Okay adding all supported language .mst's by Payload element and then having: <MsiProperty Name="TRANSFORMS" Value="[SystemLanguageID].mst" /> Does work. The install did install the shortcuts under the correct language, but if you are running on a unsupported language, a language that we do not have a .mst for, then the BootStrappper will fail when attempting to install the product.
So this is where it would be nice to be able to use conditonal statements within the MisPackage element to condition only the supported languages to work and all unsupported languages would simply get English .mst passed to the insalller. So where/what would I have to change to get this done? That also brought up another question, that is about having the bootstrapper itself to run in the languge of the OS. I read the following: "If you're using WixStandardBootstrapperApplication, it automatically tries to localize the UI based on the user UI language, falling back to the system UI language, and finally falling back to English. It looks for localized strings in directories named after the LCID, so you'd have payloads like this:" <Payload Name="1033\thm.wxl" SourceFile="..." /> <Payload Name="1036\thm.wxl" SourceFile="..." /> So that sounds like it should automatically try to localize the UI, but then the next statment that was written states that the strings are only English: "Unfortunately, WixStandardBootstrapperApplication strings are currently available only for en-US. That's why an fr-FR bootstrapper shows UI in English. You'd need to localize the WiX source file HyperlinkTheme.wxl or RtfTheme.wxl (depending on which theme you use). Both of these files are in src\ext\BalExtension\wixstdba\Resources." So which is it? is it translated or do we have to translated the theme.wxl and then use the Payload element to place them in the .exe? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Adding-language-transform-mst-s-to-Burn-Bundle-Chain-tp7586986p7587141.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
