I am not used to wixlibs. I tried creating one which will have a custom action file and few files which needs to be installed. What I am seeing is that the wixlib which is getting generated is of very little size (around 8 KB), inspite of the fact that I have files (to install) worth few MBs. Clearly, the wixlib is not getting these files within it. I must be doing something wrong... but, not sure what?
