I have a project that has a large number of files. Between versions of our software, new files get added and some get removed. Therefore, in automating our build process, I would like to have heat auto-generate a .wxs file (let's call it files.wxs).
But then there are certain hand-generated items, like the <product> element with its associated version and <environment> tags for environment variables that we need to set. These never change (except for the version number which increments). Right now, I have put all of that in a file named product.wxs. How can I best combine them into one .msi? Do I need to create a <component> element inside the <product> element for each of the fragments that were auto-generated in the "files.wxs" file? If so, that kind of defeats the purpose of auto-generating that file. I'm hoping there is another way. Help! Thanks, in advance. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-mix-hand-generated-and-auto-generated-wxs-content-tp7595738.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
