如何创建一个Visual Studio安装项目以安装多个Windows服务

Question

I have 3 windows service with separate solutions. How can I install all the three with one visual studio Setup Project.

Answer 1

It's not clear why this is a difficulty, but perhaps you are stuck with the idea that the "project output" idea in a setup project means that you can have only one solution's output in a setup project.

The easiest thing to do is to create the setup project and then add (to the Application Folder) each of the service executables (which I assume have installer classes). Then add the three service executable installer classes as custom actions. To state the obvious, you allowed to have more than one custom action to install a service.
