Re: [WiX-users] Fwd: GUI for wix

2013-10-30 Thread Wesley Manning
On wixtoolset.org there is a link to a book on wix.  I recommend that and the 
tutorial at wix.tramontana.co.hu.

Nope, it is all XML based,

Here are a few websites that can help:

http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/main%5Cwix_learning.html

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/310418/good-resources-for-learning-how-to-create-msi-installers-from-wix

these should help you out :)

beginner in VS, sorry

Thanks.

What do you expect in such a GUI beyond a specialized text editor?

Either way nothing will really let you skip understanding how WiX and MSI
works.

Re: [WiX-users] Fwd: GUI for wix

2013-10-29 Thread Christopher Painter


I have one but it doesn't cover the entire wix schema and is written to be used 
in a particular way. 

http://wix.codeplex.com Walkthrough and video showing it.  
http://blog.iswix.com/2013/01/iswix-20130134-released.html 

I'm always available for a 30 minute Google Hangout (or similar) session to 
give a demonstration on how to use it effectively.   Everyone I have shown it 
loves it and it really helps getting started.   You still have to ultimately 
learn MSI and Windows Installer over time though.  It's not meant to hide the 
complexity of setup development.  Only do a lot of the heavy grunt work.

http://iswix.codeplex.com/ might be an option, however you will still need to 
know the Xml format for debugging and advanced options.

Course you could just use Visual Studio 2010/2012?
