I have Visual Studio Express 2012, and I'm looking to create an installation project for it, using WiX. I can't use the plugin because it's Express, so I'm using the candle and light approach.
I know how to make the wxs file I need, but my problem is that I'm not sure what files to include in the setup app (ex. the actual application file) and how to get Visual Studio to give me these files.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. -tradeJmark
You need to build your project in the Release configuration, which will create .exe
and perhaps .dll
files in bin\Release
.
