I would start trying to use 3 different upgrade codes and using Upgrade table to prevent installation of "lower" versions of the product. My concert in this approach - not sure if upgrade from Lite to Basic to Premium will work smoothly - just need to find it out empirically.
If it won't work - can add some registry key that will say the current installed type (Lite/Basic/Premium) and LaunchCondition will check it and prevent unwanted downgrades. Or maybe file search to search for specific file that does not exist in higher versions. -----Original Message----- From: Tad Carlucci [mailto:tad.carlu...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, June 17, 2013 07:01 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to handle multiple versions Can someone point me in the direction to reach this goal: My requirement is for three flavors of the application: Lite, Basic, and Premium; each released as a separate MSI package. The user can only move up the chain. For example, if the Basic is installed, Lite cannot be installed. If, in the future, that user installs Premium, any Basic installation must be removed. Updates will be synchronous, bumping the version numbers of all three packages at the same time. Thus, if the user has Basic 1.2.0 installed, the user may install any later version or Basic, or switch a Premium version 1.2.0 or later. But that user can not install any Lite package, or any earlier Basic package. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
