First, I know that this isn't really directly a WIX question but I figure
that a lot of you have similar requirements and maybe someone can tell me
what their experiences and solutions are. I'm attempting to use Wix to
create a database during install. I have my database setup with the Db Pro
Visual Studio SKU (Data Dude as it's sometimes referred). However, the
output seems to be only consumable by sqlcmd.exe since it uses specific
syntax in it (variable references like :setenv and $(FOO)).

 

I'm trying to use the wix sqlextension which apparently isn't using
sqlcmd.exe (I haven't investigated what data access technology it's using
just yet). 

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to use the output of data dude natively
in the wix sqlextension or alternately if there is something that will take
the sqlcmd output and translate it into the runtime sql needed to execute
against the sql server?

 

Please note that the ultimate goal is to fully integrate wix into our build
system so I am looking for an automated approach.

 

 

Thanks,

Peter
