[WiX-users] Burn: WixstdBA

2011-10-17 Thread Hoover, Jacob
While I know I could customize the BA to suite my needs, might I suggest a slight change to the thmutil.cpp. If a user supplies an IconSourceFile from within the Bundle, the primary exe file will have a Win32 icon resource embedded into it. If the thm.xml (or XML overridden by has windows with n
