Hi,
I am trying to pass in some preprocessor properties from msbuild using the
"DefineConstants" property defined in WixProj.
<PropertyGroup>
<DefineConstants_ESC>a=val1;b=val2;c=val3</DefineConstants_ESC>
</PropertyGroup>
<MSBuild
Properties="DefineConstants=$(DefineConstants_ESC);"
Projects="MywixProject.wixproj"
Targets="Build" />
1. If I don't escape the ";", then following properties are passed to
wixproj (note that b & c are new properties)
DefineConstants=a=val1
b=val2
c=val3
2. If I escape the ";" (%3b)
DefineCOnstants=a=val1%3bb=val2%3bc=val3 (goes correctly to project file)
BUT it is passed as one single property override to Candle.exe (with
a="val1;b=val2;c=val3")
Candle.exe /p:a=val1;b=val2;c=val3
Am I doing something wrong? Is there workaround?
