Well, thought so.
Would not anyone think it should be possible to build to .msi's with one
Project? With such an Scenario, one could work with paths (e.g. to
include-files) that would not need to go out of the projects scope.
Just a quick thought...
thx, Oliver

I would imagine that you would need two projects, one for each
package. You can have both projects in the same solution. However, some
versions of Visual Studio misbehave if you have multiple projects with
the same output directory (though that may just apply to C# or VB).
I would recommend using the same Fragments for the main body of
your installation to ensure that you're not making component errors. If
a resource (such as a file) is installed to the same location by two
different components (identified by component GUID), Bad Things can
happen.

Subject: [WiX-users] Votive V3 and multiple .msi support?
Hello again,
Using Votive V3 is pretty nice, though one thing is a little bit
anoying...
For our Solution we need to build 2 packages, one for the client
and one for the server application. Those packages use pretty much the
same code, thats why they are in one Solution of VS2005. Now, much
WiX-code could be shared between those to packages, too. So i thought it
would be enough, do add another .wxs file to the Votive V3 project, to
get it build a second .msi, but that does not work, Votive complains
about double entry points.
Is it possible, to share WiX-code for two Setups in one Votive
Solution? I have at least 10 files, that are used by both setup scripts.
