WiX 3.8 - Debug Custom Burn Bootstrapper
burn, wix, wix3.8
Solution
Rob Mensching describes the proper way in this answer.
Alternatively, you could use the following:
The bootstrapper creates logs in your user's temp directory, ex: `C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp`
Run your boostrapper and attach the debugger to your setup.exe.
Call `Debugger.Launch()` (from the System.Diagnostics namespace) in your code to launch your debugger during runtime.
Problem
Can Anyone point out the steps involved in debugging a WiX Custom Burn Bootstrapper ? I have my MSI working clean. But when I use it with Burn bootstrapper, the custom actions defer and create problems. I want to just debug my bootstrapper with VS2012.
