Thank you for your reply.
Just a follow up question, how does CPack invoke candle and light? On Windows 7, using Process Monitor I do see these executables being spawned into a separate process when doing cpack -G "WIX".

        Using CPack to generate a msi using a custom wix template. I
        would like to add an util:XmlFile element to the template but
        this require candle and light to be executed with the option
        "-ext  WixUtilExtension". Does anyone know of a way to add this
        option to the existing version of cmake\cpack? Does Cmake
        provide any utility to modify an xml file?

         

      
    
    Currently it is not possible to pass custom arguments to the WiX
    commands executed by CPack.
