Hello
          I am new to wix technology. I am creating an installer. I used
heat.ext to harvest my directories and to generate wxs file with -ag option
to get all my components generated with guid="*" . I want to automate the
process. We do daily builds, and we will release software to customers for
every 6months. For example, if some new files got added to my directory i
dont want to manually open the wxs file and add the code. i want to use the
heat.exe to generate the wxs file every time we do a build. so that newly
added files will get into the wxs file . And then build my wix project to
all newly added files to my installer.

Will it be a problem in future if we do patches etc? every time we do a
build the wix project we generate the installer. so that all the component
guids get regenerated. Will this be a problem?

I know if we use -gg option every time we harvest components will get new
guids. But i read that Component GUIDs must be same across all versions.

Please clarify me. I am stuck.
