Question

I have created a widows application with setup project. I compiled and build.Everything looks fine.

For changing the configuration file during installation am trying to add a new Installer file. when i add it by default i get the below code

Collapse | Copy Code

[RunInstaller(true)]
    public partial class Installer : Installer
    {
        public Installer()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
    }

When i compile this Am gettin
Circular base class dependency involving ‘windows_setup.Installer’ and ‘windows_setup.Installer’

windows setup is the name space i used for the application. Then i found that i need to create the new classs which inbherits Installer.So i changed my class name to

public partial class MyInstaller : Installer

Now am Getting

Inconsistent accessibility: base class ‘windows_setup.Installer’ is less accessible than class ‘windows_setup.MyInstaller’

Suggest your ideas.

Thanks

Well, you can’t have a public class inheriting from an internal class for example. Try to set everything as internal if not required outside, or public otherwise.
