After I reviewed my original message (and realized that WiX has extensions for NAnt and MSBuild :-), I realized that my original message may have been misinterpreted.
As an example, if I make changes to .\src\ca\serverca\scasched\scaweb.cpp and .\src\ca\serverca\scasched\scaweb.h and then rebuild using .\make.bat, the pre-compiled header does not get rebuilt, which causes an error. If I then touch precomp.h, the build succeeds, but iis.wixlib does not get rebuilt, so I do not see the changes to the CA DLL reflected in any subsequently linked MSIs. So, each time I have to make sure to touch precomp.h and delete the wixlib before running an incremental build. Thanks, Thomas S.
