Take a look at:

An event source in windows is really just some registry entries.  The 
EventSource extension is some compiler synatical sugar that simlifies 
authoring this.   Your Installer class isn't needed and shouldn't be used 
as it increases the fragility of your MSI.

Subject: [WiX-users] Windows service event source


I'm using the latest weekly build of Wix. The ServiceInstall feature

doesn't create a properly named event source for the service. The event

source for a service turns out to be Service1. The service installer built

into .NET does it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?


Thanks,

Chris
