I might have sent my reply to the wrong address earlier.  Apologies if it
double-posts...


 Hi hariom,

I'm using WiX v2.0.
I managed to achieve what you're looking for by using tallow.exe with
msbuild.  In fact I wrote a custom task that calls the tallow executable and
parses and re-formats the results.  The parameters of the custom action were
the search path ( e.g. C:\source\debug\*.dll) and the name of the file to
output the results to.  The msbuild script then included the my main wix
file plus anything created by Tallow, and hands it over to wix to be
packaged into an MSI.

It took a bit of sorting out, but it works very well indeed.

Rik

Subject: [WiX-users] Connecting many files to a single component

Hi All,

I am a newbie to WIX, but I am using Installshield. Now I need to port my
installers to WIX. In Installshield while doing Dynamic File Linking option
I will be getting a option like, I can select only required files from that
directory. That means for example I can select only *.aspx files OR *.dll
from particular directory. Is that this feature is available in WIX also?

Let me put my question in this way also, can I connect multiple files to a
single compoent?

<File Id='web.config' Name='web.config' DiskId='1' Source='C:\sample\*.aspx'
/> If I am trying to use this light.exe is throwing error.

Please help me and thanks in advance :)
