I would install the service using the <Service> elements and then do the
COM bit by writing the relevant registry entries using <RegistryValue>.
The hard bit is generating the registry values as I don't think heat can
harvest COM servers, if the code is written in C++ you should be able to
get the values from the source registration code.

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing a service wich is also a COM server

I need to produce an msi-style installer for a legacy project and I need
to
do it fairly quickly. WiX has been recommended to me and so far, so good
but
one thing eludes me at the moment. One of the targets is both a Win32
Service *and* a COM server. Does anyone have any details on how to
handle
this kind of scenario?

 

TIA,

MikeB
