I don't want to add a prerequistites about Visual C++ Redistributable for vs2010,because I only need "msvcr100.dll". How can I do to make my DLL work fine? You can use merge modules for this. On the machine you built the dll with, search C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files for *.msm. It s...

Re: Components and Registry Entries

Thanks for the response! In regards to the first point: Note that I only want all registry entries associated with the component's dll/exe under that single component, not every registry entry in the project. For example: All registry entries related to foo.exe attached to the foo.exe component, whe...

Components and Registry Entries

Hello again. I have a few questions regarding components and registry entries. I'm using AI 11.7. 1) What is the best way to attach registry entries to an existing component (when importing from a registry file)? When I import registry entries from a registry file, they are added as new components. ...

A Few Feature Requests

Hi. I have a few feature requests I would like to submit. - Support for the MinorUpdateTargetRTM property. This was requested years ago (http://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7757), but I don't yet see it implemented. This seems like an odd omission, considering this was in...

Re: Minor Upgrades Have No User Interface

Thanks for the reply. I look forward to the addition of this feature in the future. For anyone else that might need a work around, I think something like this will work (I haven't fully tested this yet): • Add a "Display message box" custom action to the beginning of the execute phase to p...

Minor Upgrades Have No User Interface

Hi. This is a question that i think might turn into a feature request. When performing a minor upgrade (not a patch), no user interface is displayed, and there is nothing to suggest that a minor upgrade occurred and that it finished (I couldn't tell if there was a progess dialog, as my installation ...

Re: Building 32bit and 64bit Installers

Ok, that makes sense. Since the subproduct folders need to install to the same directory level as the main product folder (this is a requirement of our software), I think I will need to define APPDIR as [AI_ProgramFiles][Manufacturer] instead of [AI_ProgramFiles][Manufacturer]\[ProductName] and trea...

Building 32bit and 64bit Installers

I want to create a single AI project for our 32bit and 64bit installers. The scenario is a bit complex. Here is my best attempt at explaining: On a 64bit machine: 64bit Installer: - Installs 64bit files to C:\Program Files\<Company>\<ProductName> - Optionally installs 64bit files to C:\Program Files...

64 bit DSN

Not sure if this is a bug, or I'm doing something wrong. I have Advanced Installer 11.6 Trial. I'm testing the ODBC Data Sources creation in an Architect Installer project. I cannot create a 64bit DSN. The behavior is as follows (testing the install on Windows Server 2012 64bit): 32bit Install: 32bi...
