It's not a usage question; it's a question about the build process of the WiX distribution from a development standpoint. If I forget to touch the pre-compiled header .h files or delete the extension wixlibs from the build directory, an incremental build of WiX doesn't re-build them. I don't need the dependencies to be created automagically at compile time; I'm perfectly willing to add them to the NAnt / MSBuild files - I just don't know exactly how to do that, and I thought someone on the list may have done something similar.
