We have a VS 2010 solution that includes a few class library projects, a SQL Server 2008 database project and a Wix setup project. We are trying to get to a point where the following happens in the order specified:
- Build the class library projects and the database project
- Deploy the database project to generate the deploy .sql script
- Build the Wix setup project.
The reason for the desired order is that the setup project requires the deployment .sql scripts as it will use these to generate/update the database on the machine that the msi is run.
It seems that there is no way within a Visual Studio solution file to create this type of build/deploy/build order. Is this correct?
Thanks
