Hi, all
I'm trying to work out some kind of service pack installer, which will install
new features on the installed system without any effect on the existing running
services.
Anyone could help me the following questions about Installer package using WIX
produced?
For example:
I have installed our product on a distributed environment and it is online
work, now I have some other new features for this product, and I want to
install all these new features into the installed product system online.
Q1: If I don't want to use patch or service pack to install these new
features, could I produce a new MSI which is only with these new features
components and has the same produce code/name as the existed running product
system, And make sure this feature's MSI can install these new features into
the existed running system successfully as the result of clean installer using
a complete product MSI package including all the old and new features? WIX can
support this kind of MSI produced? If yes, what I should do? Any recommended
docs?
Q2: Service pack is kind of collection for patch install package? Is it MSP?
Q3: If there is some kind of feature installer tech, please recommend me
some detailed tutorials and excellent documents on it?
I'm fishy on WIX and Installer, Be appreciated for any hints, thanks
