I am new to WIX and found myself supporting it. It's a great tool and
I'm sure there are more fun to be had.
My question is
At Uninstall, I want the msi to create a machine.config file and
populate with important registry settings
I used xmltask to get it to populate an existing file I created
Connection.wxi
<Include>
<Property Id="CONNECTION_STRING" Value="dummy1" >
<RegistrySearch Id="IDConnectionString"
Key="SOFTWARE\My\App1\ClientAPI" Name="Location" Root="HKLM" Type="raw"
/>
</Property>
<Property Id="OUTPUTLOGFILE" >
<RegistrySearch Id="IDOutString" Key="SOFTWARE\My\Debug\App1"
Name="OutputLogFile" Root="HKLM" Type="raw" />
</Property>
<Property Id="LOGDIRECTORY" >
<RegistrySearch Id="IDCLogString" Key="SOFTWARE\My\Debug\App1"
Name="LogDirectory" Root="HKLM" Type="raw" />
</Property>
<Property Id="MACHINE_CONFIG" Value="c:\mymachine.config" />
</Include>
xmlconfig.wxi
<Include>
<XmlConfig xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";
Id="BrianID3"
Action="create"
ElementPath="//SOFTWARE/My/Debug/App1"
File="[MACHINE_CONFIG]"
Name="OutputLogFile"
Node="value"
Value="[OUTPUTLOGFILE]"
On="uninstall"/>
</Include>
But in order for this to work, I need to create ="c:\mymachine.config
and populate it with xml tags <SOFTWARE\My\Debug\App1>
How can I get it msi to create a file c:\mymachine.config with those
values?
