[WiX-users] wix 2.0 to 3.0 - COM registration

Tue, 23 Oct 2007 22:58:16 -0700 

Hi,

 

I am trying to upgrade my WXS from wix 2.0 to 3.0, and I need some help with
the following components, 

 

This is what I had with wix 2.0 (I think it is plain COM registration),

      </Component>

 

With wix 3.0, I believe we can do the following :

 

      <Component Id="C__C7B647BBC14F480D2AB1275EBFAB790E"
Guid="3B0A1A7E-DEAB-1563-982A-A35688C44003">

        <File Id="_C7B647BBC14F480D2AB1275EBFAB790E"
Name="GSRExcelPlugin.dll" Source="SourceDir\abc.dll" Vital="yes"
KeyPath="yes" AssemblyManifest="_C7B647BBC14F480D2AB1275EBFAB790E"
AssemblyApplication="_C7B647BBC14F480D2AB1275EBFAB790E" Assembly=".net"
DiskId="1">

          <Class Id="_0894EC79176747A084D2638FA6C364A2"
Context="InprocServer32"  />

        </File>

 

Will it work? And secondly how do I handle a dll which has 2 classes (abc.1
and abc.2)
