Installing Assemblies in GAC
Hi,
We are installing .NET assemblies to GAC for ur product A, in our install setup using the Global assembly cache in Wise under the Files tab. In our release the assembly versions of the .NET assemblies that were installed into the GAC was 9.3.1.0.
We are working on creating a patch for the product which needs to update the .NET assemblies in GAC. We have other solutions/products B,C,D that have dependencies on these files in GAC. So, we updated our assembly versions to 9.31.1.0 for the files that need to be updates. SInce GAC can have multiple versions of the .NET assemblies installed we were expecting files with both the assembly versions to be installed in the GAC. At first we were having trouble with the wsi setup recognizing the changed attributes of the files. So we checked on the option - of Rescan Assembly attributes on compile so that it recognizes the changed assembly versions.
Now, the problem is that though wise recognoizes the changed assembly versions, on installing the msp GAC has only the files with latest aseembly versions and not the old ones that were released with assembly version 9.3.1.0
Any suggestions or help as to what could be going wrong?
Thanks.
