Editing Difxapp Options - Symantec WINDOWS INSTALLER EDITOR 8.0 Reference

Windows Installer Editor Reference
Not all lines are editable, only lines that have name-value attributes. (Example:
<compilation defaultLanguage="c#" />.) The Attribute Editor dialog box appears.
5. To edit an XML attribute:
a. Select the attribute in the top list box.
b. In Dynamic Value, type a new value to replace the current value at run time.
You can enter bracketed Windows Installer property names. You must have
added a mechanism elsewhere in the installation to populate the property.
(Example: Use the Custom Property dialog; see
Dialog on page 429. Or use properties defined in
page 519.)
c. Alternatively, you can select a property name from Property and click the
Insert into Dynamic Value button.
6. Click OK on the Attribute Editor dialog box when finished.
At run time, the attribute is replaced with the dynamic value you specified. Windows
Installer properties are resolved to their value.

Editing DIFxApp Options

When an installation contains a device driver that meets Microsoft Driver Install
Frameworks (DIFx) driver requirements, you can use Microsoft's Driver Install
Frameworks for Applications (DIFxApp) to install the driver.
See Creating a Device Driver Installation
You edit the DIFxApp options on the Driver tab of the File Details dialog box. This tab
appears only if all of the following are true:
The DIFxApp merge module has been added to the installation.
Note
Early versions of this merge module might be named "Binaries."
You selected an .INF file on the Files page.
The .INF file is the key path of the component.
To edit DIFxApp options
1. Double-click the device driver's .INF file on the Files page or on the Components or
Features tab in Setup Editor.
The File Details dialog box appears.
2. Click the Driver tab.
3. Complete the dialog box:
Use DIFxApp to install this driver file
When you mark this check box, the other options become enabled. They are all
marked by default.
