It is a waste and no one seems to have an answer that works well.  One
question, why do you need to put the file in two places?  If it's in the GAC
everyone can get to it, right?  Why double place it?

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

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.
