[WiX-users] Burn Variables and the WixStandardBootstrapperApplication
I'm trying to pass variables into a burn bundle like this: MyInstaller.exe SOME_VARIABLE=true I found a thread saying that variables passed into a burn bundle are given to the BootstrapperApplication, which may create variables from them. I'm using WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense as my BootstrapperApplicationRef. Does this not create Variables from values passed in like this? The logs show no such variable being created. If I add Variable Name= SOME_VARIABLE Type=string Value=false /, then the value is simply false.

The wixstdba doesn't parse anything from the command line today.
