The MPF (managed package framework, part of the Visual Studio SDK) that we
build on has a bug where they don't spin off a different thread for the
build. This means that it effectively hangs the UI, which is probably what
you were seeing. Hopefully the MPF will fix this in future builds. In the
meantime, we also have a bug logged against Votive to fix this, so we may
get to a fix before it's fixed in the MPF.

When it was working, how was the performance? The last time I worked with
this, I was working on large wxs files ( 5000+ components ) that were
autogenerated yet incorrect. The compiler was generating a lot of errors
and the build output view was having a struggle keeping up.

There are several bugs logged on this already. It broke a few builds ago and
the fix isn't in the build yet. It should work again soon. Sorry about the
hassle.

Does it not capture the output if you set the build verbosity (did I make
that word up) in VS higher?

Subject: [WiX-users] Votive v3 Build Output Progress
Is there any plans to properly link candle/light output to the build
progress in visual studio? I was trying to eval votive the other day and
it was very annoying to only get an exit code published. I couldn't find
any documentation on what the exit codes meant and there was no way of
correlating where in my source the problem originated. I had to drop down
to dos to run the compilers manually to get any type of feedback on what I
was doing wrong.
