Open source projects using Wix source files to learn from

I have to write an installer and want to use Wix. The documentation on the website is not working and I like l开发者_JAVA技巧earning by example. Does someone know an open source project with good WiX source files, preferable for Wix version 3.0 or 3.5.

SharpDevelop is one of the bigger ones that I know that uses WiX. I also have a project called IsWiX that sits on top of WiX to author Merge Modules. IsWiX uses WiX/IsWiX itself to do it's own installer so there are some examples there. Finally there is a new WiX book out that you might want to purchase and read through.

TortoiseSVN uses WiX and there is a blog outlining some issue they had.

A few Codeplex projects that use Wix:

• Wix, of course
• SytleCop
• TortoiseHg
• VisualHg

There's a open source WIX Sample projects available here, which were very helpful in getting me started.

And don't forget to check out the Powerpoint slide(s) in the slides folder. I found it really valuable in getting me started with WiX compared to the Wix Tutorial on the Wix website or the Packtpub books.
