Re: [WiX-users] WiX 3.5 Source Code

Fair enough. I guess I took silence as a lack of interest and didn't appropriately weight the fact that slow updates to CVS would prevent interest (yes, sometimes I'm slow ). I have been investigating CodePlex ever since they added Mercurial support. Given the number of comments here about the pre

Yes. One of the reasons I've been slacking on CVS is because I've been looking into other options. Mercurial is my personal favorite right now. On Sat, Apr 24, 2010 at 3:42 PM, Dieter Lunn wrote: > Has there been any discussion of moving to a different VCS like SVN, > Git or Mercurial? > > Diete

Your custom action DLL is dynamically linked and requires the Visual Studio runtime (if you install it, it works). You need to change how the DLL links to MSVCRT if you want to redistribute your installer without the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package. Alternately you may boot

Rob, The CVS issues were fixed for 3.0 but unless I am mistaken 3.5 is not fixed (updated just before this email) I have reported this several times but nothing has changed. In my opinion the issue is this is supposed to be open/community source but the source doesn't build (even last week's z

Good to hear that. The bugs were being worked on. Lots of things were being worked on. Often it takes a while for everything to get fixed. We appreciate the bug reports *and* time to fix them. On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 8:36 AM, Will Sullivan wrote: > Latest update fixes all my woes! > > -Origi

I asked a similar question sometime ago and I believe the official source is held within Microsoft and then republished to CVS. The copy in CVS tends to lag behind the wix-sources.zip as republishing is manual. There are also issues with the CVS copy in that it has quite a lot of broken binary file
