Ok. It would be "cool" if you could use a Burn-Package like a Msi-Package and it would know, if it is allowed to perform an upgrade. I have tested yet, that the WiXStBA stops with an error, if one tries to install an older bundle over a newer yet installed one. So I was hoping that you can specify the "allowed" versions in order to get a better failing message. But now it seems to me, that I need a custom BA if I want to achieve that goal?
For our upgrades it could be possible, that a Msi-Package is sufficient - but first of all I am not sure about that yet and on the other hand I am not sure if it is possible to make the full installation via a burn bundle and the upgrades only via a Msi. As my C# knowledges are not so profound yet, I would like to avoid writing a custom BA... -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Gesendet: Montag, 1.

Today, if you have multiple Bundles with the same UpgradeCode, the higher version upgrades the lower versions. You can also upgrade other Bundle's UpgradeCodes by adding a RelatedBundle with the Action='upgrade' and the Id='UpgradeCodeOfOtherBundles'. Technically speaking, the Bundle/@UpgradeCode attribute is just short hand for the RelatedBundle syntax. That and it is required. 2012/9/28 Christian Hausknecht <chauskne...@beracom.de> > Hello folks, > > is there anything in Burn that provides a possibility to define a > minimum and a maximum bundle version for and upgrade like the > <UpgradeVersion>-Tags in WiX?
