I can't figure out how to get WiX to do this. I thought about creating a binary Custom Action, but I can't find a way of passing a parameter (a string

问题 I am using the Wix Toolset 3.8 Visual Studio add-in. I have created a WIX Setup Library which encapsulates some common components that will be consumed by various service deployment projects. This library includes references to several solution files which need to be packaged into each deployment. These dependencies are used in my wix library fragments in a few different ways. For example: <Binary Id="InstallationScript" SourceFile=".\Dependency1.vbs" /> <CustomAction Id="DependencyAction"

问题 I am trying to write a custom actions class library for my WiX install package.
