I 'm using heat to harvest binary output of a VB.NET project. The 
project output is an executable that runs as a service and a few DLL's. 
The output that heat generates looks rather sparse for what I would 
expect. I was expecting to see DLL component/files and maybe even 
something to install the service.

I used the following command line:

    heat project
    "C:\ace-co-devel\Aceco.NET\TCPDbSvr\TCPDbSvc\TCPDbSvc.vbproj"
    -pog:Binaries -var var.TCPDbSvc -dr TCPDbSvc -ag -template:fragment
    -out TCPDbSvc.wxs


And the TCPDbSvc.wxs output was this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
        <Fragment>
            <DirectoryRef Id="TCPDbSvc.Binaries">
                <Component Id="cmpBA7CE1FE46350CBF9825BB2E0F904481"
    Guid="*">
                    <File Id="filDC28E99A47F7AA3C43324EB0770DBA14"
    Source="$(var.TCPDbSvc.TargetDir)\TCPDbSvc.exe" />
                </Component>
            </DirectoryRef>
        </Fragment>
        <Fragment>
            <ComponentGroup Id="TCPDbSvc.Binaries">
                <ComponentRef Id="cmpBA7CE1FE46350CBF9825BB2E0F904481" />
            </ComponentGroup>
        </Fragment>
    </Wix>

Any insight on what my next step would be to make sure all of the 
components for this application are installed, as well as proper 
installation as a service would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill
