Re: [WiX-users] Fragments, Cabinets, and Light, Oh My!
Doh! Yeah, youre right. I totally forgot about that. I was working on ComponentGroup and got sidetracked. One thing I dont understand is why ComponentGroup isnt a parent node for Component. Itd be nice to have ComponentGroup exist inside of Directory or DirectoryRef so you wouldnt have to setup a ComponentGroup with each ComponentRef afterwards. Oh well. Thanks for your help, Simon.

Or even better, Heat should have a switch to throw each directorys contents into its own ComponentGroup. That would be very cool.

Joel: You are missing the Feature for the Component that will install the file. In your case, you would create two folders, but your file would never get installed.
