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.
