[wix-users] Trying to build 3.10 and have build errors... help! [P]

Thu Dec 17 12:15:29 PST 2015

I don't ever use the VS command prompt. I always just msbuild from the root folder of the wix source tree. (IE, eliminate the vsvars.)

I also only ever run the one time build once, as an elevated process.  For source builds, I never build elevated.  I forget the exact command line parameters I had to use on my 2015 build machine, I'll see if I can remember to dig mine up later tonight when I have access to that VM.

I really would appreciate help on this... I don't want to uninstall VS 2015 since we are upgrading to VS 2015...

Hi folks,
I have Visual Studio 2010/2012/2013/2015 installed I was using 2012 to build WiX 3.10 before now using VS 2015 (recently installed it)Original problem was that when I installed VS 2015 I did not install C++, so went back and installed C++ for VS 2015 (is not selected by default :( The way I build is:

rem build WIX
if exist "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" call "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat"
if exist "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" goto varset if exist "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" call "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat"
if exist "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" goto varset :varset 

rem one time run
rem call "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\msbuild.exe" .\tools\OneTimeWixBuildInitialization.proj /p:Configuration=Release rem Normal build call "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\msbuild.exe" wix.proj /p:VisualStudioVersion=14.0 /p:Configuration=Release 

in an elevated cmd prompt:
I get these errors:
