In the "Add Reference" dialog for a WiX project in Visual Studio, Web Deployment Projects (*.wdproj) are not included in the list of projects that can be selected as project references. If I manually add a project reference (i.e. open the WiX project file in a text editor and enter the project name, path, and GUID), I receive an error message upon building stating "The target 'GetTargetPath' does not exist in the project".
I can add a target to the Web Deployment Project as follows (based on how other Microsoft targets files appear), though, to eliminate the error message: <Target Name="GetTargetPath" Outputs="$(TargetPath)" /> I'm not sure if that is an appropriate solution, though. How should the "GetTargetPath" issue be addressed? Would it be something on the WiX side or the Web Deployment Project side? http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2008/01/25/announcing-rtw-of-visual-studio-2008-web-deployment-projects-wdp.aspx Link to Web Deployment Projects Thank you, Matthew -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Using-Web-Deployment-Projects-as-Project-References-in-WiX-Visual-Studio-Projects-tp15816501p15816501.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
