I would put the source files in unmanaged components (no GUID on the component) and then remove them through a custom action after the compile. You may need placeholder files that represent the compiled binaries so they get removed on uninstall.

Subject: [WiX-users] temporary files in an install Hi: I'm writing an install, which compiles files onthe fly. I need to remove the source files whilst leaving the compiled binary. What is the best way of doing this soothe source file is used at install time butnot left on the system.
