visual studio .net setup : installer warning: "Two or more objects have the same target location"

I keep getting these warning in my VS 2005 setup projects. Most of
these are upgraded from vs.net 2003 where they were working fine.

I suspect it's because in the Detected dependencies it is including
policies for both vc80_mfc and vc80_crt. My setup project installs
both mfc and non-mfc apps, so I believe both of these are needed.

There specific warnings are:

Two or more objects have the same target location
('[payload_ul]\8.0.50727.42.policy')
Two or more objects have the same target location
('[policydir]\8.0.50727.42.cat')
Two or more objects have the same target location
('[payload_ul]\8.0.50727.42.cat')
Two or more objects have the same target location
('[policydir]\8.0.50727.42.policy')

Any information on removing the warnings would be appreciated.

Thanks, J

Hi,

I was just wondering if you had any luck in removing the compiler warnings?

I am experiencing the exact same problem and can’t seem to find a solution anywhere on the internet.

Many thanks in advance,

Galit.

I haven't had a lot of time to look into this as I've had more pressing
issues. But it seems to be related to the different runtime libraries
you may have dependencies on. I forget the specifics but something like
if you are installing 2 components and one uses one set of runtime
libraries and another uses a different set of runtime libraries , it
may cause this, even if the apps are independent of each other.

It seems it may also be by how it determines the automatic
dependencies.

Let us know if you know find anything more about this too!

Thanks
