I'm chaining several MSIs and believe it or not, I want to show the UIs of each package. Is there a way to turn that on/off per package (and subsequently remove the default burn UI's install location?)? I've tried looking at a workaround where I use but I can't seem to find anything that poin

2010-09-08 Thread Hoyt, David
Hello, I'm having trouble finding documentation on how to add an include and lib path to MSVC's paths. I essentially have an SDK I'm setting up and I have a large number of C headers and libs - so it'd be nice if it could automatically add itself to the list of paths. I'm not sure how well it w

Does anyone know of a good tutorial or a place to get examples that show how to properly register a VSX package? I created a C# subproject along w/ some project templates. I tried using an example that was auto-generated by the VSSDK Assist program, but it looks old (even though I downloaded th
