I have to specify ComponentGroup, Fragment or Wix in the xslt file? How? thanks!
