[WiX-users] adding an x64 platform

Hi: I have a solution to which I'm trying to add an x64 platform. When I do this, neither the project I have as .wixlibs or .msi's add a 64 bit platform they all stay as x86. Could this be added, or is there a work around? Cheers Sean. -

Hi Neil, I could repro this. Attched is my simplified repro based on the production code (Product.wxs and WebServiceSetup.wxi). It sets up a web application (but without any content, just to simplify repro), then modifies the corresponding node in applicationHost.config with XmlConfig. So it ca

Re: [WiX-users] Is there a way to use WiX 3.0 with VS 2008 and WiX 3.5 (3.6) with VS 2010 at one PC?

Re: [WiX-users] ComponentSearch and *

Funny, I've used the Upgrade table in Merge Modules ( msidbUpgradeAttributesOnlyDetect ) for about 5 years now without any problems.  There's no reason why it "can't"  be done.  Christopher Painter, Author of Deployment Engineering Blog Have a hot tip, know a secret or read a really good threa
