Hi,
Following scenario:
WiX 3.6, build same solution as 2 bundles: one all containing for the web
and another for a CD image.
Now I have the issue that PackageWeb runs even when PackageCD is already
installed. Digging in the mailing list I understood that here some
kind of BundleID
is set at each
There are no plans to make the Bundle Id settable. There are so many things
that would start to fall apart if that value was the same for two Bundles.
Huge numbers of conflicts. smile/ RelatedBundle is a fantastic way to
address the problem. You could even Bundle/@Tag the different bundles and
To interject. If you do have two related bundles. The one you are installing
must be a higher version than the one already installed in order for the
installed one to be uninstalled. Is this correct? If both are installed and
at same version then you'd have two entries in ARP?

Not necessarily. Bundles can be related in a few different ways. What you
are describing is an upgrade Related Bundle. In that case, it behaves as
you describe. However, you can use detect Related Bundles and the engine
will send you back the information about all the Bundles that share an
Ok I understand. So if you have a custom BA you can use detect and handle the
removal yourself. Thanks.

upgrade, addon, patch Related Bundles.

But you can write code in your custom BA to do that. That's what I meant.

Yes, true. The engine will call OnRelatedBundleDetected() so your custom BA
can do whatever with the detected Related Bundles.
