Hi Simon, I've also done something to enable adding hierarchies of content files at a time. My solution was to add a new task, MSIHelper, that adds the directories as components into the MSI/MSM task xml (sort of like XmlPoke). So I have a CreateInstaller.base file that I expand using my task into a new file, CreateInstaller.include, that I include in my build file.
I'll try to resist the temptation of adding the functionality to the MSITask/MSMTask during refactoring, but I'll keep it in mind so maybe it'll be easier to add afterwards. /Kræn > -----Original Message----- > From: Simon Protheroe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 11. november 2003 15:54 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: Kræn Munck > Subject: RE: [NAntC-Dev] Patch for MSITask to avoid Orca > ICE60 verification warnings > > > Hi Kræn, > > Same here.
