It has a cab at the beginning of it that contains embedded binary files. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Justin Goshi Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2007 12:26 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] wixout file format I have a question about the .wixout file format. I thought it was supposed to be just an xml file, but it looks like it has a bunch of binary data in front of the xml part. What is the binary data used for and is there a way to suppress it? The reason I'm asking is I want to parse the .wixout file so I can rewrite the path to a dll we are patching (useful for our automated build process), but cannot simply open as an xml file due to the binary data in front. Here is my command to generate the file: light.exe -nologo -xo -b path -ext WixUtilExtension -ext WixIISExtension -ext WixSqlExtension -ext WixNetFxExtension -cultures:en-US -sice:ICE30 -sice:ICE74 -sice:ICE32 -sice:ICE09 -sice:ICE54 -sice:ICE48 -sice:ICE40 -loc uistrings.xml -sice:ICE40 -sice:ICE87 -out file.wixout file.wixobj Thank you, Justin <http://office/Teams/officelive/teamsites/olpw> Office Liveis hiring dev <http://career/search/results.aspx?FromCP=Y&JobCategoryCodeID=10056&JobLocat ionCodeID=&JobProductCodeID=11105&JobTitleCodeID=&Divisions=&TargetLevels=&K eywords=&JobCode=&ManagerAlias=&Interval=50&StartDate=&EndDate=> , test <http://career/search/results.aspx?FromCP=Y&JobCategoryCodeID=10020&JobLocat ionCodeID=&JobProductCodeID=11105&JobTitleCodeID=&Divisions=&TargetLevels=&K eywords=&JobCode=&ManagerAlias=&Interval=50&StartDate=&EndDate=> and PM <http://career/search/details.aspx?JobID=6517DB8E-AF18-4341-A40F-11B045B3164 F&start=1&interval=10> !
