Did you know that your original post on December 6th didn't make it to
the mailing list? It's only in the reply to your own e-mail on the 9th
that made it so others could see your initial inquiry from the 6th. Just
thought you might find that interesting because you'd mentioned silence
on the issue initially, but there were no prior posts from you on the
6th that appeared here.
In the initial email from the 6th, which shows in your reply to that,
you say at the very end.
"It appears that this is the location of the error, it is in a generated
file.

What generates the file that contains this code? That's not compiler or
linker code. That's just straight up WiX code as "normally" written by a
human. It would seem so straight forward to fix as to be trivial, but
apparently not.

To me, it looks like it is because the filename is long.
$(var.Core.Data.DataManagement.Plugins.Client.TargetDir)XPT.Core.Data.Da
taManagement.Plugins.Client.pdb
The physical directory is this:
C:\XPertSeries\Source\XPJ-R7S3\bin\debug\plugins\platformclient
Core.Data.DataManagement.Plugins.Client is the project name (and the
assembly name + XPT).
So you see my dilemma, short of renaming everything I am left with the
warnings. To me, since the ID is generated, it seems like a bug...

I think you'd mentioned before that it was during the compile, as
opposed to the link, which I suspect, too. You can certainly break those
down into two discreet steps to figure out which one it is. Assuming it
is the compile then it would be in one of the .wixobj files, since that
is what the compiler creates. You could do just the compile and then use
a utility like FINDSTR to search through those .wixobj files and figure
out which one it is. Then correlate that back to which source file it
is. I suspect one of your $(var.aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.eee) entries is being
expanded out during the compile time to be the entry that is too long.
If that were to hold true then it would be necessary for you to examine
those var entries to see which one it is and how to shorten it to
eliminate the error.

The file must be generated by WiX during build time.

Maybe it's just my lack of understanding, but you don't seem to be
giving us many clues here. You say the problem Id is in "a generated
file" - what file, generated by what?
