I have been studying the WiX 3.7 source and tried to create a MBA by starting a c# library project and then moving files from WixBA (changing instances of "WixBA" to "fooBA"). I also read various tutorials about creating a MBA including: http://bryanpjohnston.com/2012/09/28/custom-wix-managed-bootstrapper-application/ http://blogs.msdn.com/b/heaths/archive/2011/10/28/introducing-managed-bootstrapper-applications.aspx
And doing so I solved several problems, but I have yet to get a clean build due to the following error: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.WinFX.targets(269,9): error MC1000: Unknown build error, 'Cannot resolve dependency to assembly 'wix, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=ce35f76fcda82bad' because it has not been preloaded. When using the ReflectionOnly APIs, dependent assemblies must be pre-loaded or loaded on demand through the ReflectionOnlyAssemblyResolve event.' One comment I read said to ignore the ReflectionOnly comment in the error and create a Reference to the 'wix' assembly, but I did not figure out how to do that. I have limited C# experience so I thought that I might learn from hacking existing code as an experiment (but not for production purposes).
