To be honest, that's not a "feature" of InstallShield that I like or use. Magically "Easy" buttons are a great concept but I don't like switching off my brain.

When VS2005 C++ DLL uses the msvcrt IS adds the corresponding MSM to the project. How can do similar with WiX 3.5? It would includ this tasks: - detect automagically which run-time DLLs are necessary - add these run-times conviniently - keep track of updates to these run-times as it happens when VS2005SP1 or the lastest April update of VS2005 changes the versions, that are used in VS2005 when linking a DLL? The last point means, I want only to recompile the installer with WiX to get the current dependencies included. I tried to evaluate the HEAT options but did not found any appropriate.
