Hi, Some background: I'm trying to replace a legacy builder tool. The old builder tool compiled hundreds of vbp project files. Some ActiveX, some Exes, some Com+. The compilation was successful in NAnt. I also have created a WiX file that currently installs the UI DLLs and Exe and it works great on Windows XP and Vista.
One task I'm getting worried about is for Com+ components, the old builder tool would compile them and install them on the build machine in Component Services, in COM+ Applications. We then would programmatically export them using the "COM+ Application Export" API to produce the MSIs. I used heat on the COM+ Server DLLs, but it didn't help me too much since it didn't specify that the DLL is a ComPlus component. I would like to eliminate this export task and go to a pure NAnt + WiX solution. Is this possible? If so, are there any tricks to automating the start? P.S. I'm using WiX 2.0 in production and it's been wonderful. I'm hoping WiX 3.0 will get me out of this jam. COM+ is not fun to play with.
