[WiX-users] Upgrading multiple versions of a product

2008-10-28 Thread Alex Schearer
Hi again, I'm running into trouble when I'm trying to install/remove/install a 
patch which applies to multiple versions of a product. Here's a snippet from 
the WXS for the patch in question:

(Imagine I'm upgrading product Foo to version C. Version A and B exist in the 
wild.)






Now let's say I apply the patch to an installed copy of version B. The patch 
will apply and remove successfully, I can even reapply the patch. Next let's 
say I apply the patch to an installed copy of version A. The patch will apply 
and remove successfully again, but this time I cannot reapply the patch. (OK so 
it obviously doesn't look like it removed successfully.) Can anyone shed some 
light on why this is happening? I notice that if I change the order numbers 
then it changes which version can be correctly uninstalled, so I imagine that 
when I try to remove the changes from version A it is repealing the changes as 
though it were version B... if so how can I work around this?

Thanks for any insight, Alex

Subject: [WiX-users] Updating multiple versions of a product

Is this the correct way to apply a patch to multiple versions of a product? 
Let's say that I want to update versions A, B, and C of a product Foo:







Or, is it possible to simply have one target image, say targeting version A? 
(Assuming that A is older than B is older than C.)

Thanks, Alex

[WiX-users] Multiple products, multiple families?

2008-10-24 Thread Alex Schearer
If I want to update multiple products in a single MSP do I have to create 
multiple families, one for each product?

[WiX-users] updating multiple products

2008-10-21 Thread Alex Schearer
Hi, I'm trying to create a patch for two products, let's say Foo and Bar. I 
wanted to know how I should go about creating a patch for them?  I have a .wxs 
file which I'm using as a template. It has a single UpgradeImage tag which 
picks out the upgrade and target MSI's. Should I simply add a second 
UpgradeImage element?

Thanks, Alex
