[WiX-users] Property in Feature names, etc.

2009-03-25 Thread Jon Drnek
Can I use a property in a Feature title and description, a shortcut name
etc.  The value of the property is being set via a custom action before
LaunchConditions.  I've tried something like Feature Id=Complete
Title=[APPNAME] Description=[APPNAME] Installation . but I just get a
feature title [APPNAME], not the name of my application.

 

Thanks,

[WiX-users] Don't remove changed files

2009-03-18 Thread Jon Drnek
Is there a way that I can prevent files that we have installed from being
removed in an uninstall if the users have changed those files?

 

Thanks,

[WiX-users] Multipe products

2009-03-09 Thread Jon Drnek
We currently have a product that is private labeled for multiple customers.
The code is the same, the executables are just renamed and we use some
different graphics.  I'm trying to decide the best way to put the install
script together for this.

 

If I would use the same .wxs file for each build, I know I would need a
different Guid for the product ID, and the upgrade code.  Would I need a
different  Guid for each component as well?  We do want the ability to have
all the different products installed on our computers.

 

I'm also still not clear on the best way to assign files to components.  Its
very unlikely that we would ever install a subset of our product, so my
first thought is to only have a couple of components.  All the examples I
see though seem to have 1 component per file.  We would have maybe a hundred
components if we went this way.  What benefit do I get from having that many
components if we would never do a partial install?

 

Thanks,

Re: [WiX-users] Can't install Wix in VS 2008

2008-06-18 Thread Jon Drnek
I'm just trying out WiX and still have a lot to learn about Visual Studio so
I may have made a stupid mistake here.  I can't get WiX to appear under
Visual Studio 2008 standard.  I have Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 installed.

It seems to work fine for 2005.  When I did the initial install I was never
prompted for options, it just installed the software.  When I run the
installer a second time and click the change button I do not see and VS 2008
options.  I do see 2 VS 2005 entries.  Is there something I need to do to
get the installer to see 2008?
