I have a problem generating a setup bootstrapper using Visual Studio 2008 and Wix 3.0.3711. My Wix project file (.wixproj) contains these lines in order to generate a setup.exe bootstrapper that has .NET framework 2.0 as a prerequisite: <ItemGroup> <BootstrapperFile Include="Microsoft.Net.Framework.2.0"> <ProductName>Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0</ProductName> </BootstrapperFile> </ItemGroup>
<Target Name="Bootstrapper" Inputs="$(OutDir)$(TargetFileName)" Outputs="$(OutDir)\Setup.exe" Condition=" '$(OutputType)'=='package' " > <GenerateBootstrapper ApplicationName="My Application" ApplicationFile="$(TargetFileName)" BootstrapperItems="@(BootstrapperFile)" ComponentsLocation="HomeSite" Path="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper" OutputPath="$(OutputPath)" Culture="en-US" /> </Target> The problem is that if I don't specify the Path attribute in the GenerateBootstrapper element then I get an error saying that the Microsoft.Net.Framework.2.0 package could not be found. This used to work without the Path in Visual Studio 2005 and Wix 3.0.2925. I guess the problem is that the Wix 3.0 integration with Visual Studio 2008 does not setup up the search path to the bootstrapper packages in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper". Could this be fixed please, so I don't have to specify a Path?
