Rob/Bob.

 

A bit of context here.  We have a bunch of merge modules that get their files 
via heat (pre V3 RTM) and then we created a post processing tool that used the 
output of Heat, and produced a WXI file that was directly included in the merge 
modules via include.

 

We just upgraded to the V3 RTM build, and with the changes in Heat, we cannot 
use the postprocessing tool anymore, without updating the code. The 
postprocessing tool does not really do anythign that Heat cannot do, other than 
generating a WXI file.

 

So I used Heat to produce a fragment WXS file, but I have one issues here:

 


How do I include that in the Merge Module WXS file? I basically removed the 
include line and I candle the module WXS and the fragment WXS file to get their 
Wixobj files and then run light, but I am getting a warning like this:


 

"light.exe : warning LGHT1079 : The cabinet 'MergeModule.CABinet' does not 
contain any files.  If this installation contains no files, this warning can 
likely be safely ignored.  Otherwise, please add files to the cabinet or remove 
it."

 

And the generated MSM is empty, it has none of the files from the fragment.

 

So basically if I can get the WXI file directly from Heat or another tool then 
I don't need to worry about this now. (I am actually thinking of getting rid of 
the MSMs, but that is the way it is for now)
 
Bob, do you have an XSLT that does the conversion to WXI?
 
thanks
Andres
