Hey all,
I was wondering if someone can help me with this issue. I'm
creating a very large merge module 9000+ files, everything looks fine
except when I try to include the MSM in wise which suggests there are
problems with directory and component tables (yes fantastic error
reporting from wise). BTW I'm unable to search the mail archive on
sourceforge so please excuse me if this topic has already been covered.
:-)
Doing a verbose output on light.exe when I create the merge
module gives me a bunch of warnings that look like.....
C:\temp\testing123.wxs(45240) : warning LGHT1076 : ICE03: String
overflow (greater than length permitted in column); Table: File, Column:
Component_, Key(s):
paneTabContainerExpandedBottom.gif_6.ECE25F21_7C22_4B3F_93EC_FA1EDBA5FB2
5
It seems to be appending the packageID to the end of the
Component key? I assume that's standard practice.
<Package Id="ece25f21-7c22-4b3f-93ec-fa1edba5fb25" Compressed="yes"
InstallerVersion="200" Manufacturer="Blah" />
This particular component looks like....
<Fragment>
<DirectoryRef Id="Img_105">
<Component Id="paneTabContainerExpandedBottom.gif_6"
Guid="d8790233-d93e-41d7-905d-2d6bd2ab855f">
<File Id="paneTabContainerExpandedBottom.gif_6"
Name="paneTabContainerExpandedBottom.gif" KeyPath="yes"
Source="c:\temp\source\Splitter\Skins\Vista\Img\paneTabContainerExpanded
Bottom.gif" />
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
</Fragment>
I think this is the root of the problem, I'm using heat.exe
to generate the XML. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there a limit
for the component name? How do I get heat.exe to respect a component
name size limit if there is one?
Thanks in advance
Jimbo
