Can't suppress WiX warning LGHT1076

Question

I'm using WiX tool to harvest files and create an installer

The heat linker produces some warning LGHT1076, I tried adding -sw1076 to the command line to suppress the warning id 1076 but the warnings still show up on the console

EDIT

here the actual warning as displayed on the console:

components.wx s(436): warning LGHT1076: ICE60: The file fil7B3FA00E2521DBF8AC02D1673A643A1A is not a Font, and its version is not a companion file reference. It should have a language specified in the Langu age column

What file is this? also check http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2298575/how-can-i-deal-with-the-ice60-warning-in-wix — Arkady Sitnitsky, Mar 16 '17 at 11:14
@ArkadySitnitsky I just want to suppress the warning. I thought I should set an option on the command line like on a normal linker — Gianluca Ghettini, Mar 16 '17 at 11:17
In project properties, go to Tool Settings and click Suppress ICE validation and add ICE60. — Arkady Sitnitsky, Mar 16 '17 at 13:14
what about suppressing it from the command line? can it be done? — Gianluca Ghettini, Mar 16 '17 at 13:22
From the heat command you cannot do that, but if you run the light command you can use the -sice:ICE60 flag. — Arkady Sitnitsky, Mar 16 '17 at 13:26
Does this answered your question? I want to post it as answer so people don't look the answer in the comments. — Arkady Sitnitsky, Mar 21 '17 at 08:26

Wix project editor does not save suppress warnings values into the file. You need to add them manually. Open wixproj file in Notepad and add the following property group:

<PropertyGroup>
    <SuppressIces>ICE03</SuppressIces>
    <SuppressSpecificWarnings>1076</SuppressSpecificWarnings>
</PropertyGroup>

Add it where? Inside what other XML tag? – ixe013 Jun 04 '21 at 13:43
@ixe013: It must be placed inside the `Project` XML tag. Same level as other `PropertyGroup` or `ItemGroup` tags. – huha Jul 05 '22 at 08:03
I got a similar warning: **light.exe(0,0): warning LGHT1076: ICE03: String overflow...**. Either of the elements `1076` and `ICE03` is enough to suppress it. The other tag is not needed in my case. – huha Jul 05 '22 at 08:08
