I don't think it will be hard either.  Just waiting on approval.

I now see the SDK\VS2010 and SDK\VS2012 folders that include inc and lib 
subfolders.  I suspect this is where much of the work will need to be done to 
make VS specific libs and wired up to the version.  
Unless there is something else I'm missing, I'm thinking that a C++ / WiX 
Installer developer could make relatively short work of this.  I don't think 
there is going to be any scary C# / VSIX work.  (Knock on wood.)

Subject: [WiX-users] Using WiX 3.7 Votive with VS2013 RC

I wanted to pass on the results of a test I did today.  I started with a
Win7 VM with IE10 (prereq of VS) and VS2013.  I then performed the following 
steps:

Copy Files from a VS2010/VS2012 Dev Machine to the VM:

[ProgramFilesFolder]WiX Toolset v3.7\bin IncludeFile.ico LocationFile.ico 
ProductFile.ico ProjectFile.ico WixLibraryFile.ico sconce2010.dll votive2010.dll

[ProgramFilesFolder]Microsoft Visual Studio 
11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft\WiX

Edit the extension.vsixmanifest found in the above WiX directory and add a 

new section: 

<VisualStudio Version="12.0">
<Edition>Ultimate</Edition>
<Edition>Premium</Edition>
<Edition>Pro</Edition>
<Edition>Express_All</Edition>
</VisualStudio> Open VS2012 Native Tools Comand Prompt and execute:
devenv /setup

Results:
Help About shows Windows Installer XML 3.7 and File | New Project shows all 

the expected project types.

I created a setup project and a c# custom action project.  All seemed well. 

I then created a C++ custom action project.  Intellisense gives me squigglies 
saying it can't find things like WcaInitialize but when I build 

the project it compiles.

I hope this helps.  I'm going to keep refining these procedures as I find 
issues.
