Hi, Where should we post requests for enhancements (RFEs) to the WIX toolset?
-Jamie ======================================================== P.S. The thing I want to request is as follows: I'm using <SqlDatabase> custom action to install a SQL database and its working fine. Problem is that the tool (i.e. Visual Studio Team System for Database Pros - VSTS4DBP) that I am using to manage the script for creating objects in the database automatically creates the database for you (dropping it if it already exists). So, I have the current situation where: 1) WIX creates the database 2) My script drops the database 3) My script recreates the database There are a number of problems with this: 1) Its inherantly stupid to create, drop and recreate 2) I need to hardcode the name of the DB in WIX and in VSTS4DBP which means I am maintaining the same informaiton in two places 3) i can't prompt the user for the name of the database The change I would like to request for WIX is that it gives us the ability to execute a script without first having to create a database. I tried setting attribute CreateOnInstall="no" but that doesn't work because WIX simply assumes that the database already exists - which is not the case. Note that this enhancement won't fix problem #3 (above) - but I'm working on that!!! Hope that makes sense. -Jamie -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Is-there-a-place-for-RFEs--tf2449004.html#a6826238 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
