The File element is necessary, but primarily serves as the source. Windows Installer delegates to fusion to install the assembly, and fusion does not allow for any other files that are not part of the assembly. This is the source of the error. If you want to have a copy of the file elsewhere (l

[WiX-users] Installing .NET assemblies in GAC

Are you setting the minimum version as 310 or 301? It should be 301 because the version is 3.01, so 3 * 100 + 1 = 301. The documentation in wix.chm was incorrect for a time, but should be fixed in more recent builds. Zenko Klapko Jr. wrote: > Hi, > > I've recently upgraded to Wix 3.0 and am havi

Re: [WiX-users] question to Assembly=".net"

App isolation doesn't really require the MsiAssembly* table values for managed assemblies (it does for native), but the additional benefit in WiX is that you can access bind variables for that assembly as documented in wix.chm. fgc wrote: > Hi all, > > So far I know that setting the Assembly=".

EXEs are loaded into memory by pages. If all pages are loaded into memory, then no pages need fetched from disk (the EXE, and perhaps some other depedency DLL if yo uhave any of those too are completely in memory at this point). So Windows Installer can safely remove it. yixie wrote: > Hi, > >

My guess would be that the intention was that wix input files should be valid xml. In your case, the initial file wasn't (even though the "effective" file, after post-processing, would have been). Personally, I wouldn't consider that a defect, more a case of "that's how it works". :-) Regar
