Hi,
I am stuck with the same problem. Hence, if any one of you have its solution, then it will be great if you can post it here or email it to me.
I have two cabs - cabA and cabB. I want to package them together into a cabC. Now, cabC will be installed over the air (OTA) using a device management tool. Hence, using desktop installer is out of question.
Some of the possibilities I am thinking of are -
I have the .inf files for both the cabs and hence was thinking of a way to merge the two cabs into one. When I simply merge the _setup.xml of the two files into a single _setup.xml and create a cab with all the files of the two cabs - I get the desired result that both of the apps are installed. However, in the add/remove section, only the name off the second app (which ever is placed second in the .xml file) is visible. As expected, it removes both the apps if u select it. Now, I want the two apps to be visible seperately in the add/remove programs section.. so, this is where I am getting stuck with this method.
The second possibility is one that I can visualize but dont have any idea on how to get it done. I want to put cabA and cabB in cabC and then somehow, when cabC executes and extracts these two cabs, I want to have the two of them executed one by one. Is there a way to get this done??
