Hi all,

Goal is to build the language transforms (mst files) based upon the wixout
files instead the MSIs to drastically reduce build time.

I read
http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/torch-transforms-td7588172.html
http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Building-localized-versions-of-an-installer-td710501.html#a710505

For simplification a simple sample: we want a german mst using wix3.6.

In my understanding it works like following:
1. light to generate wixout files for all lanugages (e.g. en-us.wixout,
de-de.wixout)
2. torch to create wixmst file as diff between the 2 wixout files
3. torch to create mst based on wixmst and ???

Now I'm struggling with the correct command line syntax for that.
For 1. I assume just using the -xo should be ok
For 2.
torch.exe -t language -v -p -xi -xo en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixout
de-de\MstPerformanceTesting.wixout -out en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixmst
For 3.
torch.exe" "en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.wixmst" -out
en-US\MstPerformanceTesting.mst

results in a
torch.exe : error TRCH0001 : The given path's format is not supported.

Exception Type: System.NotSupportedException

Is the syntax / approach correct?
Am I struggling with bugs in WiX 3.6? Or with something else?

Thanks and best regards,
Tobias
