Managed DirectX 9.0 installation in XPe

[VijayS]

Hi all,

A standard Windows installation of DirectX requires the user to use the
command line <b>DXSetup.exe /InstallManagedDX</b> to install the
managed (.net) DirectX functionality.

Does anyone know whether the standard DirectX 9 XPe component (SP2)
installs these <b>managed</b> features onto the device?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know if its possible to install it with the original component....

But I have created a component, which calls as an FBA Gen command the
mdxredist....
This installs managed directX and it is working without any problems....

Best Regards,
Mario

Hi Mario,

Using mdxredist.msi works perfectly to install managed Direct X.

However, the FBA Gen command I made gets an unspecific error when I try
to build the configuration.

It says, "Error 1004: Invalid resource: "Install_Managed_DX9"

I can't work out why I'm getting this error.

Mario, could you please email me the component you created for this?
Thanks,
-Vijay

Duh, I worked it out.
The phase value should be 8500 and up according to XPe "Step by Step".

FBA gives the following error when trying to install Managed DirectX
during first-boot


"An error occured during the installation of assembly
Microsoft.DirectX,Version="1.0.0900.0", Culture="neutral",
PublicKeyToken="....."
HResult: 0x8002802F"

How can I get around this error?
Is there another way to install Managed DX with FBA?
