Multiple Build Output Windows Installer XML

Question

I can't figure out, if there is a way to build a wixout and a msi in the same build process. I gave my visual Studio linker (light.exe) additional parameters: -xo -out bin\Release\SdwClientSetup.wixout -bf

By using

-xo

no msi File will be created. Is there a way to create both (msi and wixout) in one build process?

Thanks for your answers.

Answer 1

The toolset diagram shows that light takes a .wixout as an input.

If you first produce the .wixout, you can add a step to call light to link it into an .msi.
