I am getting the same error. In my case I have several projects, of different architectures, in the same solution. I only see the problem when I try to build the projects using a batch script and msbuild to build each project. The C++ CA project can be built as either Win32 or x64. The wixlib project is x86.
If I build each project in the VS IDE, selecting the correct platform, all is well (so that is what I am doing for now, until I get more time to research the problem discovered yesterday with the same error message.) However if I run the batch script, the two CA builds succeed, and then the wixlib project, with /t:build /p:platform=x86 selected fails. However the error message indicates that the wixlib project launched the CA project as a 'rebuild', but failed because Win32 was not specified. So in my case the failure relates to building a project which has a dependency on a project of a different type. I am not sure of the solution yet, and I don't want to confuse this thread with my issue, but I point this out as a possible reason for the error message. I suspect I need to edit the CA project file changing the default msbuild properties to map x86 to Win32 in some way. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Requesting-assistance-with-two-build-errors-tp7592664p7592666.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Android apps run on BlackBerry 10 Introducing the new BlackBerry 10.2.1 Runtime for Android apps.
