[WiX-users] How to ignore selected ICE errors or warnings during compilation

[John G. (MBS) <Gil...@mi...>]

I just started using WIX build 3.0.2420.0,  (I was using 3.0.1502.0).  When Light.exe runs it performs the ICE validations.
Some of those, I want to ignore.  However, I have not been able to figure out how to do so.

Here are a couple of lines of output I am seeing:
1>c:\main\source\setup\msiwix\components64\components64.wxs(424) : error LGHT0204 : ICE80: This 32BitComponent Client.Anameterdll uses 64BitDirectory DIR_Client_Common
1>c:\main\source\setup\msiwix\components64\components64.wxs(438) : error LGHT0204 : ICE80: This 32BitComponent RemoveDIR_SetupTmpFiles uses 64BitDirectory DIR_Setup
1>c:\main\source\setup\msiwix\components64\components64.wxs(442) : error LGHT0204 : ICE80: This 32BitComponent Setup.SynchronizationServiceDll uses 64BitDirectory DIR_Setup
1>c:\main\source\setup\msiwix\components64\components64.wxs(449) : error LGHT0204 : ICE80: This 32BitComponent Setup.NetBusinessConnector uses 64BitDirectory DIR_Setup
1>c:\main\source\setup\msiwix\components64\components64.wxs(458) : error LGHT0204 : ICE80: This 32BitComponent Setup.SynchronizationProxyOfficeDll uses 64BitDirectory DIR_Setup

In this instance, the errors relate to a common merge module included in both a 32bit and 64bit MSI.  Everything had been working just fine on 64 bit machines, (with MSIs built with build 1502), so it appears that I can ignore this error.  However it is causing the compile to fail.

I tried the following SW command line parms for Light.exe, but they either caused their own errors or did nothing.  Some of the errors say the parm should look like "-sw6".
-sw
-sw0204
-swLGHT0204
-sw80
-swICE80
All of the above with the values in angle brackets.

Anybody know how to get Light.exe to skip selected ICE validations?
