I use NAnt to call in a similar fashion but add some more options since I'm
paranoid. I also have NAnt version my WiX file on the fly using the
<XMLPoke> task after I've built my project. To clarify, I use WiX v2:
<!-- Create the MSI executable. We are using the WiX toolset to do
this.
-->
<target name="msi">
<!-- First, we compile the WiX XML file. Second, we link the
WiX object
file so that we get an MSI executable file. -->
<exec program="candle" workingdir="${project.build.dir}"
commandline="-v0
-w0 -trace -pedantic:legendary ${project.wixfilename}.wxs"/>
<exec program="light" workingdir="${project.build.dir}"
commandline="-v0
-w0 -trace -pedantic:legendary ${project.wixfilename}.wixobj"/>
</target>
