Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Heath Stewart (heaths) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Pyro should define Patch/@ClientPatchId Initial Comment: The AllowRemoval property that WiX defines in the secondary transform uses the patch code in a form (no curly braces or dashes, and prepended with an underscore for a valid Identity column type value) but this forces the patch author to know the patch codes up front before building the product. In turn, this has a dependency on using a seed that will be unique to each permutation of the patch if a single patch authoring doc were used for different builds (like for different processor architectures of products). This is very complicated. Instead, it would be easier to define an attribute on Patch named ClientPatchId that will be used instead of the mangled patch code in Patch.BuildPairedTransform. Ideally, this is just something like a KB# which is known up front and doesn't have to be unique for each product (since it will be in a transform that is unique to a product - by default for transform validation flags - anyway). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642717&aid=1739872&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
