Summary: Light task fails when OutputFile not specified
Initial Comment:
When the OuputFile property is not specified, the
light Task fails:
error MSB4018: The "Light" task failed unexpectedly.
error MSB4018: System.NullReferenceException: Object
reference not set to an instance of an object.
error MSB4018: at
Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.Build.Tasks.Light.G
enerateCommandLineCommands()
error MSB4018: at
Microsoft.Build.Utilities.ToolTask.Execute()
error MSB4018: at
Microsoft.Build.BuildEngine.TaskEngine.ExecuteTask
(ExecutionMode howToExecuteTask, Hashtable
projectItemsAvailableToTask, BuildPropertyGroup
projectPropertiesAvailableToTask, Boolean&
taskClassWasFound)
probably due to this line:
commandLineBuilder.AppendSwitchIfNotNull("-out ",
outputFile.ItemSpec);
in
protected override string GenerateCommandLineCommands()
in Light.cs (WixTasks)
