FW: Problems upgrading to WiX 3.9 - BUG
 
|
Anyone else want to confirm this is the case? Renaming the 3.9 files to include a DLL extension and trying to load them in dependency walker fails. Renaming the previous version gets a valid PE file which dependency walker can load.

Yeah, quick check looks like you are right. Bummer.
I'd toss out that we figure out how to fix this then release a .zip file with only the VSExtension in it (i.e. do not release a full new build).

The bug is caused by not having a .dll extension so git didn't know it was a binary.

Why would the 3.10 changes matter? You can easily branch as of 3.9 RTM, fix the mangled DLL's, and cut a release from that branch.
