Heat does not use file extensions to determine file types, so each of those several hundred files is being processed as if they were binaries.

Subject: [WiX-users] Using Heat.exe Hi, I'm using 'heat.exe' to 'harvest' a directory with several hundred small files and some twenty DLLs. - how long is that supposed to take? Currently it's running for 5hrs and still not done. - When it starts, it uses up to 45MB for a while. Now it's down to 450KB. Is that normal? Here is the command line: >heat.exe dir <directory -v -gg -nologo -sw5150 -out <ourproduct>.wxs I thought the -v would generate more information on what it is doing, but I get nothing after the DLLs are processed. Is there a way to see, what it is doing? -- Best regards, Andreas mailto:[email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
