As mentioned earlier, we are writing the secondary development of AutoCAD, so many dll files and image resources are inevitably referenced, and these files are often hundreds of thousands
<ComponentGroup Id="ProductComponents" Directory="TESTFILEPRODUCTDIR">
<Component Id="ProductComponent">
<File Id="tempAssembly" Source="C:\MyDoc\C# practice\test\temp\bin\Debug\temp.exe" KeyPath="yes" Assembly=".net"/>

</ComponentGroup>Therefore, the above writing method is only for when the number of files is small. Here we will use the batch import tool that comes with wix (heat.exe just remembered). The usage is as follows:
dir indicates the directory, -out indicates that the output is generated instantly HeatFile.Wxs. But at first glance, it is not what we want, the GuiD is not generated, and the Id of the Component is not intuitive.
Look at the WXS file again, dr in the command means to create a directory, cg is to create a ComponentGroup -var is to create a variable, -gg means to automatically generate a GUID -gl means that the GUID does not have parentheses, and other commands can be passed through heat. exe -? to view
