Hi guys,
As in the question, does anyone know why this happens and what I can do to stop it from happening? I'm trying to generate a whole bunch of localization transforms for one MSI and I'm doing it by using the MSI API function GenerateTranform. It takes two MSI and produces a transform that represents the difference between the two. I'd assumed that I could change the localization of the setup project, rebuild and create a transform but on top of the UI language changes I also see that the file sequence has changed for most of the files. This is a big problem because it totally screws the installation up (as you'd probably expect).
Failing that, has anyone got any other suggestions for creating localization transforms quickly and easily in my circumstances. I could go down the WIX route as I'd then be in full control of the file sequence, but it represents quite a lot of extra work at this stage in my project, particularly when the VS setup project does everything I've needed up until now.
Cheers,
Chris Chambers.
