Summary: KeyPath not resolved correctly for nested registry entries
Initial Comment:
When I use the following registry definition:
<Registry Root="HKCU" Key="Software\MyComp\MyApp">
<Registry Name="Test1" Type="string" Value="1"
KeyPath="yes" />
<Registry Name="Test2" Type="string" Value="2" />
</Registry>
the compiler generates three Registry table rows - one
for the key itself, and two for the two values. What's
more, it sets the entry for the registry key entry to
the the KeyPath of the component, instead of the one
for Test1.
When I use the following settings
<Registry Root="HKCU" Key="Software\MyComp\MyApp"
Name="Test1" Type="string" Value="1"
KeyPath="yes" />
<Registry Root="HKCU" Key="Software\MyComp\MyApp"
Name="Test2" Type="string" Value="2" />
the compiler generates only two Registry table rows,
one each for the two name-value pairs (and not another
one for the key itself). Also it correctly sets the row
for Test1 as the component's key path.
To me the above two defintions are logically the same,
and should generate the same MSI table rows, but they
don't. Plus the first definition incorrectly sets the
parent key as the key path, and not the value.
