MSI source_path

Open jjurkus opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

If I open a msi file with InstEd it shows two columns for directories, target_path and source_path. In lessmsi it only shows one column, it uses target_path for this. Would it be possible to also add the source_path column?

The reason for this is a msi file from an intel wireless driver. Currently all driver files are exported to the same directory, but source_path has a distinction between windows versions. Two examples: target_path: ProgramFiles64Folder\Intel\WiFiDrivers\Drivers\NETwtw06.sys source_path: ProgramFiles64\Intel\WiFiDrivers\Drivers\WINT\NETwtw06.sys

target_path: ProgramFiles64Folder\Intel\WiFiDrivers\Drivers\NETwsw04.sys source_path: ProgramFiles64\Intel\WiFiDrivers\Drivers\WIN7\NETwsw04.sys

Now I have to check with InstEd which files are for windows 7 and select them in lessmsi and extract these files. If one could sort on source_path in lessmsi I would not have to do that.

It is this driver: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26782/Wireless-Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software-and-Drivers-for-Windows-10- To get the msi (it's too big to attach here) you would have to run it, don't do anything in the installer, go to the temporary files dir to find the extracted msi files. After copying the files you can close the installer. If this is too convoluted I can upload the msi somewhere if you would want this.

I hope I have explained it clearly enough.
