Re: [WiX-devs] (votive, wix, vsip, and all things microsoft) : WIX Project Build Events

[Bob Arnson]

1. I'm a new in WiX and I'm disoriented with different Wix xmlns attribute values in Votive (http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi) and in VS SDK sample setup for IronPython (http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2003/01/wi). As I understood - these 2 namespaces are quite differ b/w each other. So, I use IronPython setup as a sample - it's hard for me to translate syntax from one version to another. As Justin pointed out, that's the difference between WiX v2 and v3. I wrote the IronPython setup sample, and chose to use WiX v2 because it's the current "stable" version of WiX. WiX v3 is still in active development. I'll switch to WiX v3 for a future release of the SDK when WiX v3 is declared stable. The strange think happens when I try to build it in Votive: RegPkg creates records like that:   <Registry Name="ProjectTemplatesDir" Value="[$ComponentPath]" Type="string" /> See the "IronPython Deployment Sample" topic in the SDK help for the setup sample. It describes the manual steps you need to take to make RegPkg's output legal. As RegPkg doesn't know what your WiX source looks like, it can't write the correct value. You need to edit that value to reflect your component ID.

Add WixUIExtension.dll to the list of supported extensions. -- sig://boB http://bobs.org
