I also confirm that it does not work. I ended up specifying full path
names for every File element.

Yes, that should work.

Subject: [WiX-users] FileSource attribute of the Directory Element

There is not a lot of documentation on the FileSource attribute, so what
I am wondering is if I have a Directory element with FileSource
specified like so:





...snippet...

<Directory Id="myDir" Name="My Dir" FileSource="C:\SourceFiles\">

   <Component Id="Component1" Guid="[some guid]">

      <File Source="numberonefile.xml" KeyPath="no" />

      <File Source="numbertwofile.xml" KeyPath="no" />

      ...more files...

   </Component>

</Directory>



Shouldn't that work as shown? Or, must I specify file paths in the
Source attribute, e.g. <File Source="SourceFiles\numberonefile.xml"
KeyPath="no" /> ?
