A complete WiX 3.6 bundle example bootstrapping a .NET 4 Client Profile
I tried to construct a working example of a WiX 3.6 installation script. We currently use WiX 3.5 and now we would like to begin installing the .NET 4 Client Profile framework as a pre-requisite for our MSI file that our product.wxs script creates. WiX 3.6 seems like the best way forward.
Is there a functional example of how to do this with WiX 3.6?
Here is our 3.5 script we use today:
