[wix-users] Force update of Single File

[Bryan Dam]

The problem being that we use heat to generate the files and I wasn't sure how to hard-code a value for a single file in the scenario.  Thanks for the info, the piece I was missing was that you can apply/pass an XSLT to heat.

Not sure I understand what you mean, but you can specify the ForceVersion per file.

Also you can use XSLT transform to add it to a specific file during heat

I ran up against the same problem as the OP but we were using heat to generate the file list.  Luckily for us it was the third build number and waiting out the next release made the problem go away.  In a scenario like that ... can we specify an override for just one file?
