WiX - Include ARM64 binary in installer

Open Liryna opened this issue 8 years ago • 9 comments

Dokan can build and run on ARM. The installer currently does not include the ARM binary. It would be great to create another WXS for ARM and include it in the main installer. See #431

@Liryna Windows SDK overrides for desktop apps aren't needed anymore now. And yeah, WXS is the only remaining issue, but remember that IoT doesn't have MSI at all

Humm @woachk , I am not sure to understand here. What would we need to change ?

Also about this issue, from what I understand (and what you said) ARM/ARM64, IoT Core do not have way to install driver/app from an installer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot-core/develop-your-app/appinstaller https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot-core/learn-about-hardware/driverdeployment

Is this really the case ? If so, there is no need to add ARM/ARM64 in WiX no ? Sorry but since I never touched this version of the OS 😢 I am really looking to be guided here on the current state of how people use IoT Core.

ARM(64) Windows 10 is available for desktop systems and will be on market in the next few months, it's currently available in Taiwan for example.

Ok So only ARM64 will need to be in the installer ?

Yes, Arm32 desktop Windows exists and that's where my screenshot comes from, but it isn't public so it doesn't really matter for almost everyone (except me :-) ).

Related note: difx.lib isn't available on ARM & ARM64 Windows SDKs
