I found the cause of your hang. Your vs2008 DLL creates a ProgId "CoKavBaseAbout.1" that is NOT "version-independent" that contains a CurVer subkey pointing back at itself. Your vs6.0 DLL does NOT contain that extra CurVer key.
Version independent ProgIds are supposed to point to their current Versioned ProgIds via the CurVer subkey. Non-version independent ProgIds are NOT supposed to have that subkey at all. I didn't see any version-independent-formatted ProgId (I was expecting "CoKavBaseAbout") in either DLL. They aren't required, but they are customary. Please see the code/rgs/whatever was used to generate the above ProgId and ensure that it conforms to the COM standards. Specifically, remove the incorrect CurVer key. I will look at the source code to see if there is some way to detect this state, but I'm not sure yet how it should react when it finds it. -----Original Message----- From: Евгений Рогожников [mailto:eugen...@mail.ru] Sent: Friday, October 09, 2009 11:16 PM To: Blair Subject: Re[2]: [WiX-users] (heat hangs on particular dll) I attached both cases with minimal collections of dlls wich enouth for bug reproducing.
