Re: [WiX-users] how to create a single component in output wxs file for whole directory using heat
heat.exe doesn't support this out of the box - it was designed to encourage the best practice, which is one file - one component. However, you can apply an XSL transform to the heat output and change it the way you need. You can also take a look at the Paraffin tool ( http://www.wintellect.com/CS/blogs/jrobbins/archive/2007/10/21/wix-a-better-tallow-paraffin.aspx), created by John Robbins some time ago - it has a switch to support your scenario.

You can also use WiXEdit (http://sourceforge.net/projects/wixedit/) to do that but you'll need to use version 0.7.2.3 or older as they changed it to work as per heat.exe from 0.7.3 onwards.

Re: [WiX-users] how to create a single component in output wxs file for whole directory using heat
Yan, This comes up from time to time and I want to stress that there is no universal best practice that states every file should be the keyfile of it's own component. 1:1 is the most common situation that you would want to do this but it is not universally true. The MSI SDK talks about this and I can speak from experience that I know of a number of situations where I would want to author in a non 1:1 fashion.

Re: [WiX-users] Shortcuts and Recent Programs list
I don't have a Windows 7 pc where i can test this now, but i just tested this on Windows XP with Windows ® Installer. V 4.5.6001.22159 and no errors occured. I hope to test this setup on a Windows 7 pc (with Windows Installer 5) tomorrow to see if it doesnt create a recent programs shortcut.

Hi there, I want a custom icon to get displayed in the title bar when my msi is executed.

Re: [WiX-users] WiX creating obj file in strange place
IIRC, it's not candle, it's MSBuild. That makes it harder. smile/ On Sun, Mar 20, 2011 at 3:40 PM, Rennie Petersen r...@merlinia.com wrote: Hi Rob, Thank you very much for your explanation. I have an alternative suggestion as to how this feature should be implemented, as I think it is unfortunate that the current implementation punishes 99.9% of the WiX users in order to avoid problems that only 0.1% of the users encounter. Add an option to candle.exe (and light.exe?), something like -individualizedoutput. If the option is missing, place all obj files in the same folder, like in the good old days. But add code to detect the error that 0.1% of the users encounter, the ones who link to multiple files with the same file name. If you detect this situation, then write out an error message like Multiple files with same file name XX.wxs are being compiled to same resulting obj file. Suggest use of the -individualizedoutput option. The compile ends with an error code, i.e., the compile is considered to have failed. Only if the -individualizedoutput option is present should the current technique of placing obj files in strange places be enabled. I think this would be more user-friendly than the current situation, and at the same time avoid the need for implementing metadata as you suggest. -Original Message- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: 19. marts 2011 19:00 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] WiX creating obj file in strange place It's a feature that usually looks like a bug. The feature came about because there were some people creating links to files that had the same file name. During compile one of the .wixobj's would get overwritten. It was a very mysterious issue and took us a long time to figure out. Now, I don't care for the way the fix was implemented (I would have rather we allow you to specify metadata on one of the files to rename the .wixobj output) but that is where we are at right now. If someone wanted to do the MSBuild-magic to get the behavior I described above and contribute it, that would be quite fantastic.

WiX creates two new folders in which to place the obj file for the included file! Here is where the obj file is placed: D:\Merlinia\Trunk\OutBack5x\OutBack Server\Common5x\WiX Include files\LicenseAgreementKludge.wixobj In doing this it has created the two folders Common5x\WiX Include files. Which I would prefer that it didn't do - I would prefer that it placed the obj file for the included file the same place as all of the other obj files. Is this a bug or a feature? Is it possible to avoid this?
