[wix-devs] .Net 4.7

[Rob Mensching]

Well, that is a very poor design on Windows and .NET Frameworks part.

Sean, I forget but is the support for multiple MBA prerequisites working in WiX v4? It sounds like we may need to create a permanent/syscomp MSI to distribute this file for Microsoft.

Thoughts?

Subject: [wix-devs] .Net 4.7

Hi,

I was just looking into creating a PR for the NetFxExtension parts for 
.NET 4.7 but then I read about these details:

.NET Framework 4.7 WPF features take a dependency on D3DCompiler_47.dll. 
This D3DCompiler_47.dll is not present by default in Windows 7 SP1, 
Windows 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows 2012 OS platforms. Hence these OS 
platforms require D3DCompiler_47.dll to be installed for .NET Framework 
4.7 WPF features to work as expected.

I am not sure if the 4.7 stuff can be added like all other versions or 
if I should try to integrate this dll.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Andreas
