Yesterday, I sent a pull request to add the UNOFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD property.
This allowed the ability to compile WiX such that the build can be used on
other machines, while skipping the requirements of OFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD. Rob
declined it, so I thought I would explain why I need to create my own build
that can be used on other machines.
I am getting ready to release an installer with an MBA that relies on the 4
pull requests that I have submitted against wix39. Like all MBA's, it
references BootstrapperCore.dll. This means that if I build my installer
without an official build, then the installer can only run on the build machine.
There's two different ways to solve this problem. One is to address the
problems created by strong naming BootstrapperCore.dll, which is what my pull
request was trying to do.
The other is to incorporate my changes into an official build. Since we're all
volunteers, I don't see this as a valid solution.
