A wixproj is an msbuild file, so it should build directly from the command line (msbuild blob.wixproj).
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/msbuild.htm We check the whole solution into TFS and use TFS build to automate. Just add the solution into the tfsbuild.proj e.g. <SolutionToBuild Include="$(SourceRoot)\src\Sdl\TranslationStudio\Sdl.TranslationStudio.sln" /> If you use nant there is support for that too. http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/nant.htm If you use anything else you will have to generate the command line yourself.

The normal method is to call candle on a wxs, then light on a wixobj, but in a project with multiple source files and therefore multiple wixobjs, is there a way to create the installer through the command line? What would be the process and what would be your suggestions at automating it?
