I use ANT, but the concepts are probably the same.
My task just calls candle.exe and light.exe with exec. Look up the
candle/light command line options in the WiX help.
My build file looks like this. You'll need to create properties that
are appropriate for you.
<target name="build" depends="clean" >
<sequential>
<!-- "Compile" the WiX project -->
<delete file="${wix.object}"/>
<exec executable="${wix.dir}/candle.exe"
failonerror="true" >
<arg value="${ant.project.name}.wxs"/>
</exec>
<!-- "Link" the WiX project -->
<delete file="${msi.file}"/>
<exec executable="${wix.dir}/light.exe"
failonerror="true" >
<arg value="-ext"/>
<arg value="WixUIExtension"/>
<arg value="-ext"/>
<arg value="WixUtilExtension"/>
<arg value="-cultures:en-us"/>
<!-- Suppress validation to avoid exception -->
<arg value="-sval"/>
<arg value="-out"/>
<arg value="${msi.file}"/>
<arg value="${wix.object}"/>
</exec>
</sequential>
Nothing too fancy here.
