[wix-users] Transform for HarvestDirectory Visual Studio{

[Steven Packer]

Thank you for this information. It works great! Now I will be studying it
for a while to see if I can figure out how it works.  I have a lot to learn!

I'm sorry here is the transform (which I have posted in the past) <?xml
version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--  Interesting Code from this post:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19515397/deploy-multiple-wcf-webservices-
with-wix-toolset-wrong-svc-files
which I then modified by changing the search and replace, to look for
'!wix.' and replace with'!(bindpath.'.
This change allows me to us %HarvestDirectory.PreprocessorVariable to
specify the bindpath name.-->

Subject: [wix-users] Transform for HarvestDirectory Visual Studio{

Hi,

 

I have created a VS .wixproj and have added a Harvestdirectory to the Target
of the project.  I have been successful in harvesting the files and building
the msi.  However I am using PreprocessorVariable of wix.mysource which
generates 

!(wix.mysource)\???.

 

I am trying to write a transform that will substitute !(bindpath. For !(wix.
I am having a great deal of trouble figuring out how this is done.  I am new
to wix and .xsl.  Can anyone give me an example of how I might accomplish
this task?

 

Steven
