Hi All, I'm trying to make my build process produce a wixpdb that has source files bound into it to make patching easier later.
I'm calling light.exe twice to first link into a wixout, then again to create the msi as suggested here: http://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg19719.html This produces the files I expect, however the resultant msi does not include the correct license text or splash screen images. (Instead showing a red cd image and the 'common public license'.) I'm using light.exe as follows: Light.exe -v -cultures:en-us -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixUtilExtension.dll" -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixUIExtension.dll" -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixNetFxExtension.dll" -loc Language\WixUI_en-us.wxl -xo -bf -out "obj\Release\en-us\CustomizationWizard.wixout" obj\Release\ProgramFiles.wixobj obj\Release\Setup.wixobj Light.exe -v -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixUtilExtension.dll" -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixUIExtension.dll" -ext "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3\bin\WixNetFxExtension.dll" -out bin\Release\en-us\CustomizationWizard.msi -pdbout bin\Release\en-us\CustomizationWizard.wixpdb obj\Release\en-us\CustomizationWizard.wixout The problem appears directly related to whether source files are being bound. If I the exact same light commands but remove the '-bf' parameter it seems to do the right thing. Fyi: my Product xml element includes the following definitions: <WixVariable Id="WixUILicenseRtf" Value="ZAP SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS.rtf" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUIBannerBmp" Value="Bitmaps\banner.bmp" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUIDialogBmp" Value="Bitmaps\dlg.bmp" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUIExclamationIco" Value="Bitmaps\exclamation.ico" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUIInfoIco" Value="Bitmaps\info.ico" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUINewIco" Value="Bitmaps\new.ico" /> <WixVariable Id="WixUIUpIco" Value="Bitmaps\up.ico" /> Any help much appreciated, thanks, Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
