Hey.
I have a question regarding the XmlFile element. In my installer, I'm using it
to modify a Unity configuration in an existing installation of another program
(I'm replacing one plug-in with another). The way I'm doing it looks like so:
<util:XmlFile Permanent="no" Id="SetPlugin" Action="setValue"
File="[OTHERPROGLOCATION]\OtherProg.exe.config"
ElementPath="/configuration/unity/container/register[\[]@type='OtherProg.IPlugin'[\]]"
Name="mapTo"
Value="MyProg.MyPlugin, MyProg, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=abcdef12345678900" />
However, on uninstall, the value is not returned to its original state, as one
would expect from setting Permanent="no" on the element. The documentation
claims "Specifies whether or not the modification should be removed on
uninstall." Yet, after uninstallation, the value of that field is still
"MyProg.MyPlugin, MyProg, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=abcdef12345678900", not whatever it was before the installation
took place.
Is this expected behavior? Am I missing a setting somewhere; is setting
Permanent="no" not enough? Help would be appreciated.
Best regards
