Re: [WiX-users] heat and xslt transform to keep only pdb files

2012-08-06 Thread Naim Kingston
H, that actually ends up removing all directories, pretty much every 
Directory tag, no matter what the contents or what children it has. 

I also tried:



But got the same effect.

Subject: [WiX-users] heat and xslt transform to keep only pdb files

I'm using heat to try and harvest a directory of all the pdb files. I know that 
there is an option for heat to look into the vcproj files to get them, but I 
may need to expand this in the future to deal with other file types as well, 
such as linker map files, and the like.

What I've got so far is an xslt transform that filters out all whitespace and 
files except for the pdb files, but it also leaves behind empty
directories:


http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";
xmlns:wix="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>

 
 

 







 
 

 
  


I've tried several different ways (found mainly from google, and messing around 
with xslt) of trying to recursively filter out the empty directories (and then 
their parent directories which will be empty, etc, etc), but I haven't been 
successful.

I'm a beginner to xslt, and to be honest, I didn't think this would be so hard, 
and suspect it shouldn't be, I'm probably just not thinking in the right way.

These are the things I've tried so far:

 


 
   

   
 



 



  

Not all at once of course, one by one.

And I'm all out of ideas. I've taken a look at an XML book as well, with a 
section on XSLT, but that didn't help very much.

The whole point of this is that when we build and create the msi of our 
product, to take all the pdb files (built in release, perhaps linker map files 
as well) and bundle them into another msi so we can install them alongside our 
product for when we need to do debugging on a particular machine. Only for 
development purposes of course, we would never distribute this to a customer! 
And I don't actually know if it's possible to install 2 separate projects to 
the same folder, or maybe I can set them up as separate features (main product 
and debug symbols), and have 2 msi files, one for each feature?

Anyway, regardless of the crazy stuff I intend to do for debugging purposes, I 
figured this would be a good excuse to get a little familiar with xslt.

Hopefully someone is able to make sense of what I'm trying to do :)

Re: [WiX-users] SxS MFC merge module needs to write to System32. Why?

2012-08-06 Thread Chris Dahl
Hey Bruce,

Thought I'd let you know that I solved this by removing the VC10 merge modules 
from our WiX project. The VC90 ones weren't causing a problem, however it was 
the other processes on the machine that had a hold on the shared files in 
System32 that caused the problem.

Seems Windows Installer wasn't properly checking to see if the file already 
existed either (or we were including a more recent version).

- Chris.

Apparently there were bugs on XP with SxS installations - see the thread
