None yet. I need to bribe the right people to get a code review so I can 
check it in.

The linker (light) always links in the entire fragment of anything you
reference. So if you have a fragment with 100 components and you
ComponentRef one of them, the entire fragment of 100 components is
linked in. If you want more control, use a small fragment. I'm not sure
it makes sense as the default for heat; in fact, I added some code
recently that, when the -sfrag switch is passed, creates a
ComponentGroup for every component, so you don't have to ComponentRef
every single component.

Also Is there a reason that each file is in its own fragment?  That

That's the default; you can override it with -sfrag. The advantage of
many fragments is that each is separately linkable.

No they are not. We don't use regsvr32 to register any dlls, and there are
no registry entries in the wix for the last version of our software, and it
all worked.  Trust me we don't need to make any registry entries for the

Typically the registry entries that get automatically generated by
heat.exe will come from your COM dlls and such, since this is the
preferred way to register a COM dll rather than calling regsvr32 on each
dll.  So, whatever registry entries are being generated, are probably
needed for your installation.

Re: [WiX-users] Heat. Can it not generate registry entries?

2007-03-09 Thread Scott Sam
Thanks, I saw that already.  It only gives very basic info, I was hoping
for some more in depth documentation.  It would really be helpful if I
could get the wxs files create by heat without the registry  entries.

I'm not sure about having heat *not* generate registry entries, but here
is an article that was written about heat that might be useful:

The problem I'm having is that heat automatically generates registry
entries for any dll in the directory, but I don't want it to.  Anyone 
know how to turn that off?
