In darice.cub there is some vbscript for ICE61:
Function VersionStringToLong(strng)
Dim i, iPos, sAccum, sTemp
On Error Resume Next
sTemp = strng
iPos = InStr(sTemp & ".", ".")
sAccum = "&H" & Right("00" & Hex(CInt(Left(sTemp, iPos - 1))), 2)
If Err.Number > 0 Then VersionStringToLong = 0: Exit Function
sTemp = Mid(sTemp & ".", iPos + 1)
iPos = InStr(sTemp & ".", ".")
sAccum = sAccum & Right("00" & Hex(CInt(Left(sTemp, iPos - 1))), 2)
If Err.Number > 0 Then VersionStringToLong = 0: Exit Function
sTemp = Mid(sTemp & ".", iPos + 1)
iPos = InStr(sTemp & ".", ".")
sAccum = sAccum & Right("0000" & Hex(CInt(Left(sTemp, iPos - 1))), 4)
If Err.Number > 0 Then VersionStringToLong = 0: Exit Function
VersionStringToLong = CLng(sAccum)
Exit Function
End Function
It splits around the dots in the version string and tries to produce a long.
I'm not sure if this is actually called but if it is, the bug is in the last
part. CInt converts to an integer. Unfortunately in vbscript Integers can only
contain values in the range -32,768 to 32,767. So the function will return
always 0 if the buildnumber is larger then 32767 (due to the error). You could
hack your own version....

Onderwerp: Re: [WiX-users] ICE61: Upgrade.VersionMax format is wrong
Looks like it's a bug in ICE61.
According to the MSDN documentation, VersionMin & VersionMax both "must
be a valid product version as described for the ProductVersion
property." See ->
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa372379(VS.85).aspx
ProductVersion properties are valid if "The third field ... has a
maximum value of 65,535." See ->
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370859(VS.85).aspx
I've tried replacing the darice.cub in my WiX 3.0 binaries with the one
from the Windows Installer 4.5 SDK Orca MSI but this gives the exact
same error when using 32768 as the 3rd field in a VersionMin or
VersionMax attribute of an Upgrade Element. When I try using the one
from the Windows Installer 5 SDK Orca MSI the ICE's fail to run at all
so I can't be sure whether the documentation has been updated to reflect
changes in Windows Installer 5 & is misleading us since we're still
using the 4.5 SDK ICE's.

No. Unfortunately, the ICEs in the WiX toolset come from the MSI SDK. If
they were in WiX we'd fix 'em! <smile/>
