Description

In file COBIA-DevInstaller?.wixproj within folder Installer\COBIA_DevInstaller, the first Property Group reads:

<PropertyGroup?>

<Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == ">Debug</Configuration>
<Platform Condition=" '$(Platform)' ==
">x64</Platform>
<ProductVersion?>3.10</ProductVersion?>
<ProjectGuid?>2f2be848-2320-4d2b-8f4f-170beefd53f9</ProjectGuid?>
<SchemaVersion?>2.0</SchemaVersion?>
<OutputName?>COBIA-Development</OutputName?>

</PropertyGroup?>

To what ProductVersion? as 3.10 is referring to?

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to invalid

This is the version of the WIX toolset itself.

Then we need to be consistent. It is 3.11 that is referred to later on in the same file:

<Target Name="EnsureWixToolsetInstalled?" Condition=" '$(WixTargetsImported?)' != 'true' ">

<Error Text="The WiX Toolset v3.11 (or newer) build tools must be installed to build this project. To download the WiX Toolset, see http://wixtoolset.org/releases/" />

The VS WIX add-in administers this file. I would not edit by hand if not needed.

comment:4 Changed 2 years ago by michelpons

Even the error text is administered automatically by Wix add-in?

comment:5 Changed 2 years ago by jasper

The entire .wixproj file is administered by the WIX Visual Studio Add-in. Which error text?

comment:6 Changed 2 years ago by michelpons

<Target Name="EnsureWixToolsetInstalled??" Condition=" '$(WixTargetsImported??)' != 'true' ">

<Error Text="The WiX Toolset v3.11 (or newer) build tools must be installed to build this project. To download the WiX Toolset, see ​http://wixtoolset.org/releases/" />

Yes - that too.

So Wix Add-in is inconsistent but it is not something we can deal with, not worth reporting especially since Wix 3.x is not maintained any more. I think the right resolution status is that we won't fix or just can't fix. Inconsistency is valid as a point.
