Hi Brian,

Which version are you using? I remember that once upon a time, ElementPath
required a XmlConfig Id:

Therefore, using
ElementPath="CreateDummyElement" is valid.

Rgrds,

ElementId?

I'm running into some problems with XmlConfig.  I've found that the
following does not work:

<util:XmlConfig Id="CreateDummyElement"
                File="[SOMEFILE]"
                Action="create"
                ElementPath="/startingPath"
                Name="Dummy"
                Node="element"
                On="install"
                Sequence="1" />
<util:XmlConfig Id="AddText"
                File="[SOMEFILE]"
                ElementId="CreateDummyElement"
                Value="This is the inner text"
                Sequence="2" />

However, this does work:

<util:XmlConfig Id="CreateDummyElement"
                File="[SOMEFILE]"
                Action="create"
                ElementPath="/startingPath"
                Name="Dummy"
                Node="element"
                On="install"
                Sequence="1" />
<util:XmlConfig Id="AddText"
                File="[SOMEFILE]"
                Action="create"
                ElementPath="/startingPath/Dummy"
                Node="value"
                Value="This is the inner text"
                Sequence="2" />

I would like for the first syntax to work, just as it does with attributes.
Is this a known limitation or can it be fixed?
