I for one am using Visual Studio to author and build my WiX projects. Why? Because all of my other projects are part of the same Visual Studio solution as my WiX projects.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] LGHT0284: Support for more than 260 characthers inPath? Visual Studio?, What have that to do with this? MSBuild is building the project, if MSBuild also have an issue, that's another thing, this is in the linking phase, not during authoring of the wixfiles.. And who is using visualstudio for authoring wix projects anyhow?, absolutely no help in using VS for that, notepad++ is way better (or any other editor for that matter.)
