[Coapp-developers] CO_INSTALL_PROPERTIES.type values
Eric, I've created an enum for the possible values for CO_INSTALL_PROPERTIES.type field (CoApp.Toolkit.Engine.CompositionAction); when you get a chance, can you make sure that the values for that field match that: public enum CompositionAction { SymlinkFile, SymlinkFolder, Shortcut, } That'll make sure the Composition Rules parse correctly :D [Description: Description: Description: fearthecowboy]http://fearthecowboy.com/ Garrett Serack | Microsoft Open Source Software Developer | Microsoft Corporation Office:(425)706-7939 email/messenger: garre...@microsoft.commailto:garre...@microsoft.com blog: http://fearthecowboy.comhttp://fearthecowboy.com/ twitter: @fearthecowboyhttp://twitter.com/fearthecowboy I don't make the software you use; I make the software you use better on Windows. inline: image001.gif___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~coapp-developers Post to : coapp-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~coapp-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Coapp-developers] Ninite
Ninite just puts together a collection of known-working-installers. They pretty much expose the product discovery scenario, and streamline the installation but that's pretty much it.

Re: [Coapp-developers] Simulating Symlinks on Windows XP
I think it's a testament to Wine if CoApp works on it; less so, vice-versa. I think when we get to CoApp V2 it'll be a bit easier.

Rowe Jr. Cc: coapp-developers@lists.launchpad.net Subject: Re: [Coapp-developers] Simulating Symlinks on Windows XP I know it sounds crazy at first. Consider though the situation of a Windows-only program with dependencies on CoApp packages that someone wants to install on Linux. It would be nice if installing that didn't fail. Again, it's not a particularly pressing issue just something to think about. Eric On Thu, Apr 7, 2011 at 8:34 PM, William A.

Re: [Coapp-developers] Superceeding Packages...
I think it should tell something like You already have a newer version installed and ask if you want to use the old one as the new “current”. Hälsningar, Fredrik Sundqvist 2011/4/12 Garrett Serack garre...@microsoft.com Howdy, I’m just working on the package composition support right now… If you remove a package, and there is a previous version still installed, I’m thinking that it becomes the “current” version automatically. I can also easily add command-line support to make an arbitrary given version the “current” one, regardless of which is the most recent. The question is, what should the default behavior be when you install an older version when you have a newer on installed? Do I keep the most recent as the current unless you specifically state that you want **this specific version I’m installing** as the new “current”?

Yeah, that is easy enough to do, and certainly the GUI should be really up front about that.
