Command line builds still work, so it's specific to Visual Studio.  I've
submitted a bug on this.

After adding the following entry to my wix setup project using the
votive vs08 project extensions support everything works fine.

  <ItemGroup>

    <WixExtension Include="WixUIExtension">

      <HintPath>C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML
v3\bin\WixUIExtension.dll</HintPath>

    </WixExtension>

  </ItemGroup>

 

 

Later when I close and try to reopen the project I get the following
error which I can only resolve by removing the above entry

"Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component."


Can either of you build your projects from the command line or is this
specific to use inside Visual Studio? In either case, please enter a bug
so the folks working on Votive have the details of the problem.
