Category: extensions Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Ken (kenmuse) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) >Summary: New Patch system should allow you to set validation Initial Comment: Currently, all patches created via the new patch system in WiX 3 have the following validation: ErrorAddExistingRow | ErrorDeleteMissingRow | ErrorAddExistingTable | ErrorDeleteMissingTable | ErrorUpdateMissingRow | ValidateProduct The value is 0x2001f (the validation bits = 0x2, error bits 0x1f) The recommended validation bits (from PatchWiz) is 0x922 (according to http://blogs.msdn.com/windows_installer_team/archive/2005/11/04/487044.aspx and http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa372066). Having the ability to configure this value would make the patch system more usable. As it is, the validation does no product version checking, which leads to patches which apply to any version of the product code. Adding thie enhancement would allow patches to be configured to match their target more exactly. Ideally, this should be exposed in the XML to allow the patch definition to control the way the bits are generated and used. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642717&aid=1764038&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
