Hi All, I was wondering if the state of play has changed at all since http://stackoverflow.com/questions/703359/wix-add-new-file-to-shared-component was discussed?
Basically, I have Product1 (already released) and Product2 (in development) which both share the same component A.dll. A.dll is installed to %COMMONFILES%/MyProducts/. Product1 installs A.dll version 1.0.0, which is dependent upon D1.dll. Product2 installs A.dll version 1.1.0, which is dependent upon D1.dll and D2.dll. Due to the way that A.dll is used (it's a COM component registered in a thirdparty application, and we can only register one .dll) there isn't the option of creating newA.dll and putting that into Product2. (At least not without breaking Product1.) I think my only option is to add D2.dll in A.dll's component, breaking the component rules, and live with the fact that D2.dll will remain on the user's computer if they uninstall Product2 then uninstall Product1. At least then, if someone uninstalls Product2 our .dll will continue to run correctly. Does anyone have any further insight?
