Re: [WiX-users] Dynamically Pick File Source Location

Hi Pavan,

How are your running the automated WIX process ? If you are just running a
batch file from DOS, use the command:
SET MyVariable=BUILD69 (or use any DOS trick to generate the number for you)

Systems like FinalBuilder, MSBuild, or BuildForge will allow you to do that
automatically.

Yo don't need/want a CA for this !!!!

The idea is that the source path is defined as a variable and resolved at
build time by WIX. A Custom Action will run AFTER the setup is already
packaged and running, therefore, the Source Path was already resolved.

Just let me know how you are building your WIX solution, and I will send you
a working sample.
