Hi All,
I have a following question.
I have component:
<DirectoryRef Id="Directory.Core.Pages.Include">
<Component Id="Component.Include"
Guid="99983D32-636A-47FE-BC10-E20C5E7C1968">
<CreateFolder/>
<File Id="File.Include.Footer.html" Name="Footer.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\Footer.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.Header.html" Name="Header.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\Header.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.InnerPageFooter.html"
Name="InnerPageFooter.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\InnerPageFooter.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.InnerPageHeader.html"
Name="InnerPageHeader.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\InnerPageHeader.html"></File>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
Now when I try to create patch in next version, I've changed the
InnerPageHeader.html file. During patch creation I've received the warning
that InnerPageHeader.html is changed but Footer.html which is KeyPath wasn't
changed. This file will not be patched on the target system if the
REINSTALLMODE does not contain 'A'. The KeyPath file should also be changed
and included in your patch.
But I don't need to change Footer.html.
I've tried to add registry entry for each component and use it as KeyPath:
<DirectoryRef Id="Directory.Core.Pages.Include">
<Component Id="Component.Include"
Guid="99983D32-636A-47FE-BC10-E20C5E7C1968">
<CreateFolder/>
<RegistryValue Root="HKLM"
Key="Software\$(var.Manufacturer)\$(var.ProductClass)\Components\99983D32-63
6A-47FE-BC10-E20C5E7C1968" Type="string" Value="$(var.ProductVersion)"
KeyPath="yes" />
<File Id="File.Include.Footer.html" Name="Footer.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\Footer.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.Header.html" Name="Header.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\Header.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.InnerPageFooter.html"
Name="InnerPageFooter.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\InnerPageFooter.html"></File>
<File Id="File.Include.InnerPageHeader.html"
Name="InnerPageHeader.html"
Source="$(var.BinDir)Include\InnerPageHeader.html"></File>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
Since value of registry entry is $(var.ProductVersion), which I will change
on each next build, I've assumed that in this case I will have changed
keypath entry on each build and will pass the warning described above.
But (I don't know why) in this case I've received the same warning about
registry entry:
Warning 21
File 'File.Include.InnerPageHeader.html' in Component 'Component.Include'
was changed, but the KeyPath file 'reg25467E6DA6AD8545CE0253E2C2F3C454' was
not. This file will not be patched on the target system if the REINSTALLMODE
does not contain 'A'. The KeyPath file should also be changed and included
in your patch.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
