I've just made a mistake like the following simplified example
<Directory Id="SystemFolder">
<Component Id="a32.dll" Guid="*" Win64="no">
<File Id="a32.dll" Name="a.dll" Source="a32.dll" />
</Component>
</Directory>
<Directory Id="System64Folder">
<Component Id="a64.dll" Guid="*" Win64="yes">
<File Id="a64.dll" Name="a.dll" Source="a64.dll" />
</Component>
</Directory>
This is a 64 bit installer, which needs to install both the 32 and 64
bit versions of a DLL in the respective system folders.
This all works fine until I come to do an administrative installation,
at which point both DLLs unpack to the same location, with one
overwriting the other.
I know (now!) that the solution is to give a Name attribute on the two
Directory elements, e.g.
<Directory Id="SystemFolder" Name="SystemFolder">
:
<Directory Id="System64Folder" Name="System64Folder">
:
but would it be possible for WiX to warn me if I do something stupid
like this?
