MsBuild Problem for Upgraded Project
Hi,
Updated to Spring. Projects Build file from Installshield and Visual Studio.
However, when using MsBuild I get a popup message from MsBuild
The program can't start because BECommonLib.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
Msbuild then returns a -5056 error.
My msbuild proj files calls
The isproj file correctly details the 2012Spring InstallShield.targets file.
The Installshield.targets file correctly details the InstallShieldPath variable
C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield\2012Spring\System
The System directory contains the BECommonLib.dll file.
Any clues as to why I get this problem?
Thanks,
Adam

Workaround:
I set the PATH variable to include the Installshield Spring System directory and MSBuild works fine again.
Therefore it seems that there is a problem around the InstallshieldPath property.
I used a in the Installshield.targets file.
In the Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010) it outputs correctly during the build.
