For the record and the benefit of future generations, I overcame my problem by
switching from using <Target Name="BeforeBuild"><HeatProject... etc, to using
HarvestProjects Target as follows:
<PropertyGroup>
<EnableProjectHarvesting>True</EnableProjectHarvesting>
<HarvestProjectsAutogenerateGuids>False</HarvestProjectsAutogenerateGuids>
<HarvestProjectsGenerateGuidsNow>True</HarvestProjectsGenerateGuidsNow>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<HeatProject Include="..\samples\csharp\DSVDemo\DSVDemo.csproj">
<ProjectOutputGroups>Sources;Content</ProjectOutputGroups>
<Transforms>DSV-Testing.xslt</Transforms>
</HeatProject>
</ItemGroup>

I'm trying to include a "sample" C# project in my installer using HeatProject
as follows:
<Target Name="BeforeBuild">
<HeatProject
OutputFile="$(IntermediateOutputPath)_DSVDemo.wxs"
ToolPath="$(WixToolPath)"
Project="..\samples\csharp\DSVDemo\DSVDemo.csproj"
ProjectOutputGroups="Sources;Content"
Transforms="DSV-Testing.xslt"
AutogenerateGuids="false"
GenerateGuidsNow="true"
SuppressFragments="true"
/>
</Target>
The output file, _DVSDemo.wxs, is being created but apparently not compiled and
included in the installer, leading to "Unresolved reference" errors for the
component groups in _DVSDemo.wxs.
What am I missing?
Thanks
