No. The preprocessor runs as part of loading the WXS files in the candle tool, and WXL files are not even accessed until either the light tool or the lit tool, which don't use the preprocessor.

Subject: [WiX-users] Can environment variables be expanded in a WXL file? I am trying to use some environment variables in a WXL file where I store the localized strings for my MSPs. However, they don't seem to be resolved! Assuming 'Var' is my environment variable, I tried $(env.Var), just the env.Var, etc. but none of them worked. Is this even possible? If so, please share the syntax for it.
