Classification: Public Found a few answers... The WiX Toolset integrates with Visual Studio as an extension. The Express versions of Visual Studio do not allow extension nor addins. So, WiX will not integrate with Express versions.
WiX does work with the free, open source SharpDevelop IDE (http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/), though. It is similar to VS Express but welcomes addins and external tools. http://blog.iswix.com/2011/03/installation-collaboration-workflows.html -----Original Message----- From: Steven Ogilvie Sent: October-10-14 5:38 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [WiX-users] Several questions [P] Classification: Public I haven't used this, but try Wix Designer for Visual Studio Express: http://www.add-in-express.com/wix-designer/index.php or https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/5d18f6ae-fc3a-4e4b-a7f9-9bd763d4d75c/using-wix-with-vs-2013-express?forum=vssetup Steve -----Original Message----- From: Rob L [mailto:pir...@yahoo.com] Sent: October-10-14 5:24 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Several questions Hi Im just starting to learn about wix. I want to create an installer that copies a couple files and then it runs some external c# code as well. I have visual studio express 2010 and it does not support add ins. So, i dont have access to using wix on visual studio and have to use it in msbuild. How do I tell wix to run my own c# code file during the install process? I don't know if I am asking this in the proper fashion. Please understand.
