Something along the lines of this:
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/install_dotnet.htm ?

Also, the Windows SDK has a tool (WiDiffDb.vbs) that does a diff between two
MSIs. Either smoke.exe (from the WiX toolset) or MsiVal2 or even the Orca
tool (from the SDK) can run validations.

Subject: [WiX-users] Setup.exe


Hello everyone,
 
I had typically been building with devenv.exe within the Visual Studio IDE.
The couple *.vdproj projects I'm working with produced both an MSI and a
setup.exe after building. I am attempting to use WIX to build the MSI for
automated daily builds right now and have decompiled the current MSI with
dark.exe to produce a *.wxs file. I was also able to build the MSI again
using MSBuild. 
 
The problem is that I do not see a clear way to produce the setup.exe again
as well. Can someone point me to some reccommended options to do this?
 
Also, now that I have been able to build my MSI is there a way to validate
and/or do a diff against the original one that I decompiled originally?
 
Thank you,
Chris
