My application is dependant on the camerawrapper from S60 Platform Camera Example v3.0, and hence I have embedded that SIS in my application's SIS like below

;CameraWrapper
IF NOT package(0x2001ec5f)
; install camerawrapper.sisx only if not already installed
@"..\..\3rdPartyComponents\CameraWrapper\epoc32\InstallToDevice\CameraWrapper\sis\camerawrapper.sisx", (0x2001ec5f)
ENDIF

To avoid the camerawrapper being accidentally uninstalled I've added a dependency in the pkg-file

;Dependencies
;Prevents other applications from uninstalling packages we depend upon
;Dispalys a warning message if a dependant SIS is uninstalled
(0x2001ec5f), 1, 10, 0, {"CameraWrapper"}

When installing my application I get a dialog saying "Component Camerawrapper is missing. Continue?"

I think this query is rather unnecessary since the camerawrapper SIS is embedded in my application's SIS.

Is there a way to prevent this query??

Thanks!

I suppose it is not there yet then, and the question is thus asked, the dependency I suppose it not supposed to be used like that, it is supposed to check for the actually required dependencies to be already in the device when installing this package.

You are right, the camerawrapper is not installed yet. But it will be when my app is installed.

Are you sure dependencies are supposed to give warnings for embedded SIS's?? That feels like a bug in the installer framework.

[symbianyucca]

I wouldn't really see it as a bug, I would see it a simply feature that the requirements specified in the sis, should indeed be already present in the device when the sis file is installed..

Hrmm, OK

So I have to choose between having a user friendly installation and to be warned when a dependant SIS is uninstlled?
