Category: votive Group: None >Status: Pending >Resolution: Works For Me Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Alastair Upton (abupton) Assigned to: sameer garde (sameerg) Summary: Inconsistent Platform/Platforms attributes of Package elem Initial Comment: [Build 3808] The platforms attribute allows entry of items such as $(var.Platform) but produces a warning about being obsolete. The platform attribute displays an error in VS intellisense stating that there are invalid characters in the platform property. In addition, candle appears to work for merge modules with Platform=$(var.Platform) but not with installers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: sameer garde (sameerg) Date: 2008-05-01 22:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=2017144 Originator: NO Alastair, I just verified that candle does work with var.Platform even for installers. This is something that may have been fixed between build 3808 and now... Just to make sure you did define var.Platform before sending it through candle right? Re: the intellisense part, var.Platform will throw errors in Intellisense because this variable is defined to be an enum and thus isn't expecting to be passed a string other than that avaialble in the enum. That said this is legal and can be used, its just that Intellisense won't be able to handle this, which is a nuisance but unfortunately also happens to be something that we wouldn't be able to fix right now. I'm marking this as pending for now in case you have some addtional data for me to look at. Do let us know in a week after which I'll assume this is working for you and I'll close this out. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1905147&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
