No SetSecurity Project in german VSTO

  • Eric Donoho

    Hello Lorenz,

    The SetSecurity project that is described in this whitepaper is included in the OfficeVSTOWindowsInstaller.msi file that is provided with the whitepaper (see the link at the top of http://msdn.microsoft.com/office/default.aspx pull=/library/en-us/odc_vsto2005_ta/html/officevstowindowsinstallerwalkthrough.asp, just before the Contents heading). This project is not included with Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office.

    The {SamplesDir} folder mentioned in the instructions refers to the folder in which you extract the OfficeVSTOWindowsInstaller.msi file. By default, this folder will be: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Resources\VSTO2005 Windows Installer Sample.

    I hope this helps,

    Hi,

    In the second document you mentioned there's the phrase:

    To add the supplied project

    1. Using Windows Explorer, copy the SetSecurity project from the {SamplesDir}\projects directory to the directory containing the OutlookAddin Solution.
      Tip By default, the SamplesDir directory is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Resources\VSTO2005 Windows Installer Sample
    2. In Solution Explorer, right-click the OutlookAddin node.
    3. Point to Add on the shortcut menu, and then click Existing Project.
    4. Select the SetSecurity project.
    5. Click OK.
    6. In Solution Explorer, right-click the SetSecurity project, and then click Build.
    7. Add the primary output of the SetSecurity project to the Setup project.

      This enables the Windows Installer file to run the custom action that edits the application manifest

    In my VSTO there's not such a project.

    Hi

    It is not very clear what is the SetSecurity project you are referring to Could you please give me more details about this

    For deployment related issues, it might be useful to check the following:

    VSTO Deployment

    These whitepapers are interrelated, so be sure to review both of them.
