Re: vs 2010 and 2012
My last reason for using VS 2010 whilst still having VS 2012 installed was due to lack of Crystal Reports support in the new IDE. Thankfully, they've finally released an update that supports 2012 in the last couple of days. So now I no longer have a reason to use VS 2010.

RE: vs 2010 and 2012
Yeah; I think Oleg's taking good care of us there. But the question is whether he will make all features of WiX available through his framework, especially if you have seen the proposal for WiX 4.0; it's a lot more involved with support for different deployment technologies like nupkg, appx, and others, so WixSharp could have a lot of catching up to do.

Re: vs 2010 and 2012
Wallace, Craig et al You may recall a few months ago I was stung by this subtle and easily missed change. As a migration test I opened all of my solutions in VS2012 and ran a bulk bouild and I was surprised when it hiccuped on dozens of vdproj files! It's a serious impediment to quickly flipping over to VS2012 for all our live development. There is a vdproj to WiX xml converter, but it produces reams of unreadable xml and I didn't bother persuing it further. The output is useful as a tutorial however. I was pleasantly surprised by how well WiX was integrated into VS2010 and managed to get a couple of simple setup projects working reasonably quickly thanks to their good help and examples. However, old setup projects with custom dialogs in them have me blocked at the moment as you have to design the dialogs manually with x,y positions and lengths, a really tedious and fragile process (is there a WiX dialog designer??). I also haven't yet cracked how to make a WiX installer that behaves like an old IIS setup project. I spent all weeked in VS2012 and I notice that WiX setup projects now come out of the box. I haven't tried one yet. Greg

RE: vs 2010 and 2012
Most definitely yes. Be aware, however, that VS 2012 will install 4.5 over the top of 4.0, so make sure that you test your applications on a 4.0 only box before deploying.
