Light is a "smart" linker; it links in only the sections that are

Patch and PatchCreation, just to be pedantic). You can break up your
authoring however you want, because a Wix element can have multiple Fragment
children. So just break up your control authoring into multiple Fragments
and only the authoring in each fragment will get linked in.
thanks... worked perfectly. i wasn't aware that referencing a component in
a fragment pulled in the whole fragment. took 2 seconds to fix and we are
golden.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if WiX didn't explicitly support Win16 --
I mean, it is 2007, you know.<g> If you look in src\wix\Compiler.cs for
ParseTypeLibElement, you'll see that it mentions Win16 in a comment only to
ignore it in favor of win32/win64 based on the component attribute.
I realize it is 2007, the problem is that some third party developers are
stuck in 1995.
I don't think it exists, so feel free to enter a feature request. I'm not
sure how to make it fit together with the Win64 attribute, so it's not
necessarily straightforward.
maybe if i get another app to repackage that still is frozen in time, but
for now i'll let it pass.
4. And finally, when compiling, the Class element InprocServer(32) values
are entered into the registry table with quotation marks (i.e.
"C:\windows\system32\mscomctl.ocx") and when the control is manually
registered to verify the msi entries, the quotation marks are removed from
the entries. Is this an incorrect design?
Which version of WiX are you using? I believe that was changed sometime
recently to not quote.
I am using v3.00.2813. i believe that is the last release.
thanks again.
