Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Python for the custom action Yes. I think it is good to use IronPython in the Windows world :) The main point in my idea is to use only scripting language for setup developer. I believe that using a compliled dll for a custom action is a bad smell. We need to implement a wix extension (e.g. based on IronPython) to support scripting approach. BTW: Wix extension dlls are OK - remove duplications between several setup projects:) 2009/7/15 Brian Rogers <rogers.br...@gmail.com> > Hey Konstantin, > > You could develop a managed custom action and use IronPython if that works > for you.
