[WiX-users] Use WiX with TFSBuild without installing WiX on buildmachine?
Just like the subject line says ... We've got a couple of dozen installers that build with a variety of versions of WiX [haven't had time to update all of them to v3.7] ... and we're moving all of our packaging builds to TFSBuild from a variety of methods [older TFSBuild scripts, batch files, etc.] ... What is the best way to be able to use a specific version of WiX for a specific package build without having to install WiX on the buildmachine or having a specific buildmachine tied to a specific version of WiX ?

The WiX.chm has documentation how to check the WiX toolset into your source control for your build system using the binaries.zip file. -Original Message- From: DexterSinister [mailto:dma...@nt4hire.com] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2013 10:47 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Use WiX with TFSBuild without installing WiX on buildmachine?

Another way to do it would be to generate a NuGet package. If there is interest in this, I could help create such a package. (I make quite a few for internal use--just haven't done it to Wix). -- John Merryweather Cooper Build Install Engineer - ESA Jack Henry Associates, Inc.® Shawnee Mission, KS 66227 Office: 913-341-3434 x791011 jocoo...@jackhenry.com www.jackhenry.com -Original Message- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: Monday, January 28, 2013 12:53 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
