[wix-users] Disable formatting in session.log

It's more that while I debugging I was doing File.Open and getting back 'file not found' where as my log was showing the correct file name.  Turns out I had missed the session.Format part, but the log formatted it anyway for me, causing much head scratching.

So what I was really looking for was a way to suppress formatting in log entries when I am using them for developer diagnostics.

Cheers,

Stephen.

I do not know the direct answer to your question, but if you want to hid properties passed to a deferred CA in the CustomAcationData, then create a Property with the same name as the deferred CA and mark it hidden.  When using a Wix feature which has a wix custom action you may need to search the source code to determine what the name of the deferred CA is.
<Property Id='DeferedCustomActionName' Hidden='yes'/>

Hi, is there a way to disable formatting of properties in strings sent to session.log in custom actions?


Cheers,


Stephen.
