Hi,

I am building a merge module that will include the resource DLL’s for 5 languages and these resource dlls will be installed into GAC. Since the names of the resource DLLs are the same when I build the install, I want them to be underneath the Lang folder under GAC. However while I install I want all the resource DLLs to be placed in GAC.



Here is how my directory table looks like:



GAC_zh-CHS.FD72D623-F6B0-4a75-B517-9DE232E99CE6
GAC.FD72D623-F6B0-4a75-B517-9DE232E99CE6
.:zh-CHS

GAC_FR.FD72D623-F6B0-4a75-B517-9DE232E99CE6
GAC.FD72D623-F6B0-4a75-B517-9DE232E99CE6
.:FR

GAC.FD72D623-F6B0-4a75-B517-9DE232E99CE6 TARGETDIR
.:GLOBAL~1|Global Assembly Cache



With this structure, my build MSI has the directory structure as:



CD-Product

Global Assembly Cache

Zh-CHS

a.dll

b.dll

FR

a.dll

b.dll



However with these values in the directory table, my resource DLLs end up in C:\ or D:\ folder and don’t go to GAC.



Are there any tweaks that I can do to fix this issue.



Thanks,

Prasanna.
