Hi,

 

I am here in search of relief from the InstallShield "treacle machine".
WiX looks like an answer to my heartache of trying to maintain an
Installation project I inherited a few years ago.

 

I have read the tutorial and the first few bits of the Manual - I have
installed WiX 3.5 and use Visual Studio 2010 to develop.

 

The installation project I inherited has 30+ components which fit into
two installable Features - Option one installs everything, two installs
a subset.

 

The way to go with WiX seems to be to create an overall wxs file and
have a sub file for each component, but the Tutorial recommends
Fragments (<Fragment />) and the manual talks about Merge Module
(<Module />) So which should I use?

 

And another minor difference the Tutorial says you only need one extra
line to add a Fragment - but you need two to add a Module
