Hi, Thanks. Ya it takes all the files. However it is creating separate <component> for each file so do we need to add all these ComponentRef in <Feature> tag in main project? Or it creates some component group?

I think heat is only for registering the .dll files. Please correct me if I am wrong.

However I am using Mallow.exe 3.0 to copy the files into TargetDir. Now the same .dll file entry is there in both files (one for copy and other for register) now how can I club this in one project. Do I need to create separate Feature for these two separate component?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Some general questions about Wix 1. Which version of WiX, mallow is v2, heat is v3. 1a. Yes, this should generate all the registration info for you. 1b. Definitely not. 1c. There are issues with this so I would avoid it but better that 1b! 2. Yes as many as you like. Hope this helps.
