In short I have used it to good success. It took a little bit to work through the options, but in the end I got a nice fragment file I could include in a dynamic build. After the fact I learned that MISInstaller prefers each file have its own component, I used paraffin to group by directory. When we stich over to a major release I will adjust my scripts to conform to default behavior. I also like that you can dig into the source code. It is worth a look.

Subject: [WiX-users] Anybody using Paraffin? Hi, I want to have my automated WiX build automatically pick up the occasional new file (and drop the odd deleted one) without regenerating any component GUIDs. I've found this tool named Paraffin that's designed to solve the problem, but it hasn't been updated in a while: http://www.wintellect.com/CS/blogs/jrobbins/archive/tags/Paraffin/default.aspx I'd like to know if any users out there have had experience using this with WiX v3.6 Beta?
