# WiX.Toolset.2015

This is a utility project that brings the Wix Tools down and lets us publish it as though it were an app. Do NOT add any C# code to it! It is not designed to actually be compiled as an assembly, it's just used for its dependencies.
First pass at building Windows MSI for the dotnet CLI repo. - Use the heat tool to harvest the stage2 dir and create install-files.wxs - dotnet.wxs contains the XML code which is constant across builds for an MSI. - Use Candle and Light to generate the MSI from install-files.wxs and dotnet.wxs. Default Install Location - %ProgramFiles%/dotnet. Adds <InstallRoot>\bin %PATH% Creates %DOTNET_HOME% pointing to <InstallRoot> 2015-11-17 08:39:46 +00:00			`# WiX.Toolset.2015`
