I have a component that gets installed into the GAC and I need to prevent it
from being removed during an uninstall. I've created an XSLT that get
applied during harvest. I need to add 'permanent' to the component, but it's
not working. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be with what I have?

Edwin as you described this is the behavior that is occurring as the

same.

Hi,
I'm trying during the harvesting of files with Heat to update the resulting

I came across the following link, but I can't seem to get it to work. My
*.wxs file after building does not have assembly=".net" added to

The situation is that I've created a website installer that will need the

I have the following scenario that I'd like to know if Wix is able to
handle. I have an assembly called bizobjects.dll with a version of 1.1.0.0
installed into the GAC, somewhere in configuring my setup I have an issue of
each upgrade to say 1.1.0.1 and so forth is getting installed and 1.1.0.0 is

I'm having some problems with getting a condition I've defined to work
properly. I have the following condition defined and I'm trying to have the
installer search the GAC for the existence of the assembly. If the assembly
isn't present I don't want to proceed with the installation, because it's a

even possible?
Here is where I'm assigning a value to my property.
