Have you seen:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/865604/Writing-a-Wix-Extension-to-Read-XML-Files
I have not used the above, but I think the idea is to use it to read the XML
into a property, and then later to use the wix supplied XmlConfig to modify
an XML.

Or use Burn and a managed BA, where you can do it without a CA and pass it as a
property to the MSI.

Jeremiahf,
I like your approach. I'll write the C# code to do what I want it to do and
then figure out how to make it a CA. Instead of trying to write a CA to do
what I want.

I did see this but didn't consider it since it appears to be too advanced for

I have a WiX extension that supports setting XML values into MSI properties.
Its an open-source project:

To use it you should:
1. Clone the repository.
2. Update to the latest default branch
3. Build PanelSwWixExtension project in

.targets files are MSBuild scripts.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164312.aspx
MSBuild is used by VS and by wix. In fact each project file (.csproj or
.wixproj) is a .targets file, as the .targets extension is just a 'default'
extension for a MSBuild script file. A developer can
Expanding on #1 above, I think you are seeing the varied results of not
following the only one resource per component recommendation. Author each
registry action into a separate component and make the registry value the
Keypath of that component.
Okay so that's why it might be heat that is causing my problem with vs
complaining about having extra files. I need to either let heat pull the
file into the wix installer or explicitly specify inclusion of the file in
the wix installer. Thanks again for your help.

Hi
Is there an update to the information that Rob shared on Feb 2014? What is
possible today?

It's not hard but there is nothing built into WiX toolset today to do it.
There is a feature under development to do self-update for bundles that
Still not supported directly in the toolset but it doesn't take much to do it.
I have a modified WixStdBA here

I would not draw that conclusion, but I don't have enough information.
My guess is that you have a MSBuild script which is building some
application project (maybe in VS or not) and that there is an 'output'
folder full of generated files.
Then my guess is that, as part of building the wix
Here is a fragment from a project which sets the AppPath keys. Each action is
in a separate Component with the KeyPath on the registry action, rather than
the Component Directory.

You owe us all a beer! JK! Glad you figured it out.
