Hi all,
I'm a new WiX user. I answered my own question on this, but I thought
I'd share given I didn't find any authoritative documentation on this.
Yes, It IS possible to create win32 side-by-side components containing
multiple DLL's. The key is that only one of the listed <File> elements
in the .wxs source should have the "Assembly", "AssemblyManifest", and
"KeyPath" attributes. If you try to add these to more than one element,
you will run into WiX validation errors.
Thus, your .wxs file will contain something like:
<Component Guid="{xxx}" Id="MyComponent">
<File Assembly="win32" AssemblyManifest="My.manifest"
Id="one.dll" Name="one.dll" Source="path\to\one.dll" KeyPath="yes"
Vital="yes" />
<File Id="two.dll" Name="two.dll" Source=" path\to\two.dll"
Vital="yes" />
<File Id="three.dll" Name="three.dll" Source="
path\to\three.dll" Vital="yes" />
...
<File Id="My.manifest" Name="My.manifest" Source="
path\to\My.manifest" Vital="yes" />
<File Id="My.cat" Name="My.cat" Source=" path\to\My.cat"
Vital="yes" />
</Component>
