Variable for WiX bin directory path?

Tags:

path

wix

bin

Is there an environment variable pointing to the WiX bin directory path? I want to use torch in the post-build event of my project, but I cannot find this variable. I cannot hard-code the path because the wixproj is shared by group.

Variables like $(WixTargetsPath) and $(WixTasksPath) are for MSBuild. These are not what I want.

Thanks!
