#Microsoft visual studio 2017 counter update#
I want to take a few minutes to update everyone on some of the specific changes we’ve made to help with your compile times, and provide a few tips on how you can change your project or use technologies baked into the tools to help with your build times. It’s something we’re focusing on here in the Visual C++ Team, and has become a major point of emphasis during the most recent 15.5 release and will continue to be going forward.

It’s something that needs to be continually addressed as new patterns emerge and take hold (such as “unity” builds in gaming). If these numbers are not the same, it is assumed that the file is trying to restart the system and exit the installation.As C++ programs get larger and larger and the optimizer becomes more complex the compiler’s build time, or throughput, increasingly comes into focus. InstallShield setup keeps track of PendingFileRenameOperations key count before and after the InstallShield prerequisite is run.

Visual C++ 2015-2019 installer is updating this key value with the names of files to be renamed when the system restarts.

Try installing Visual C++ 2015-2019 (圆4) installer manually on top of Visual C++ 2017 (圆4) installed, and observe PendingFileRenameOperations value under "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager".

You will see below entries in the log file if you run your setup using "setup.exe /debuglog" command,ĩ-18-2019: Creating new process for prerequisite, launching command line C:\InstallShield 2019 Projects\2019圆4\Product Configuration 1\Release 1\DiskImages\DISK1\ISSetupPrerequisites\\vc_redist.圆4.exe /qĩ-18-2019: Prerequisite process exited with return code 0ĩ-18-2019: PrereqEngine: Return Code from EXE: 0ĩ-18-2019: PrereqEngine: Reboot required - PendingFileRenameOperations value addedĩ-18-2019: PrereqEngine: Reboot Required You can try setting different option in the prerequisite behavior tab when reboot is detected. I think setup will automatically resume post rebooting the machine. This behavior is due to InstallShield setup detecting pending reboot based on PendingFileRenameOperations value (set by microsoft 2019 installer) as documented below. If anyone has any idea what is wrong, please help! I'd like this to work, and this installer must be delivered very soon! Screenshots of my prerequisite configuration are also attached. I've created a version of the prerequisite that logs the installation of Visual C++, and got the attached logs. Since Visual C++ 2015-2019 (圆4) replaces the Visual C++ 2017 (圆4) redistributables, to reproduce the issue, you must uninstall Visual C++ 2015-2019 (圆4), and reinstall Visual C++ 2017 (圆4).
