c# - Add refrence to Iconic.dll (DotNetZip) In My Wix Installer -


i have program uses file 'ionic.zip.dll' dotnetzip library , apply installer program.

i'm using dotnetzip.

now cant add reference 'ionic.zip.dll' wix(installer) project, when try add reference following error:

“a reference [filepath] not added. please make sure file accessible, , valid wix reference.“

i think wix accept projects reference , not dll files.

what can ? lot help!

i think wix accept projects reference , not dll files.

i waiting this, since wasn't sure meant "reference".

when comes wix find adding references projects/dlls utter pain. maybe i'm bad them, i'm not sure, easiest way found add project (and of it's dependencies) make bunch of component elements, , assign each 1 single file folder in file being compiled to, see general example below (this based off of how lay out product.wxs files):

<fragment>     <componentgroup id="mainprogramfiles" directory="installfolder">         <component id="fooexe">             <file source="..\foo\foo.exe"/>         </component>         <component id="bardll">             <file source="..\foo\bar.dll"/>         </component>         <component id="dotnetzipdll">             <file source="..\foo\dotnetzip.dll"/>         </component>         <component id="anotherexampledll">             <file source="..\foo\anotherexample.dll"/>         </component>     </componentgroup> </fragment> 

note: you'll need build other projects before wix files in order work.

if have questions, feel free ask, hope helps.
