[wix-devs] Testing 4x

[Hoover, Jacob]

Convert throws a whole lot of these...

error WIX0006: The whitespace preceding this node is incorrect.

Why is white space in a XML document important?

Also I assume this means that VisualStudioExtension\src\Schemas\v4\schemas\wix4.xsd is out of date/not done?

What switch is used w/ build to pass in a wxl?

1. Always start with "wix convert" of your old code to new code. It isn't just namespaces that change.

2. Updated documentation that shows the v4 shape of things will obviously be important.

If the CLI matters...

Tools\build\Release\net461\win-x86>wix build Z:\Temp\Product.wxs Z:\Temp\Components.wxs -o test

And the authoring in question is:

<DirectoryRef Id="Xxx">
<Component Id="Xxx.Directory" Guid="{...}"> <CreateFolder /> <RemoveFolder Id='Xxx.Directory.Remove' On='uninstall'/> <Condition>NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE</Condition> </Component> </DirectoryRef>

Trying to kick the tires on the now built tools, but some things lack a lot of detail, or any detail, for that matter. From the meetings I could remember wix build source files..., but what are the other options? Tried running against an existing installer source, and after doing namespace upgrades I am now running into a strange error:

error WIX0005: The Component element contains an unexpected child element 'Condition'



Thanks,
Jacob
