It's kinda' neat to see other languages built on top of the WiX language (if WiX is a 4GL, does that make them 5GL)? ClickThrough is one example of a higher language in the WiX toolset but it still uses XML... which seems to be a negative for some people. I don't care for the syntax presented in WixSharp and would much take the VS Intellisense for XML any day. But I obviously don't have issues with angle brackets. <wink/>
The thing to ensure is that the higher level languages are still generating correct code. I was a little concerned by the articles about WixSharp because the example WiX code was not very good. If the higher level language generates that kind of WiX code then your trading off new syntax for subpar output. Not a trade I would make... but I obviously don't have issues with angle brackets. <grin/> -----Original Message----- From: Jody Belka [mailto:lists-...@pimb.org] Sent: Wednesday, December 17, 2008 08:24 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Wix# Haven't played about with it myself at all, but was wondering if anyone else had seen this recent project?
