Category: dark Group: v3.0 >Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 3 Private: No Submitted By: Mattie Casper (rezand) Assigned to: Derek (derekc) >Summary: dark doesn\'t work with CustomTables with binary columns Initial Comment: The attached .msi file has a custom table that contains a binary column. Dark explodes on this with the following error message: badbinary.msi dark.exe : fatal error DARK0000: Failed to get string from record Stack Trace: at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Msi.Record.GetString (Int32 field) at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Decompiler.ProcessO therTables(Hashtable coveredTables) at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Decompiler.ProcessPr oductElement(XmlWriter writer, Boolean writeDocumentElements) at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Decompiler.Decompil e(String inputPath, String outputPath) at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Tools.DarkMain..ctor (String[] args) at Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Tools.Dark.Main (String[] args) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Derek (derekc) Date: 2006-02-27 18:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=518766 Well, its taken us almost 2 years, but we finally have the infrastructure in place for wix 3.0 to fix this bug. Thank you for opening it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Robert Flaming (rflaming) Date: 2005-03-31 17:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1030024 I've been holding back on fixing this bug as it turns out the compiler does not support the compilation of tables with binary columns: MsiDigitalSignature.Hash, MsiDigitalSignature.CertData, SFPCatalog.Catalog, or custom binary columns. Clearly a bug worth fixing, so it's only a matter of time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=955490&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
