Sorry for the post, Marc -----Original Message----- From: Marc Beaudry [mailto:mbeau...@matrox.com] Sent: April-12-2013 2:52 PM To: 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.' Subject: [WiX-users] Candle - Passing Parameters at compile time Hello, I have a VS 2012 WIX project that works as expected in VS2012, it uses $(var.Platform) to determine where the source binaries are located. How can I compile this project outside of VS? I get this error: error CNDL0150 : Undefined preprocessor variable '$(var.Platform)' Knowing that Platform is either x64 or Win32 depending on what I need, can I pass this value along to Candle on the command line. I looked for command line options for candle and can't seem to find a way to pass this on the command line. I found a -arch x64. Any advice?
