[wix-devs] Building wix310- binaries.zip

[Bob Arnson]

Seems likely. An official build requires every version of Visual Studio starting with 2008. You might be able to get away with just installing Build Tools 2013 instead.

Let's try on this list instead...


Hi,

Wix build question...

I'm trying to build the wix310-binaries.zip file locally by running:

msbuild.exe <wix-src-directory>\tools\WixRelease.relproj
/p:Configuration=Release

I'm getting an error that the build is unable to find the file "WixVSExtension.MSBuild12.dll", but it successfully finds "WixVSExtension.MSBuild14.dll" since I've got VS2015 installed.

Do I have to also install VS2013 in order to build WixVSExtension.MSBuild12.dll and successfully generate a wix310-binaries.zip file?

Thanks,
Joel
