Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Andrew Sinclair (sinky) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Create Fragments allowing WiX components to be redistributed Initial Comment: Bob Arnson asked me to create this feature request following a discussion on wix-users : It would be very useful to be able to reliably redistribute WiX components in a standard way. This would allow, say, somebody to author an msi to install server-based application components together with WiX and other files allowing the customer to create customised end-user setup programs. For example, we could ship an application and the core files needed to build end-user installers. The customer would install the msi and the application would give them options to create their own installers for client PCs. This would allow the customer to specify things like server IP addresses, logos and various default settings. The application would then invoke the WiX components that had been installed alongside it, and generate a client msi. In order to do this in a standard way it would be great to have standard Fragments (or even a merge module) to incorporate WiX into application setup. Hope this makes sense and keep up the great work ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642717&aid=1897688&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
