If you just want to add a new heat collector type, you don't need to build WiX for that. You just write a HeatExtension & HarvesterExtension (properly packaged with an AssemblyDefaultHeatExtension assembly attribute).
Once you get your code working, (avoiding .NET 3.0/3.5/4.0 features if possible if you are intending to place it into WiX directly) then you have two choices: 1. Release them as an extension to the WiX toolset. 2. Get WiX building and contribute them directly to WiX. Both the WixUtilExtension and WixVSExtension supply Heat/Harvester extensions alongside the "traditional" WixExtension, but an extension to Heat doesn't require the WixExtension part if it isn't applicable. -Blair -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Krebs [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 24, 2011 2:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] Can not make.bat Am 1/22/2011 6:00 PM, schrieb Bob Arnson: > As documented in WiX.chm, only the latest NAnt understands the "special" > SDK that VS uses, so you have to tell it about it. Sorry didn't get that. I have to use the latest NAnt? And I have to tell it about it? We would like to add a functionality to heat to collect files from a directory tree by giving a file extension. I think this has been asked for several times. Is there a way to get a usable heat source code to work in Visual Studio without all the hassle with NAnt...?
