I built my bundle, and ran it, which installed everything in the chain. Then I rebuilt my bundle, and ran it, without incrementing Version, which installed nothing, except it did add itself to "Programs and Features". I now see two entries for the same Version of the installer: one that actually installed stuff, one that installed nothing.
Are you are saying it should have rolled back or not added an entry? Although not normal, since I did not manually increment Version, it should not have add a second entry in "Programs and Features", so it sounds like it is broken. When would that ever be a useful behavior? I am using the standard WixStandardBootstrapperApplication. Seems like the WixStandardBootstrapperApplication should know better. My Version policy for bundles doesn't exist yet, as I am learning to work with wix bundles. Normally I have a version for my application, and it does not change from the target release name. Wix seems to require a Version for the bundle it self, which seems like a strange maintenance step, and I don't see the usefulness yet. I would rather just create bundles, and have logic in each bundle to decide what to install, and if nothing installs, not add an entry for the bundle in "Programs and Features".
