Yes. If you don't have it you'll get an msbuild error saying it can't find $(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\WiX\v3.x\Wix.targets.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Best way to invoke Wix from a TFS build workflow? Are you building Projects that exist in VS2008 or 2010? If so, we simply created the WiXprojects and it was all handled automatically. In our case, we created a separate project that handled the build of the install packages, using MergeModules from several places, including some of our own. For that separate solution, we used relative pathing to the .MSM files.

I need to build some MSIs with Wix during our TFS build. Our current TFS build is using the Windows Workflow XAML files to declare the build logic. What's the best way to invoke Wix from there? Directly invoking the process from an activity? Going down to a powershell script and calling it from there? Are there any custom Wix activities to use? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
