OK, so that brings up the first problem I encountered that led me to this juncture. The project I need to reference won't show up in the Project References list even though I have it defined as a dependency in the installer project. I think it's because it's an SSIS project and this project type must not be allowed as a wix project reference. Does anyone have any info that can confirm this assumption? Or, how do I get around this problem?
Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Nir Bar [mailto:nir....@panel-sw.com] Sent: Thursday, March 19, 2015 2:54 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] using custom variables on heat command line You can use these variables: http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/votive/votive_project_references.html Note that they're available only within a Visual Studio context. As far as I remmember you can use $(var.ProjectDir) for your own project as well as the other project-reference variables. ----- Nir Bar Freelance Developer Mail: nir....@panel-sw.com Web: www.panel-sw.com - C++ On Windows, Linux and Embedded Platforms - WiX & InstallShield -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/using-custom-variables-on-heat-command-line-tp7599633p7599637.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
