>This does suck. I hadn't noticed it until you mentioned it.
I just noticed it in the last hour. I thought everything was OK so far with VS 2012. Actually, I have a lot of positive feedback about it. But, this one, outch!
>Wix - another punt by Microsoft to open source so they don't have to support it in any way.
I never used one single open source product so far. I always tried to stay away from that. Craig mentioned Inno Setup. This brings us back to R & D about something that was resolved years ago.
>Inno? A PITA compared to the setup projects you could build previously.
Yes, this goes along the comment I just made in Craig's reply.
>Installshield? Very expensive but it does allow creation of major installation packages.
Correct
>Gosh - I hope they give us the metro interface for Visual Studio so I can switch to eclipse and java and get over it.
Ah, well, that would be an option I guess.
