Hi,
When I have created an setup project for my program, it generates a setup
file and a MSI file.
Since the users of my program all have winXP, I only distribute the MSI
file.
What I want is that the user only have to doubleclick on the msi file to
install the program.
This is no problem the first time, but a second, after some changes, the
user has to go to the 'add software' window to remove the old version before
he can install de new one.
Isn't it possible to have it just overwrite the previous version?
How do I make the MSI file aware of this?
rg,
Eric

When I build a setup project, the dependency in the setup project is tied to
the version in which it was built.
Is there a way to build a setup project that can be used in both versions of
the Framework?
There is provision to build the app's .exe so that the .exe can be used in
either version of the framework, is there not a way to do this for the setup
project? I looked at the options, did not find any. Did I miss something?

I have an app that includes media files (graphics) and those included in the
msi setup.
They are not 100% necessary and can change. The problem is if I delete one
of them, then the next time I run my app, it launches windows installer ---I
assume trying to correct the problem.
What should I do in my setup to prevent this?
Thanks,

Hello All,
This is annoying. I am trying to build scipy right now but every .so
file requires my adding "-lpython2.5 -lpthread -lm -lutil -ldl -shared"
to the ld flags.
Main Question: When building with "setup.py", where can I include this
information so I don't have to link every .so file by hand?
Also, why would this not be caught by the developers of scipy and numpy?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
