WiX Config - rsmart8452/Wix4BurnTutorial GitHub Wiki

WixToolset.Mba.Host.config (.NET Framework) || (.NET Core)

A config file is needed to help the bundle find and start up the BA. This file must be named WixToolset.Mba.Host.config. In it, a BootstrapperSectionGroup is declared (here named wix.bootstrapper). This section notes which assembly contains the BA. In our case, it's Bootstrapper.dll.

<wix.bootstrapper>
    <host assemblyName="Bootstrapper"/>
</wix.bootstrapper>

startup Element

.NET Framework

The startup element is required for .NET Framework and tells the bundle which framework version the BA is targeting.

<startup>
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2"/>
</startup>

.NET Core

.NET Core does not use the startup element and it will be ignored if it is included.
