Hi guys,
I was wondering if the following behaviour is a bug or not (before I posted
it to bug-track)...
I have an MSI which places a single DLL on the filesystem, and some registry
keys, both within the same 'directory' element, and within the same
'component' element.
Ie (pseudo-xml)
<Directory>
<Component>
<File Source="MyAssembly.dll"/>
<Registry/>
</Component>
</Directory>
This works correctly, placing the file on the filesystem, and creating the
registry key.
HOWEVER:
If I configure the File to place the dll in the GAC (vital/MSIL), because
the file is no longer placed within the enclosing directory, the registry
key is no longer created either.
Should this really behave this way? Took me a while to find out what was
going on, and I could only resolve it by either no putting the DLLs in the
GAC, or by putting the registry keys and files in separate Component
elements (of which I did the latter).
Thanks!
