Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: votive Group: v3.0 Status: Closed Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Dennis Schridde (lindevel) Assigned to: Bob Arnson (barnson) Summary: Votive installer doesn't recognize MS Visual C++ 2005 Expres Initial Comment: The Votive installer (tried latest 2.0 and 3.0) doesn't recognize MS Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. When I try to install Votive it just tells me that MS Visual Studio is required, even though I have MS Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition (DEU) installed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Roboknight (roboknight) Date: 2008-02-06 23:44 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1615078 Originator: NO I actually get the updated message saying that MS Visual Studio 2005 Express isn't supported. However, I have Visual Studio 2005 Pro... Could there be a problem detecting the Express versions? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bob Arnson (barnson) Date: 2006-08-19 00:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=26581 The installer now allows you to install the WiX core toolset without Votive. Votive doesn't support Express, so the Votive feature won't be available unless VS Standard or higher is installed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bob Arnson (barnson) Date: 2006-08-19 00:32 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=26581 The installer now allows you to install the WiX core toolset without Votive.

I'm reopening so we don't lose the request. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dennis Schridde (lindevel) Date: 2006-07-05 23:15 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=778819 Oh, thanks for the answer. Perhaps you could add a note to the message, saying Express versions are not supported? Thanks, Dennis ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Bob Arnson (barnson) Date: 2006-07-05 23:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=26581 The Express Editions of Visual Studio don't support extensibility, so Votive can't integrate into them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=642714&aid=1517546&group_id=105970 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
