The wixproj file is a MSBuild targets file. MSBuild .targets files do not need to have a .targets extension. You can put the HarvestDirectory/HeatFile targets in a .targets file (named as you wish) and then in the .wixproj file add a 'Import' statement with the path of the file. My code that is specific to particular project I put in a harvest.targets file in that project folder. For code that is common to many projects I put in a Common.targets folder (at a common path) (Actually I have one common targets file for bundles, another for msi setup projects, and one for signing, etc.
<Import Project="..\Common\Targets\Common.targets" /> <Import Project="Harvest.targets" /> I include the harvest.targets file in my project with Build Action set to none. However I have noticed that any change to a .targets file does not take effect until the solution is closed and reloaded (generaly I just close and reload VS). -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Doing-an-Include-file-for-HeatDirectory-and-HeatFile-tasks-tp7600501p7600503.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
