WiX with dynamical resources -


we developing software tool sold other software companies redistributed. deploy our software wix. requests our clients use own style msi (mainly icons, images , titles). not want let customers packaging since sophisticated. possible create msi package wix, resources images , strings can loaded dynamically external resource later on.

i found wix: dynamically add features gives solution dynamically add functionality, not change existing parts.

ok, here comment answer (i hope helpful ;-)).

as don't know exact use case, would:

  1. create base msi containing binaries, bitmaps , icons (in binary-table)
  2. after building msi, invoke vbs-script rerplacing binaries , bitmaps ones of customer.
  3. send modified msi customer.

if changes rather static create transform file (.mst) containing modifications customer. can merge transform base msi file using e.g. wimerge.vbs windows sdk located in v7.1\samples\sysmgmt\msi\scripts. simpler , can integrated build process.
