You should be consistent with the official howto!

Namespace prefixes are like variable names: they are case-sensitive,
but you can call them whatever you want, as long as the declaration
and the uses are the same (including case).

In other words, even
xmlns:depz="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/DependencyExtension"; is
totally valid, as long as you use  and not
 later.

Re: [WiX-users] XML Namespace Prefix Question

2013-11-04 Thread Blair Murri
In XML case always matters. It’s only in “content” areas where the underlying 
application may choose to ignore case where it might not be (such as file 
system paths).






Namespaces are always case sensitive.


(unless you are referring only to the file name and not the actual namespace 
(which looks like a URI) in which case it depends on the settings of your 
underlying file system)

One of my sreens in ISWIX is the "Namespace" designer.  It's a simple grid 
with checkboxes that display extension prefixes and target namespaces.  I 
created this to make it easier to add references to things like the util 
namespace without looking it up all the time.

 All has been well and recently I've been doing some housekeeping adding 
new WiX extension namespaces.  One of them stood out to me:  the 
Dependency.xsd.  It's the only one in WiX that isn't all lowercase.

Do the cases of prefixes matter?  Is it better to add it as Dependency or 
dependency or does it not matter?

I code looks through a schema directory in my application directory and 
autogenerates the dictionary that backs up the list of available namespaces 
to add to the XML document.

Thanks,

[WiX-users] XML Namespace Prefix Question

2013-10-30 Thread Christopher Painter
One of my sreens in ISWIX is the "Namespace" designer.  It's a simple grid 
with checkboxes that display extension prefixes and target namespaces.  I 
created this to make it easier to add references to things like the util 
namespace without looking it up all the time.

 All has been well and recently I've been doing some housekeeping adding 
new WiX extension namespaces.  One of them stood out to me:  the 
Dependency.xsd.  It's the only one in WiX that isn't all lowercase.

Do the cases of prefixes matter?  Is it better to add it as Dependency or 
dependency or does it not matter?

I code looks through a schema directory in my application directory and 
autogenerates the dictionary that backs up the list of available namespaces 
to add to the XML document.

Thanks,
Chris
