That would be a BootstrapperApplication feature and the wixstdba doesn't
implement anything like that today. It'd be a cool feature, although it'd
also have to be tailored to each custom BA probably since you can do just

You shouldn't need to do this as WiX takes care of it for you, the files are
stored in the cab in alphabetical order no matter what order they are in you

Ok, so it sounds like you have a managed CA and that you are catching the

you referencing the CA from your MSI? On your CustomAction element, do you
have Return="ignore" by chance?
