Question

I\'ve got a directory containing multiple files that I want to include in my msi package build by a Wix project.

/database
/database/migration11.txt         


        

Answer 1

You can use task in your wixproj file:

 
... Your wxs files ...

  CG_YOUR_GROUP
  DIR_REFERENCE
  false
  false
  true
  true
  true
  true
  var.Property_Preprocessor

This task calls Heat during the build. Hope this helps you.
