Reverted from 4.0 to 3.9 and the requirement to set these values went away.

Thanks.  That does the trick.  

Did tooling support for automatically handing those settings get removed
somewhere between 3.7 and 4.0 work?

Yes, and ensure the Debug/Release variants don't have it without the
$(DefineConstants); part.

Thanks for response.   

So I just add that element to my <setupproject>.wixproj xml in the default,
non-configuration/platform condition controlled, <PropertyGroup>?

You can always define them:

<DefineConstants>$(DefineConstants);Platform=$(Platform);SolutionDir=$(Solut
ionDir); </DefineConstants>

Subject: [WiX-users] use of $(var.Platform) and $(var.SolutionDir)

Use of $(var.Platform) and $(var.SolutionDir) in my wix sources is
generating the following compiler errors.  

 

Undefined preprocessor variable '$(var.Platform)'.

Undefined preprocessor variable '$(var.SolutionDir)'."

 

Search hits reference
http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/votive/votive_project_referenc
es.html  suggesting it's still supported.

 

Any insights on if that support was dropped in v4 vs13 ide build story or
replaced by a different syntax?
