Re: [WiX-users] Which is best to use in my case: XmlFile or XmlConfig?

[TimM <Tim...@sm...>]

Okay I tried the following:
<util:XmlConfig Id="ServiceInfo" Action="create"
ElementPath="/configuration/appSettings/"
                        Name="ServiceInfo" Value="[LYNC_SERVER_ADDRESS]"
                        File="[INSTALLDIR]RemoteInk.exe.config" On="install"
Sequence="9" />

This one did nothing at all, no errors, but did not update file. So I tried
the following:
<util:XmlFile Id="ServiceInfo" Action="setValue"
ElementPath="/configuration/appSettings" 
                    Name="ServiceInfo" Value="[LYNC_SERVER_ADDRESS]"
		    File="[INSTALLDIR]RemoteInk.exe.config" />

And this one did create the entry, but not how I was expecting it to be
created. Above is what I wanted/needed, but what was created with this line
is as follows:
<configuration>
  ... 
  <appSettings ServiceInfo="net.tcp://example.com:54321/RemoteInk">
</configuration>

So first it placed it on the same line as the start of the appSettings
element and 2nd it is not in the format that I wanted, which should have
been:
    <add key="ServiceInfo" value=net.tcp://example.com:54321/RemoteInk />

So again has anyone created new entries in an application .config file and
if so then could you let me know what I am doing wrong or missing
altogether?
