Title: Embedding the binaries in MSI

On this theme, is there a way to get a file to be placed both in the GAC and in another defined file system folder? I need some files to be placed in both locations. Currently I achieve this by including the file twice, which seems a waste.

 

Thanks

 

Darren

I am currently using the WIX version 2.0. 3902. I have some ..NET 2.0 assemblies placed under some folder. My MSI refers to that folder while installing. I just wanted to embed assemblies into the MSI instead of having then in a separate folder. And how can I GAC 2.0 assemblies?

To install an assembly to the GAC, specify Assembly=".net" as an attribute in the File element. MSI still requires you to specify a directory, though the actual file will go into the GAC.
