In this case, I think the documentation needs to be updated. I say "think" because Derek actually did a lot of the clean-up in the Preprocessor to make it behave better (define's were particularly onerous). In a lot of cases, he simplified the number of supported cases.
However, if we need the original syntax, someone can argue for it. Either way, a bug would be appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lorne Laliberte Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 15:50 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] <?define foo ?> is invalid - bug in documentation? Hello list! :) According to the WiX.chm/Tools/Preprocessor topic, this should be valid: <?define IExist ?> However, candle flags that with a CNDL0151 error: The define statement '<?define IExist ?>' is not well-formed. Define statements should be in the form <?define variableName = "variable value"?>. Either this is a bug in 3.0.2211.0, or the documentation needs to be updated. Current workaround/new syntax :) seems to be to use this: <?define IExist="" ?> ...which does not produce any error. ...Lorne Laliberte ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
