True it's a single installer and I even indicated that I can go back to v3.7 for what I wanted to achieve with a single installer. So this is something I already aware of. My question is how can I implement a Bootstrapper in wix v3.8 so as to get an exe output that setupbld.exe provided in wix v3.7 (please see details in the original question)? Most importantly I am willing to learn the Bootstrapper programming, in the first instance to fill in the void left by setupbld.exe, and beyond that to[hopefully] apply the full potential of Bootstrapper programming (installing prerequisites and chained MSI, etc).
How should I approach this in v3.8? (this repeated question also intended to correct a typo in my original question - "I[How] should I approach this?") > Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2014 06:28:54 -0700 > From: rw1...@hotmail.com > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Help with BA Programming > > Dan, > If you only have one msi, you probably don't need to utilize a bootstrapper > application. > The only time you'd need to utilize the BA is if you want to chain multiple > msi's. > > It sounds like you only have one installer. > > You can create any kind of MBA to interface with the given bootstrapper > application.
