I'm working on a Wix installer that has two parts.
A library with a customized FeatureTree UI.
And a "main" part that's a .wxo file produced from one Wix xml file.
The two are linked together with light to make the .msi file.
I want some of the installation parameters to be configurable - like
database usernames and passwords.
So I have a dialog box with some combo box controls that let the user
enter whatever he/she would like for these.
The combo box controls are initialized with Property values that are, in
turn, initialized with "default" values.
This all seems to work fine within the confines of the library.
But when I try to use one of the username or password Property values in
the "main" module I only get the default values.
It's acting like this tag
<User Id="OAPSqlUser" Name="[WixUI_ConfigDlg_OAPUser]"
Password="[WixUI_ConfigDlg_OAPPwd]"/>
resolves the Property values at "link time" rather than "run-time" - after
their values have been changed by the user's interaction with the Dialog
box controls.
Anybody done this kind of thing successfully?
