I am using wix 3.9.721 and vs2013 (or vs2010). When I build a project (without making any changes to the source files:
In the case of a MSI project there is no change to the output file. In the case of a Bundle, the output file is updated, the ProductId changes, but the version is the same as the prior build because Compile was skipped due to no change in the inputs. This results in the Bundle being installed, when the "same" bundle is already installed, as a side-by-side entry in the ARP. (Obviously they are not the same since the ProductId (an "internal implementation") changed but the version did not change. Had some other source file changed my version would have been incremented by the compile process.) I saw another discussion in wix-devs some time ago, but it was a different situation (i.e. not including changes in wix extensions). Is the above scenario of the Bundle ProductId changing, even when MSBuild decides to skip compiling intended behavior or a bug? Thanks for the advice! -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Incremental-build-of-bundle-changed-productId-with-same-version-tp7596382.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
