I'm using WiX 3.0.4318 (the latest from SourceForge) and trying to speed up localized installer creation. Currently I have to generate a dozen .msi files, one per language, and use msitran to make an .mst for each. I'd like to use torch.exe to create transforms without having to build a full .msi for each language. I can use light.exe -xo to make a .wixout for each language instead of an .msi (and this is much faster than building the .msi), but this is where things start getting sticky.
I first tried to do this: torch -xi -t language neutral.wixout localized.wixout -out localized.mst ... but what I got out was not an .mst. Another look at the docs says -xi implies -xo, so the output must be a .wixmst. That's not what I want--perhaps this -xi implies -xo behavior could be re-evaluated? Either way, though, that's not my main problem--I can turn a .wixmst into an .mst in a separate step if necessary. Except I can't get that to work. I tried this: torch localized.wixmst -out localized.mst ... and I got the following result: C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\src\ext\UtilExtension\wixlib\UtilExtension.wxs(266) : error TRCH0103 : The system cannot find the file 'C:\delivery\Dev\wix_public\build\ship\x86\wixca.dll'. I do use WixUtilExtension in my installer... so I tried this next: torch -ext WixUtilExtension localized.wixmst -out localized.mst ... and I got the same result as before. I'm not even sure why it's looking for wixca.dll, but shouldn't it be looking inside the WixUtilExtension assembly instead of C:\delivery\Dev\... ? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/torch.exe-isn%27t-getting-DLLs-from-the-extension-assembly-tp1076234p1076234.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
