[WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

To build a localization I build an XML with the root being WixLocalization now from looking at some examples will String Id=ProgressTextPublishComponents for example replace the ProgressText Id called PublishComponents ? Second, how do I make my WIX actually USE this localization (making it

Re: [WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

Are you using WiX 2.0 or WiX 3.0? Anyway, one MSI can only contain one language. To support 3 languages you need to create 3 MSIs. You can then convert 2 of them to MSTs to reduce the final size of your deployment package. (Or maybe 1 MSI and 3 MSTs - I'm not even sure of that.) You then use

Re: [WiX-users] wix3: automatically pick setup language

Igor, I appreciate the time you're taking to try to explain this to me. Just to be sure that we are talking about the same thing: you want to put all languages in a single msi file. Right? No, my understanding is that this is impossible. 1. You localized all your code. Yes. 2. You

As long as you have defined all strings in your ui using localization variables (like WixUI) then it shouldn't matter, AFAIK On 5/3/07, Pseudonymic Wannabe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I also forgot to add, I'm NOT using WixUI I built a new UI based on the example from WixEdit, I doubt

Re: [WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

I first tried using WiXEdit, but could never get it to work. (Maybe I gave up too quickly.) If you look at my tutorial you can see how to do it with SharpDevelop, and using the WiX sample UI as starting point, but then modifying the UI to be what you want. With everything localized. Rennie

Re: [WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

I didn't quite get your tutorial since it messes around with user-selection and using $loc quite heavily. I thought if you create a WixLocalization file and have say String Id=ButtonNextNeste/String inn it and you loaded that file then a button with Text=[ButtonNext] would have Neste as the

Re: [WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

Don't really understand your first question, sorry. Don't quite see in your tutorial how you specify which loc.wxs file to use either. Thanks for pointing that out - I'm trying to improve my tutorial. (I may even format and upload the last page someday :-) The localization file is specified

Re: [WiX-users] WixLocalization, not quite getting it.

In WiX 2.0 you would use Text=$(loc.ButtonNext) to reference the string you defined in your localization file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pseudonymic Wannabe Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2007 5:38 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net

Not today. That's a pretty strange thing to do. To go modify some other file to remove some attribute off of it. Usually, people just build up ACLs on the files they own to make sure the right stuff is there. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On

[WiX-users] Where is Tallow for WiX 3?

I downloaded/installed Wix 3.0.2813 and don't see tallow, as far as I can tell I need it to put together a large Web Application Project distribution. Thanks. _ Exercise your brain! Try Flexicon.

[WiX-users] WiX v3 setupbld.exe question

Hi All, We're using setupbld.exe to chain two MSIs together (the first one say A.msi spec'ed with -mu, the second B.msi with -mus). This works fine, except we're testing the scenario where the user might try and run the setup.exe more than once. B.msi has some code to detect and prevent

[WiX-users] Vista error?

I have created a WIX installer that works perfectly on XP and it also works, almost perfectly, on Vista. The problem I'm having is that after the installation has completed Vista puts up a message box that says ProductName installer has stopped working. The software has been installed properly

Re: [WiX-users] wix com registration: out of proc server

Best practice is to avoid self-registration - Windows Installer cannot repair what it does not know about. WiX does not provide any tools to extract registration information from EXEs, only DLLs. This is due to a limitation on the technique used. Some people have reported success with RegCap.exe,
