Attributes
Name Type Description Required
Id String The identifier of the ComponentGroup to reference. Yes
Primary YesNoType Set this attribute to 'yes' in order to make the parent feature of this component the primary feature for this component. Components may belong to multiple features. By designating a feature as the primary feature of a component, you ensure that whenever a component is selected for install-on-demand (IOD), the primary feature will be the one to install it. This attribute should only be set if a component actually nests under multiple features. If a component nests under only one feature, that feature is the primary feature for the component. You cannot set more than one feature as the primary feature of a given component.  
Any Attribute (namespace='##other' processContents='lax') Extensibility point in the WiX XML Schema. Schema extensions can register additional attributes at this point in the schema.
