[wix-users] How to add wix extension when harvesting with HeatDirectory

Hi Community,

I can see that when running heat.exe at command line I can pass -ext
<wixextension>, and include e.g. WixFirewallExtension (
https://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/overview/heat.html).
However, I do my harvesting using the HeatDirectory task element in my
wixproj file (
https://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/msbuild/task_reference/heatdirectory.html).
With the latter, unfortunately, I cannot see a way to add an extension.

How can I achieve this with the HeatDirectory element? Thanks in advance.

Best,
Tigran
