You want to change the component group id as well (-cg).
I would use command lines like the following:
heat.exe dir manualEN -out manualEN.wxs -cg manualEN -dr manualEN -ag -srd
-sfrag -var var.ProjectDir
heat.exe dir manualFR -out manualFR.wxs -cg manualFR -dr manualFR -ag -srd
-sfrag -var var.ProjectDir
Notes:
* Explicitly specify different component group id.
* Explicitly specify different directory ref id.
* Use -ag flag to have GUIDs created at compile time. (I prefer this to -gg -g1)
Explicitly specifying different component group id will cause heat / candle to
generate different guids. If you use the same component group id then how are
you supposed to choose one component group from the other?
Explicitly specifying the directory ref id will not root the harvested
directory under TARGETDIR. You can specify where the directories exist
explicitly using <Directory/> elements:
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="MyProduct">
<Directory Id="DocFolder" Name="doc">
<Directory Id="manualEN" Name="en"/>
<Directory Id="manualFR" Name="fr"/>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
I try to let the compiler (candle) generate GUIDs wherever possible.
