Heat only records what the DLL's DllRegisterServer function writes to the
registry. Fix the DLL, or stop relying on reverse-engineering the registry
settings. If you're coding in C++ you know what the registry settings should
be. Heat is intended for toolchains where you don't have that control (e.g.
VB6).
COM registry entries for .NET components are more cleanly retrieved by
running regasm.exe with the /regfile switch.

Subject: [WiX-users] Heat.exe generates InprocServer32 defult value with
double quotes (") appended
Hi WiX-Users
Recently we have migrated from wixv2 to wixv3 toolset. In our MSI, we have
two COM dlls for registering these two DLLs, we were using wixv2's smoke.exe
auto-generated registry entries, in wixv3, we are using wixv3's Heat.exe
generated registry entries.
Here we are facing a problem because of double quotes added by Heat.exe.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{3018609E-CDAC-47E8-A255-809D46BAA319}\InprocServer
32]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\OUR Product Name\\v35\\ourproduct.dll\""
If this MSI is opened with ORCA tool, it shows registry value as
"[#ourproduct.dll]"
Because of the above problem we are getting COMCHK errors.
Please help us in solving this problem?
Thanks
Manikyam
