Hi Robert, Thank you very much for your offer regarding the heat extension to harvest 64-bit DLLs.
I would very much like to use it. How can I get hold of it?

It does not require rebuilding Heat, just registration via heat.exe.config. Feel free to let me know if you want to try it out. I plan to contribute it to Wix 4.0 at some point. -Rob Y. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Re-Wix-3-5 -Heat-Cannot-harvest-64-Bit-COM-DLL-Registry-Data-tp7583833p7583858.html Sent from the wix-devs mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2013 23:02:46 +0000 From: Neil Sleightholm <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] 3.8 build failure To: Windows Installer XML toolset developer mailing list <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" No VS command prompt (they are too abstract for me <smile>) I just set the msbuild path to "%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\msbuild.exe" and build the wix.proj. This means I get these environment variables: VS100COMNTOOLS=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\Tools\ VS110COMNTOOLS=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\Tools\ VS80COMNTOOLS=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\ VS90COMNTOOLS=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\ VSEDEFLOGDIR=C:\ProgramData\McAfee\DesktopProtection VSSDK100Install=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SDK\ I have a bunch of SDKs installed so if the build references the registry keys for these that will probably be set.

If so, which one. My builds work when I don't use VS command prompt for VS2010, VS2012 and VS2010+VS2012. IIRC, that error happens when the VisualStudio property is not set correctly.
