I know that I had trouble with Component
referenceing because you can't reference a single component from multiple
features... at least, I couldn't get it to work... [DerekC] You should absolutely be able to
reference a single component from multiple features using multiple ComponentRef
elements under each feature. In WiX 3.0, it's also possible to create
groups of components to be included under a feature by using the ComponentGroup
element (this brings you extremely close to what you'd get with a merge
module). [Shmarya] I know that I had difficulty with this... kept
getting errors about components being referenced from more than one feature...
perhaps it was a bug which is now fixed? [RobMen] What was the error message exactly? My guess is that
you needed to mark one of the ComponentRef elements as Primary=”yes”
so that all the advertised goo gets associated with the correct Feature. |
