Combining 2 InstallAware Projects

Post by BWCDawg »

I have an odd situation. My company has 2 products. Lets call them product A and product B. The marketing guys want to sell a "Pro" version of the software and sell it as product C. Product C isn't a real program... its just product A + product B. They also want product C to be a single install... rather than having the user run 2 seperate installs.

I have looked at using the file bag or making a feature based install, but I don't think either will really do what I need. What I want to do is create a third installer (product C) that is just a wrapper for product A and product B. I don't want product C to have its own entry in add/remove programs, or have any shortcuts, or anything at all really. I just want it to run the 2 programs in sequence. This way I only need to update product A and B and then just rebuild product C to get everything in sync.

Is there an easy way to do this?
