Re: [WiX-users] Burn VS2010 variables
If you mean preprocessor variables? Yes, those are the same (they are handled by the preprocess which runs before the compiler). You might try running dark -x dumpfolder path\to\bundle.exe and see what is in the manifest. It is possible your preprocessor variable is not resolving to what you think it is. smile/ On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 10:33 AM, Dieter Lunn coder2...@gmail.com wrote: Does burn support variables in a bundle like the setup does?

A shortened version of my WXS file is : Wix Bundle ExePackage Source=setup.exe InstallCommand=-psc_s [MYVAR] /Bundle /Wix I'm using MyBundle.exe MYVAR=foo /quiet to install the bundle, but when using process explorer, setup.exe is never thrown with my variable set. Is there something wrong in the InstallCommand syntax ? Or in the MyBundle.exe command line ? Thanks a lot ! -- Gilles QUERRET -- Write once. Port to many.
