I'm a little foggy on what the specific arguments are for installing .Net assemblies, our product requires that the assemblies be installed in both the GAC and INSTALLDIR. I've tried creating duplicate components, but am getting ICE30 errors during install. The component definitions look like (abbreviated):
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="GlobalAssemblyCache" ShortSourceName="Global~1" SourceName="GlobalAssemblyCache"> <Component Id="DevExpress.Data.v7.3" Guid="{B4DC2878-F1C4-453C-A0F8-4B76CE5644C7}"> <File Id="devexpress.data.v7.3" Name="DevExpress.Data.v7.3.dll" KeyPath="yes" ShortName="DEVEXP~1.DLL" Assembly=".net" AssemblyManifest="devexpress.data.v7.3" Source="..\..\..\..\3rdPartyFiles\DevExpress\2007 v7.3.7\DevExpress.Data.v7.3.dll" /> </Component> </Directory> <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR"> <Component Id="NG_DevExpress.Data.v7.3" Guid="{AD9A08C0-E43A-4d42-AFD0-FBC3A8AD01B7}"> <File Id="NG_devexpress.data.v7.3" Name="DevExpress.Data.v7.3.dll" KeyPath="yes" ShortName="DEVEXP~1.DLL" Assembly=".net" AssemblyManifest="devexpress.data.v7.3" Source="..\..\..\..\3rdPartyFiles\DevExpress\2007 v7.3.7\DevExpress.Data.v7.3.dll" /> </Component> </Directory> The error thrown is: ICE30: The target file 'DEVEXP~1.DLL|DevExpress.Data.v7.3.dll' is installed in '[TARGETDIR]\' by two different components on an SFN system: 'DevExpress.Data.v7.3.B6A5B460_6165_47E9_A9B7_7D44808C7B98' and 'NG_DevExpress.Data.v7.3.B6A5B460_6165_47E9_A9B7_7D44808C7B98'. This breaks component reference counting. Am I using the correct syntax for installing to the GAC? I'm not sure why WiX thinks both files are going to [TARGETDIR]. This is with WiX 3.0.3704.0 What's the proper way to install an assembly to both GAC and a non-GAC folder. -- -Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
