I have two builds of my main executable: standard
and premium
. For simplicity of development they are built from a single solution in Visual Studio by changing a special #define
variable.
Now I'm curious if it's possible to do the same with the WiX installer for this project?
I basically need to control the inclusion of only one of the following xml nodes:
1: For standard
version MSI:
<Product Name='Foobar 1.0 - Standard'
Id='8E9CF27F-B92F-4CB3-BBA0-0AAE5376D5EB'
UpgradeCode='20A89269-D206-490D-9134-349594662619'
Language='1033'
Codepage='1252'
Version='1.0.0'
Manufacturer='Acme Ltd.'>
and later:
<Component Id='MainExecutable' Guid='E1FE2BBE-C72D-4F27-A66D-78417F597D7A'>
<File Id='FoobarEXE' Name='FoobarAppStandardl10.exe' DiskId='1' Source='FoobarApplStandard10.exe' KeyPath='yes'>
2: For premium
version MSI:
<Product Name='Foobar 1.0 - Premium'
Id='8E9CF27F-B92F-4CB3-BBA0-0AAE5376D5EC'
UpgradeCode='20A89269-D206-490D-9134-34959466261A'
Language='1033'
Codepage='1252'
Version='1.0.0'
Manufacturer='Acme Ltd.'>
and then:
<Component Id='MainExecutable' Guid='E1FE2BBE-C72D-4F27-A66D-78417F597D7B'>
<File Id='FoobarEXE' Name='FoobarAppPremiuml10.exe' DiskId='1' Source='FoobarApplPremium10.exe' KeyPath='yes'>
PS. I can obviously make 2 WiX projects... I'm seeking a way to do it in one.
I found it. Here it is for whoever else is interested.
