Hi David, I am not expert in candle and light but I believe that redirection in DOS should happen at the end of the line:
RunWait($WIX_FOLDER & '\candle.exe -dmanufacturer="'&$MANUFACTURER_NAME&'" -dproductName="'&$productName&'" -dcabName="'&$CABINET_NAME&'.cab" -dcodepage='&$wixInitLcidCode&' -dproductGUID='&$productCode&' -out "'&$BUILD_FOLDER&'\" "'&$BUILD_FOLDER&'\*.wxs" > myfile.txt ',$BUILD_FOLDER,@SW_MAXIMIZE) Martin Kulov -----Original Message----- From: David Amey [mailto:da...@creative-engine.co.uk] Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2011 12:17 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] logging Hi Dave, Thank you for this link. I have been trying to implement it into my calls, but sadly it does not seem to work. I have tried the redirecting with a simple cmd call and it works fine. However I am creating an automation process using autoit, and im not sure if I would be using the redirection correctly. Autoit script: RunWait($WIX_FOLDER & '\candle.exe> myfile.txt -dmanufacturer="'&$MANUFACTURER_NAME&'" -dproductName="'&$productName&'" -dcabName="'&$CABINET_NAME&'.cab" -dcodepage='&$wixInitLcidCode&' -dproductGUID='&$productCode&' -out "'&$BUILD_FOLDER&'\" "'&$BUILD_FOLDER&'\*.wxs"',$BUILD_FOLDER,@SW_MAXIMIZE) If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be incredibly grateful. Thanks!
