I think "by limitation" is a bit more accurate.  <smile/>

VC++ doesn't use standard project/build system and thus can't be referenced 
like everything else.  Sad.  True.

This is by design. Project references to Win32 (non-managed) projects are not 
supported.

Subject: [WiX-users] Cannot use project references variables for Win32 project

Hi all,

I am a new user to Wix. I am using Visual Studio 2005 for development. I just 
installed Wix-3.0.4318.0.

When I tried to follow the help adding reference from .NET project, it works 
fine.

Then I tried to add my real projects (using Win32) references. There is 
exclamation icon at new project reference in Solution pane. Also I cannot use 
project reference variables such as var.MyWin32Project.TargetFileName.

Could someone help me?

Thanks,
Worawit Wang
