Not an issue Blair, i appreciate your concern. Attached is the bat
file(in text format) that i am using to create the msi installers. The
machine on which i run this will have the code checked out from svn(this
is my scenario) from where through heat i would harvest the file.
Ultimately i would call the bat file from the CCNET.Hope that helps.

And how do you intend to communicate that path into the MSI? And how will that
path relate to the source path of the files before they have been added to the
MSI when on other machines those files won’t exist yet?
I’m just trying to understand what your scenario is here to help guide you to a
working solution.

I do intend, but for that scenario i am changing the path accordingly,
using %~d0\Installers path.

Hi Blair,
I build them from the same machine at the same from another location.

Thanks David that works.
I have used as below:
<Property Id="SIMULATORPATH">
<DirectorySearch Id="SimulatortDir" Depth="6"
Path="$(var.SimulatorSearchRoot)" AssignToProperty="yes">
<FileSearch Id="StandaloneSimulator_exe"
Name="StandaloneSimulator.exe"/>
</DirectorySearch>
</Property>
Adding to it, is there any way i can refer to the root directory of the
current directory where the wix file is. My wix file is in the location
D:\Project\ESI\PLTLPLO\trunk\releaseFiles\GameraInstaller, how can i
refer to the root directory "D:\". I want to use this value in the path
attribute of DirectorySearch. If anyone has used the same please let me
know.
Regards,
SuvraJyoti

If you are not shipping the simulator and it is already on the target machine
you can use a directory/file search to search the hard disk for it then use the
resulting property to set the registry value.

Subject: [WiX-users] Fwd: Creating registry for an application installed
outside the current directory structure in WIX file
Hi All,
To add to the below issue, i understand that i could use a property that includes the
registry search. But issue here is that the application
"StandaloneSimulator.exe" is not something that has been installed on my
machine(i cannot find it under control panel). The
D:\Project\ESI\PFW\trunk\StandaloneSimulator\bin exists as it has been checked out from
SVN.Please let me know in case there are any workarounds.

Hi All,
I am creating an wix installer. I want to create a registry entry whose path is
not under the directory structure created in the WIX file. Below is what i
intend to do:
<Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'>
<Directory Id='Scheduler' Name="Scheduler">
<Directory Id='PLTLPLOGAMERA' Name="Pipeline Scheduler Gamera">
<Component Id="x86RegEntGameraSimulatorPath"
Guid="{C769AC98-A3D0-4CB4-939F-F396B49D4E5F}" Win64="no">
<RegistryValue Id="x86GameraSimulatorPathRegValue"
Root="HKLM" Key="SOFTWARE\[Manufacturer]"
Name="$(var.standalonesimulatorRegName)"
*Value="D:\Project\ESI\PFW\trunk\StandaloneSimulator\bin" *Type="string" />
</Component>
<Component Id="x64RegEntGameraSimulatorPath"
Guid="{0ED0A7FC-DCB1-4C36-A39B-56F9F97A3A2C}" Win64="yes">
<RegistryValue Id="x64GameraSimulatorPathRegValue"
Root="HKLM" Key="SOFTWARE\[Manufacturer]"
Name="$(var.standalonesimulatorRegName)"
Value="*D:\Project\ESI\PFW\trunk\StandaloneSimulator\bin*" Type="string" />
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
The *Value *in the above keys is the path where an application
"standalonesimulator.exe" is installed.Please suggest if there is anyway that i
do not have to hardcode this path. I know i can use an include file and fetch this path,
but again that path will be harcoded in the include file anyways.
Regards,
SuvraJyoti
