I wouldn’t want to cut out WixStdBA…
Being in two different repos means that there is more effort involved keeping
the two in sync. My hope was that someday we could merge WixExtBA into the
official repository. WixExtBA should just be extending the functionality of
WixStdBA, but I honestly haven’t looked at how deep WixExtBA has modified the
original source.

What errors are you getting during the full build?
We had a discussion about this in the past. Please, please, please help us root
cause (and maybe fix) the issues that are in the WiX toolset so that everyone
benefits. Pulling code out means we're splitting effort on improving the WiX
toolset. Honestly, I'd prefer we all work on a single solution to make it
really good and pool the limited resources we have today.
Alternatively, I suppose I could cut out the wixstdba and suggest that people
use wixextba. That means people would need to go two different places to get a
unified solution. However, that would minimize duplicate effort. I haven't
thought this idea through completely but should we do that?

That’s kind of the problem – I’m getting syntax errors when trying to do a full
build, while building just wixstdba or Neil’s wixextba solution works. For now
I’ll make my changes against the wixextba.

IIRC, the src\burn\burn.sln file will build everything correctly *after*
building all of the WiX toolset once.

http://wixextba.codeplex.com/ this might be a useful place to start.

Subject: [WiX-devs] Building replacement wixstdba from within Visual Studio
I'm working on WixStdBA, and wondering what the minimum amount of code I need
to build is. The wixstdba project creates WixStdBA.dll which doesn't seem to be
distributed, so I guess it gets linked into something else that I can then
replace in C:\Program Files (x86)\Wix Toolset v3.8.
Can someone tell me which project (or projects) that is? I've not had any luck
finding where the DLL is used.
