Note that SourceFile is a build-time attribute but you're trying to use the MSI property replacement, which is a run-time value. You have to specify either a relative path to the binary file or you have to put in a preprocessor variable $(var.PathToMyBinary) which you would then send in to candle.exe. Make sense?

Subject: [WiX-devs] Binary SourceFile Problem
I am having a problem when I intent to include a Binary that is located in one directory not relative to the wxs file. The directory is defined using a RegistrySearch as following:
<Property Id ="MYLIBINSTALLEDREG" >
<RegistrySearh Id = "IDMYLIBINSTALLEDREG" Root=" HKLM" Key="Software\Product" Name ="Lib" Type=" directory" />
</ Property>
<Binary Id= 'MyBinary' SourceFile='[MYLIBINSTALLEDREG] \MyBinary.dll' />I can not include the library in my project, the only way I have to find it is searching in the registry entry but I can't find the way (if exists one) to include the result of the RegistrySearch in the Binary src attribute. Any help??
Thanks,
Adrian
