2006-11-28 Thread John Calcote

y link the libraries. BTW, there is also a separate installation utility (.exe) for redistributables - vcredist... .exe, but I'm fairly certain this is not the proper way to integrate into WIX installers. John >>> André Pönitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 11/21/2006 12:54 AM >>&

John, I don't think it's fair to say that you should NEVER run your own code. I believe the spirit of the thing dictates that you use MSI data wherever you can, and write code for exactly what you can't do with MSI. Clearly, there's a need for this. Microsoft could never anticipate every possible
