Can WIX modify XML files inside an XAP package?

I am using WIX to automatically modify web.config files depending on the environment the user is installing. I did this using WixUtilExtension and a cutom "choose environment" dialog UI.

I was wondering if there is any possible way to make WIX modify xml files inside a XAP package such as ServiceReferences.ClientConfig file?

A little bit quirky, but most probably you will end up with a custom action that will:

  1. Extract the XAP (as a zip file)
  2. Load the ServiceReferences.ClientConfig from a temp folder
  3. Update the config file with the user inputs
  4. Re-zip it as XAP
