Thank you for that tip! I will definately use that. Now i only need to understand why melt doesn't take care of the paths in the wixpdb files, eventhough i'm using bindpaths.

Another approach is to use named bindpaths like this: (which in VS IDE can be edited in the project's properties page (or by unloading the project) <LinkerAdditionalOptions> $(LinkerAdditionalOptions) -nologo -b foo="$(MySourceRoot)\source_path\foo\\" </LinkerAdditionalOptions> For $(MySourceRoot) I define that in another .targets file that I load into all projects, or sometime I don't use the targets file and use a relative path as you indicated. Rather than this: "..\Protocol\bin\Release\" you could use: "..\Protocol\bin\$(Configuration)\" -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Including-files-to-installer-with-bindpath-best-practice-tp7599451p7599459.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
