The "magic inside" is the following line at the bottom of the csproj file (AFTER the line that imports the Microsoft.CSharp.targets file): <Import Project="$(WixCATargetsPath)" />
That line requires the following properties and items be set in your csproj file: CustomAction.config must be included as a Content item in an item group. WixCATargetsPath must be a property defined either in the csproj file or otherwise defined for MSBuild when it runs your file and must be the path to the Wix.CA.targets file. -----Original Message----- From: Elfe Xu [mailto:elf...@microsoft.com] Sent: Friday, June 11, 2010 10:56 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to integrate into TFS if the wix project has managed CA written with DTF? Hi all, I've learnt that to make a wix project work with TFS, I need to edit the .wixproj file, and also the TFSBuild project by adding ConfigurationToBuild to Mixed Platforms. I also learnt that if I have a C# library project, and I want to use it as custom action library, I need to run MakeSfxCA to package the binary. Now my question is: how to put them together? What should I do to integrate my wix project into TFS, if it has CustomAction that refer to a C# library project? I tried to write a CA project with the C# CA template in VS, and find it does the package automatically. I checked for the wix and cs project files, but find nothing. Seems it has some magic inside. Anyone can provide some instructions for me to follow?
