Subject: [WiX-users] Same file name different locations

Hello list,

following XML throws this error while linking:
error LGHT0091: Duplicate symbol 'File:FileA' found.

    <Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
        <Component Id="Comp1">
          <File Name="FileA" />
        </Component>
        <Directory Id="SomeFolder" Name="SomeFolder">
        <Component Id="Comp2">
          <File Name="FileA" />
        </Component>
        </Directory>
    </Directory>

I can solve the problem if I set for every File element an unique ID,
but in our program at work there are many cases like this. 
Is there a better approach than setting the ID manual? I'm using WIX
3.0.
