Thanks for the info.

I'm already approved on the assignment agreement. I uploaded the code change via a tracker. The entry is at:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1743864&group_id=105970&atid=642717

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help it through the process.

Thanks,
Kevin

I tried browsing CVS via the web interface, and it matches what I got via WinCVS, but not the source download for 3015. Am I pointing to the wrong server/module or something?No, it looks like it hasn't gotten updated recently. Sorry for the earlier misdirect -- it looks like using the sources .zip is right approach.
- Once I resolve my version issues, how do I submit a set of files for code review? It appears that a Tracker is the preferred method. Is that correct? How do I package up my code changes to attach to a tracker?First step is to get an assignment agreement. Rob's MSDN blog is down but I believe the trick is to e-mail to start the process. Then open a bug or feature request and attach the changes. You can use a patch-making tool or just attach a .zip file of the changed files.--

Thanks Bob,

I'm well down that road now, I've written my
extension/compiler/decompiler/tables (all modelled on the SQL extension) Im
just stuck at how to generate my wixlib for my extension...
Can you send any help my way? I cant find any documentation on the
steps/files required and their purposes...

Thanks

Absolutely. That's the easiest way to get well-formed data into custom
tables.

There's no doc to speak of, just the existing code. The WiX extensions
all have binary .wixlibs as embedded resources. Then you override
GetLibrary to return it. So the extension has to be built last: First
build any CA DLLs, then build the .wixlib that includes the DLL, then
embed it in the extension.

Does that help?

Thanks -- I'll review the code on WiX night on Thursday.

Thanks Bob,
I've managed to get it all packaged up and working, so that now all I have
to put in my wxs is something like this...








And it works fine... but I have to put my custom action DLL into my setup
directory before running light, I assume thats because I need to somehow
tell lit.exe to embed my CA dll into the wixlib?
How do I do that?

Thanks for all your help Bob
