Don't harvest the 64-bit component; harvest the 32-bit and use the same 
authoring compiled for 64-bit.

[WiX-users] How do you extract COM registration info from a 64-bit DLL or TLB?

2010-04-22 Thread Younie, Bradford
This is with WiX 3.0.

I have an installer that has a COM component. I'm using heat to harvest the COM 
configuration from both the DLL and TLB files into a fragment that I then 
include in my wix build. This works great.

Now, I need to produce a 64-bit version of the same product, but I build it all 
on a 32-bit computer. When heat tries to harvest the data from the 64-bit DLL 
and TLB, it fails. I understand why it fails: it can't load the 64-bit DLL on a 
32-bit system. But is there a way around it?

Here's how I'm calling heat:

heat.exe file MyProduct.dll -srd -suid -dr lib -gg -out MyProduct.wxs
