You can use msbuild properties (such as $(Platform)) in the output file

There is a way using Environment variables to set a breakpoint, but I've

There is not anything built in to Wix right now that will let you use

the normal [property] syntax.
You can build a CA that will do this as well, which is what I did.

Yeah, you can do it. You'll have to manually create your tasks and schedule
them in each of your project files. That's essentially duplicating what's
int he project files for Votive. I would say, even though it's going to be
some work, you'd still be better served by building Votive projects and

InstallUtil is a DLL that uses the installer classes compiled into your
managed service. So, none of the service deployment information is going to
be in the file generated by dark. You will have to look up the
ServiceInstall element, and enter the same information you have in the self
installer.
Other installers won't use the same CustomAction to install the service. I
know the ones emitted by the VS deployments use InstallUtil to self
register. You'll need to kind of "translate" the decompiled .wxs into Wix
speak.

This is a source of lots of hot discussion on the list right now. There is
nothing that can automatically manage things for you the way you would be
used to with Visual Studio. The Windows Installer is a mighty finicky
beasty, and adhering to all of it's rules makes development such a thing a
