原文:使用WIX打包客户端程序
用WPF为客户做了个小工具,打包的时候发现VS2012居然没有安装项目了,搜了下才知道现在推荐使用WIX来打包了http://wix.sourceforge.net/,我用的最新3.7的。
研究了下,发现有两个要点要记录下来,一是对简体中文的支持,二是自动安装.net Framework的支持;希望大家用到该工具的时候不要再走我的弯路。
1.对简体中文的支持,在这里http://www.cnblogs.com/wfwup/archive/2009/07/16/1524708.html下载的中文资源包,加入到项目里重新编译就可以了,原作者提供的是3.0的,发现在3.7下一样能用,感谢技术手札提供。
把我的Product.wxs文件和大家分享下:

2.自动安装.net Framework,参考了这篇文章:http://blog.csdn.net/duanzilin/article/details/5982296
用文本编辑器打开项目文件*.wixproj,在Project节点加入如下xml(请大家选择自己需要的.net版本)
<ItemGroup>
<BootstrapperPackage
Include=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0,Profile=Client">
<Visible>False</Visible>
<ProductName>.NET Framework 4.0 Client</ProductName>
<Install>True</Install>
</BootstrapperPackage>
</ItemGroup>
和
<Target Name="AfterBuild">
<GenerateBootstrapper ApplicationFile="zh-cn\$(TargetFileName)"
ApplicationName="产品名称"
BootstrapperItems="@(BootstrapperPackage)"
ComponentsLocation="Relative"
CopyComponents="True"
OutputPath="$(OutputPath)"
Path="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bootstrapper\"/>
</Target>
保存,重新编译即可。那个Bootstrapper目录请大家按照自己电脑上的目录结构修改(一般好像都一样的)
Wix中添加自定义操作部分,因项目没用上也没研究。
