问题 I want to Locate path of MSI from WIX Source code when we perform installation. I tried using $(sys.SOURCEFILEPATH) which returns what I need (C:\temp\myProj\sample.msi)). But when I copy MSI file to a different folder (D:\temp\sample.msi) and tried to install I am getting the same path as previous(C:\temp\myproj\sample.msi). Thanks for your answers in advance 回答1: The Windows Installer sets the OriginalDatabase property to the path of the installation database used to launch the installation

问题 I'm designing a new MSI installation for a product that allows multiple instances to be installed. Many of the components of the installation are identified by a 2-character code. Among these is an ODBC data source. The name of the data source includes this 2-character code, which is something the user enters during installation. I notice that I cannot use a property name "[MyPropertyName]" as the Name of an ODBC DSN in an InstallShield project. Is there any clean way to allow the ODBC DSN

问题 Basically I'm trying to build a WIX msi that can run devcon.exe (command line version of windows hardware manager) to detect if a particular piece of hardware is installed. If it is, then install msi A, else install msi B (A and B already exist as separate msi packages, we need automatic selective installation based on the hardware). Currently I've installed the WIX SDK and have created a WIX project that correctly builds an msi. I can do simple things like execute CustomActions to open

问题 I added a custom action that should kill my application using taskkill CMD when someone tries to uninstall it using the add/remove in the control panel using the following code : <Property Id="TASKKILL"> <DirectorySearch Id="SysDir" Path="[SystemFolder]" Depth="1"> <FileSearch Id="taskkillExe" Name="taskkill.exe" /> </DirectorySearch> </Property> <CustomAction Id="ServerKill" Property="TASKKILL" Execute="immediate" Impersonate="yes" Return="ignore" ExeCommand="/F /FI "IMAGENAME EQ App.exe""/>

问题 Using WiX, I'd like to install a file with permissions to read but not write (I don't even know if Windows will allow such blasphemy). Here's what I've tried: I import the UtilExtension dll with no problems, so I have no trouble accessing the <Permission/> and <PermissionEx/> elements (I don't know if the dll is needed for just the < Permission /> element, so I add it anyways). From there, I've tried every variation using both of these elements that I can think of. Here's a nice simple one

问题 I am dealing with a splash screen logo and I've noticed that on different OS versions this image gets distorted, but it happens to work when dealing with Windows 8.1, but not on Windows 7 or Vista. I've been using Adobe Fireworks in conjunction with Illustrator to generate it, and I must have tried a ton of different settings but I can't get the same experience across all operating systems. I load it into my WiX project as follows: <Binary Id="SplashBinary" SourceFile="Splash.jpg"/> And I use
