Or you can just use the built-in wix.targets file that we ship with wix. That will do all of the right stuff for you, including smart incremental builds. If you use Votive v3, you'll automatically get MSBuild projects, but you don't have to use Votive to still use the wix.targets file.

It is set on the commandline while calling the batch-file to start the compilation of the setup. The batch-file is called as "Pre-build event command line" in VS2005. The variable "var.Build" is set to the value of "$(ConfigurationName)". The last is homemade of VisualStudio. How can I access this "ConfigurationName" under WiX-V3? Sorry for the trouble...
