Hi, All of you may know we are using Wix Installer to create Windows MSI package for cloud stack. I am trying to integrate Wix tool with maven build process. I found the following 2 plugins for the same.
We are using the following commands from wix tool set. 1. Heat - To harvest a directory 2. Candle - to compile the xmls and create obj files 3. Light - to create msi package http://incubator.apache.org/npanday/docs/1.2/plugins/wix-maven-plugin/ https://bitbucket.org/joxley/wix-maven-plugin The later one is extension of the first one. Both the plugins support the following goals as of now 1. Candle 2. Light We are missing "heat" goal in the above plugins, which is needed for our packaging. I am thinking to write our own plugin to support this "heat" goal by extending the second plugin above. Is it ok to write our own plugins for this? If yes then where should we put this plugin's code in the code base. I mean which module this should go in(Can we put this code in cloud stack code base at all)? -Damodar
