Re: [WiX-users] dynamic library registration
OTOH in this case just use the proper comdlg32 msm which will do everything properly and not break stuff (or at least if it does you can legitimately blame microsoft..). Now I am completely lost. What should I do in order to just use the proper comdlg32 msm? I know that msm files are merge modules but I do not need to use them. I am the only one who is creating this new installer. I tried tallow but it failed for some reason. What I am doing wrong?

Definately don't 'upgrade' anything found there - you have no idea what other applications you're breaking whilst attempting to do that. SFP will undo your action anyway for most files. I guess I need to self-register these two libraries but I do not know how. I have never used DLL before so I need some introduction. Normally you'd use Tallow to work out what the selfreg did and code it into the wix file. OTOH in this case just use the proper comdlg32 msm which will do everything properly and not break stuff (or at least if it does you can legitimately blame microsoft..). Actually I have the same problem with two other applications. It is edition of educational software. In that case is it better to place libraries to system folder than place them to application's folder? There's almost never a case to modify the system folder. Device drivers is about the only one I can think of. Tony - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Yes, but you're not the only one creating an installer that uses comdlg32. According to the quoted text, Microsoft created a Merge Module that can be used to deploy comdlg32. You can use that in your setup. Frederik. - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Take a look at in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules if you have Visual Studio installed in your system. Otherwise, you may download from http://www.installshield.com/downloads/modules.asp?prod=cxlan=englishxmlUse=y Regards, Chesong Lee -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Standa Kunc Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2006 6:57 PM To: Frederik Carlier Cc: WiX-users Subject: Re: [WiX-users] dynamic library registration Could someone help me to get these msm files?
