Two versions of lightswitch desktop application

问题

I have deployed a lightswitch application that is being used in a production environment. I recently made some changes and need to publish a separate copy installed alongside the original for testing purposes.

I tried to look at this video1 on installing click-once applications side by side, but Lightswitch doesn't have the same options that a normal C# application has.

I edited the assembly name in the desktop client project but no luck.

Any suggestions?

回答1:

I'm not sure if this is right, but I managed to get it to install by editing the application deployment manifest. This file is generated when you publish the desktop client.

So the steps I tried

1. Edit the desktop client project file to change the assembly name in my source
2. Edit the published application manifest so the assemblyIdentity name matches

Again, I have no idea what i'm doing so if anyone knows better please tell me. Screenshot of the manifest tag i edited below.
