• Visual Studio Questions about DSL Integration Powertoy

  Hi All, I have some questions about this new power toy that is just released. I'm a little bit confused with the functionality and the real "power" of this toy. It is about accessing a model of DSL from another DSL. Does this really mean I can access my Language1 from my Language2 Can I reference them wherever I want as long as I have the DIS How about if they are in different company namespace (just curious) Because in the sample that came with the installation, I saw nothing like communicating with other DSL (please correct me if I'm wrong). And about the application of this integration, can I put two different DSL designers in one time debugging Yes, later on with this ability I want to deploy "one" package of two D ...Show All

• Windows Forms Registry Condition

  Hi, In the registry editor for my setup project, I want to specify that the values I have provided for some keys, should only be applied upon install, not on update. So for instance say I have version 1.1 of my package. If the user installs the application for the 1st time from the resulting msi, the registry values should be set. If the user is upgrading from version 1.0 to 1.1, the msi should not touch the registry values. Is there a condition I can set on the values to make this happen Or any other way I tried the condition NOT UPGRADINGPRODUCTCODE and this did not work as it only applies to the uninstall phase of an update.
