Re: [WiX-users] Does anyone have a VSIX example

2013-11-13 Thread Phill Hogland
I do not have direct experience with this, but from studying the source code
for another purpose, I think you need to do something like:
 
   
   
   
   
  
  


or something like this:
 
   
   
   


  
  


I hope this is helpful and I apologize if I am presumptuous, not having
directly tried this.

Re: [WiX-users] Does anyone have a VSIX example

Take a look at: 

http://wixwpf.codeplex.com/ 

He uses the VSIX extension. (Waiting for VS2012 support in 3.8)

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Does anyone have a VSIX example

Any updates on this? I would also really like an example for the use of the
VsixPackage element. I mean, if it doesn't work from MSI, then how should
you use this element (and I mean why would it even exist? there must be
some use case!)

If it's really not working, why not add an extension to the Burn
bootstrapper rather than on the component level?

My scenario:
I can get the installer to compile and run, but the VSIX will not get
installed, even if Vital="yes" attribute is set. I'm using Wix 3.7 and
trying to install on Visual Studio 2012 Express and Integrated Shell.

Re: [WiX-users] Does anyone have a VSIX example

2013-11-12 Thread Gonçalo Lopes
Ok, it actually works as indicated above. I actually screwed up some
install condition during my attempts to get it to work...

One last piece of information, though. Initially I was trying to go over
the MSDN recommendations:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2010/06/09/vsix-best-practices.aspx

In here they actually mention that for MSI installed VSIX packages, you
should add the metadata element: true

This makes it so the user has to use add/remove programs to manage the VSIX
installation instead of using the extension manager.

However, if you add this to your VSIX, the WiX installer will actually fail
during installation with some unspecified error.

I had problems with installing VSIX from msi too and eventually read that you
should install 'by hand' if you are using MSI.
There is some very helpful code in the wix installer itself to help you with
registrations etc.

That error means the VsixInstaller failed. Doesn't the VsixInstaller create

Re: [WiX-users] Does anyone have a VSIX example

2013-03-13 Thread Thomas
Hi,

I'm also having some issue with this with VsixPackage. I can build the
installer fine but when it runs I get an error.

I have installed latest Wix. Does this wxs look ok?


http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";
xmlns:VSExtension="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/VSExtension";>





























I get a generic error saying "There is a problem with this Windows Installer
package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected.
Contact your support personnel or package vendor"

If I only run the vsix like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
11.0\Common7\IDE\VSIXInstaller.exe" /q /skuName:Pro /skuVersion:11.0 /admin
"C:\Dev\Temp\MyVSIX.vsix"

it works.

I have built my vsix with VS2012 SDK and tried with the option "The VSIX is
installed by Windows Installer" both enabled and not. 


please advice :)

Thanks,
//Thomas

You need a File element to carry the VSIX in the MSI.
