I'm using WiX 3.0.4318 (the latest from SourceForge) and trying to speed up
localized installer creation. Currently I have to generate a dozen .msi
files, one per language, and use msitran to make an .mst for each. I'd like
to use torch.exe to create transforms without having to build a full .msi
for each language. I can use light.exe -xo to make a .wixout for each
language instead of an .msi (and this is much faster than building the
.msi), but this is where things start getting sticky.
I first tried to do this:
torch -xi -t language neutral.wixout localized.wixout -out localized.mst
... but what I got out was not an .mst. Another look at the docs says -xi
implies -xo, so the output must be a .wixmst. That's not what I
want--perhaps this -xi implies -xo behavior could be re-evaluated? Either
way, though, that's not my main problem--I can turn a .wixmst into an .mst
in a separate step if necessary. Except I can't get that to work.
I tried this:
torch localized.wixmst -out localized.mst
... and I got the following result:
C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\src\ext\UtilExtension\wixlib\UtilExtension.wxs(266)
: error TRCH0103 : The system cannot find the file
'C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\build\ship\x86\wixca.dll'.
I do use WixUtilExtension in my installer... so I tried this next:
torch -ext WixUtilExtension localized.wixmst -out localized.mst
... and I got the same result as before.
I'm not even sure why it's looking for wixca.dll, but shouldn't it be
looking inside the WixUtilExtension assembly instead of C:\delivery\Dev\...
?
