Hello all, Im trying to build a small update for the first time and I cant work out how to target a specific version of a product. I using the new wix-only patch building method to create a patch from 2 admin installations. My wix version is 3.0.5405.0. My command lines are: torch -t patch -xo -ax Binaries -p Base\%MSIName% Target\%MSIName% -out Work\Diff.Wixmst candle Patch.wxs -out Work\Patch.wixobj light Work\Patch.wixobj -out Work\Patch.WixMsp pyro Work\Patch.WixMsp -out %PatchName% -t RTM Work\Diff.wixmst
and the wix is: <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Patch AllowRemoval="yes" Manufacturer="SDL" ClientPatchId="KB2710" Classification="Hotfix" TargetProductName="SDL Trados Studio 2009" OptimizedInstallMode="yes" DisplayName="Blah" MoreInfoURL="Blah" Description="Blah" Comments="Blah" > <Media Id="5000" Cabinet="Product.cab"> <PatchBaseline Id="RTM" /> </Media> <PatchProperty Name="MinimumRequiredMsiVersion" Value="300" /> <PatchFamilyRef Id="StudioPatchFamily" /> </Patch> <Fragment> <PatchFamily Id='StudioPatchFamily' Version='1.0.0.0' Supersede='no'> ComponentRefs ... </PatchFamily> </Fragment> </Wix> The administrative installations are identical except for the altered files and the entries in the file tables that correspond to the changes (file size and file version). Im not changing the product version of the installer. It all works and produces a working patch except that the template summary property in Orca (the "targets" field) only shows <guid>, not <guid;version> as I would expect. Does anyone know how to specify the version of the product that will be patched ? I understand that this is important so that the update is sequenced correctly between minor updates. Thanks, Pete.
