Summary: [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not mandatory
Initial Comment:
When using self-registration to generate registry keys for COM classes,
@Context will not appear for classes that are marked as PublicNotCreateable in
VB6 projects. Because instances can only be created by private code, the
execution context is not required. The self-registry of these classes does not
generate this element.
The absence of Context is however precluded by the validity checking code in
Compiler.cs, and the schema in wix.xsd, but because heat uses the self registry
routines to determine the content, it can generate Class elements with no
@Context when processing VB6 libraries with PublicNotCreateable classes, a
common construct in more advanced code (this is the closest you'll get to
having a dedicated "Interface" concept in VB6, for example).
Suggest:
* Change [EMAIL PROTECTED] to optional in schema
* Remove the following code from Compiler.cs
if (0 == context.Count)
{
this.core.OnMessage(WixErrors.ExpectedAttribute(sourceLineNumbers, node.Name,
"Context", classId));
}
Tested this on a local build and it seems to work fine for the discussed case.
