Ok, I must be overlooking something simple here.  I have Wix 3.8 building from 
the command line. I've made some tweaks to WixStdBA, and I am attempting to 
validate the changes. (Using the VS 2010 Command prompt on Win 7 x64.  To get 
it to build after loading I need to unset Platform.)

When I change WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.cpp, and then from the wix 
source root I invoke:

"msbuild wix.proj /t:Build /p:Configuration=Release"


I see that the binary (wixstdba.dll) is updated however the bal.wixlib which I 
believe comes from ".\src\ext\BalExtension\wixlib\BalExtension.wixproj" is not. 
 Even if I change one of the files in the project (ex: wixstdba_platform.wxi) 
and rebuild, I am still not seeing the bal.wixlib update.  I also tried 
changing WixBalExtension\BalCompiler.cs, but again the bal.wixlib is not 
updated.



This is causing me to not get my updated wixstdba.dll.  Interestingly enough, 
if I add:

<Payload SourceFile="...\wix\build\ship\x86\WixStdBA.dll" />

then my BA is included.

I can provide the interesting bits of the MSBuild log, if anyone is interested.

Thanks,
Jacob
