I did try reinstalling with the latest 3.0 setup from sourceforge, and 2008 still doesn't recognize the wixproj projects. I took a look at the votive setup though, and it looks like it's just a matter of a few registry settings that'll have to be duplicated. I'd rather not remove VS 2005 at the moment, but I might give it a shot in virtual PC if I can't get the registry change fix to work. All of the wix binaries are there, I just need to make sure that VS2008 can recognize the project types, XML schemas, etc.

[...] On Rob Mensching's blog, he stated that the community technology preview for the next release of VS.NET is incorporating WiX 3.0, so I'd expect that WiX 3.0 would work well with VS.NET 2008. However, I try not to install two editions of VS.NET on one box at the same time. If you have a spare machine try installing VS.NET 2008 on that machine along with WiX 3.0/Votive and see if that works. If it does then you know its an issue with installing things side-by-side and not a basic compatability problem. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://www.xmission.com/~legalize/book/download/index.html> Legalize Adulthood! <http://blogs.xmission.com/legalize/> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
