Running the Tool:
|
|
|
|
|
|
This tool takes as input a directory of WiX (v2), CMI, or INF files
|
|
and produces a file that lists all the conflicts between their
|
|
registry entries. The file it gives back contains a list of conflicts
|
|
and the summed total conflicts between each pair of WiX files. It
|
|
expects the files to have the extension .wxs, .man, or .inf. The tool
|
|
can be called as
|
|
|
|
./AppReader.exe file | -d directory
|
|
|
|
Note that it does not do a recursive walk of the directory tree
|
|
(trivial to add, but I just haven't done it); all the files must be at
|
|
the top level of the directory at which you point it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Output Format:
|
|
|
|
|
|
The conflict lines look like:
|
|
|
|
C: <registry key name>: <number of conflicting wxs files>
|
|
<app number> writes <reg value>
|
|
.
|
|
.
|
|
.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The app numbers are to save space: there is a name table at the end of
|
|
the file that gives the mapping from number to app. Note that if
|
|
there is a conflict on a key/value pair, every app that writes to that
|
|
key is listed, even if most of them do not conflict.
|
|
|
|
After the conflict listings, there is a list with three columns. The
|
|
columns, in order, are <App 1 Number>, <App 2 Number>, and <Number of
|
|
conflicts>.
