Hi, I'm new to this list and also resonably new to WiX in general. I did read the book and created a few installers, but the real challenges are still ahead of me.
I also posted this question to the users list, but I didn't receive any replies on it. So hence I'm going to try it myself... I'm searching for a way to use the functionality contained in candle.exe and light.exe, from code. My program adjust the WiX XML during runtime and I would like to finish the packaging steps (creating the actuall MSI) within that same running process. So I was wondering if there is an API of any kind available for usage like this? Of course I searched for it myself, but I couldn't find the needed info. So assuming it doesn't exist yet, I will give it a go building one. For that I downloaded the WiX sourse an am now trying to compile it using VS2012 on Windows 2008 64bit. Should this be possible? As I get a few errors I wonder if my setup is one that should work with the WiX source project. If not, then how should my dev machine look like (which OS and which VS)? Sorry for the long story and hope that someone can help me getting started!
