When I use heat, it generates dir/comp/file ID's such as cmpXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX dirXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX filXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
If I omit the File/@Id attribute I get a different transformation pattern autogenerated. Is there a way to make it make the autogenerated flavor be like the way heat does it? Also when I try to use autogenerated componentID/Guids in merge module projects I get an error message saying the file isn't rooted in ProgramFilesFolder. Eventually it will be though since we wire all of our modules up to targetdir\installdir. I found a hackish way around this error ( declare a Directory of ProgramFilesFolder with a DefaultDir of . and put it in the heiraachy ) but I was wondering if there is a better way here. Basically I'm trying to come up with a way of writing merge modules that have as much autogenerated id's and guids as possible to minimize the mistake of component rule violations and such.
