[WiX-users] Installing dll/lib/pdb - one component or three?

I'm a installer newbie with a question on the one-file-per-component recommendation. Part of what I need to install is a dll along with its matching lib and pdb files (this install is for a product used by other programmers who will need all three files). Since the dll/lib/pdb are a matched set, i

[WiX-users] MSMQ/MessageQueue: create public queue
