What exactly is happening that makes your assembly being installed into the GAC a 3.5 or a 4.0? It's not clear to me what "GAC against 3.5" means unless you think that GacUtil is running somewhere during the install. When people talk about targeting a version of the framework from their apps it's typically driven by a config file with a supportedruntime element targeting a framework version. But if you mean you have two versions of each assembly (one 3.5 the other 4.0) then the 3.5 assemblies would be in one feature and the 4.0 in the other.

This is actually a customer scenario, so back to my question, is there any way in WIX or targetting one .NET versus other for GAC'ing purposes? > From: wsulli...@softdocs.com > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Tue, 4 May 2010 06:09:41 -0400 > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to GAC an assembly against .NET 3.5 and 4.0 > > This is something you don't have to worry about.
