Thanks Jacob! Is there a guide to hacking on wix36?
I haven't used nant in years... what should I be "nant'ng" (for toolsrc and wix itself)?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Trying to build Wix to debug a nasty problem... having problems 3.6 is not meant to be built by Visual Studio and MSBuild. 3.6 is a mess of Nant build scripts and is quite fragile. 3.7 is being redone to build using just MSBuild or Visual Studio (though I haven't checked to see any of the progress). -----Original Message----- From: Robert MacFadyen [mailto:rmacfad...@rmtrack.com] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2012 2:32 PM To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.' Subject: [WiX-users] Trying to build Wix to debug a nasty problem... having problems Hey all, I'm trying to build Wix in VS2010 and I'm having a problem. I've downloaded the source from CodeProject using hg clone/hg update (to wix36 tag). The .sln appears to convert to vs2010 ok. Not sure why it was doing a conversion though... should I be using vs2008? When I try and build a specific extension, WixUtilExtension, I'm getting the following error: Error reading resource file 'c:\its\WixDevelopment\build\debug\x86\\util.wixlib' -- 'The system cannot find the file specified. ' WixUtilExtension When I try and build the entire solution I get several similar messages. So my question is where/when do the XXX.wixlib files get created?
