OptionalAppLinks fails when using mixed 32/64 applications into a same package

Hi,

I have a issue that can be easily reproduced.

 

1. launch a 32bit application (app_1) that use optionalApplinks

2. launch a 64bit application (app64_1) from the same ThinApp Application

     ==> it doesn't see any file provided by the optionalAppLinks

3. launch a 32bit child process from the app_1

     ==> it doesn't see any file provided by the optionalAppLinks

3. launch a 64bit child process from the app64_1

     ==> it doesn't see any file provided by the optionalAppLinks

 

 

Now, other test :

1. launch a 32bit application (app_1) that use optionalApplinks

2. launch a 32bit child process from the app_1

     ==> Everything is fine, the cild process can see all files that come with the dependency (optionalApplinks)

3. launch a 64bit application (app64_1) from the same ThinApp Application

4. launch a second 32bit child process from the app_1

     ==> it doesn't see any file provided by the optionalAppLinks

 

it is exactly the same if you start first the 64 bits application

 

I have joined sample project that shows the issue : (bug or misconfiguration ?)

on a 64bit windows OS :

     unzip OPTIONAL_ISSUE.zip

     launch Build_testApp.cmd ==> it will create a new directory TEST_APP/

          ==> cmd.exe is the 32bits cmd  (the root package only contains the file c:\main_appli.txt)

          ==> cmd64.exe is the 64bits cmd   (the root package only contains the file c:\main_appli.txt)

into  TEST_APP/plugins :

     PLUGIN1.dat provides the file C:\PLUGIN1.txt

     PLUGIN2.dat provides the file C:\PLUGIN2.txt

 

          ----->  test to check if files from plugins are available : Dir c:\

 

Does anybody have the clue ?

 

Thank you
