Hi Justin...
Still doesn't seem to work... At least not when the dependent
project is another Wix project. $(var.<project>.TargetPath) is on both
lists as *supposedly* supported, but when I have one wix projects
merging the output msms of other projects, I just get variable-undefined
errors.
Would be a nice feature...
Thanks
Mark

Thanks for the note. Here's what I responded to your comment on the
blog:
Mark,
This should also work in Votive 2.0, although the preprocessor
definitions may be slightly different than the ones I presented here.
Take a look at Rob's MSDN article here
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/aa302186.aspx#wixsetup_topic9) for
more information on how to do this in Votive 2.0.
Sorry about the confusion. I should have pointed this out in the blog
entry.
Thanks,
Justin

Thanks, Justin. I just commented on the blog, but I'll say the same
here:
If I follow the add-reference instructions above, I get a dialog saying
"Sorry, project references are not yet supported in Votive. If you want
to add the code, by all means! :)"
Votive 2.0.5325
If I right-click the project itself and choose Project Dependencies, all
of the right dependencies are already listed; unfortunately, that
doesn't seem to connect to these variable definitions.
I presume this is a 3.0-only thing?
Thanks
Mark

Okay, are the preprocessor variables listed in
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa302186.aspx
only applicable to source projects?
We have some Wix projects that bundle a bunch of msms into an msi. The
main project has project dependencies on all of the othe Wix projects
but when I put in something like
<Merge Id="Module1" Language="1033" src="$(var.Module1.TargetPath)"
DiskId="1" />
(where Module1 is the name of a dependency Wix project) I get an error
that $(var.Module1.TargetPath) is undefined.
We're using Votive 2.0.5325
Thanks
Mark
