Registering a GAX Guidance Package in the Experimental Vs Hive

One of the features in the latest July 2007 CTP version of GAX/GAT is the possibility to include switches in the installer execution at design time (that's the switches that will be added in the installutil execution when you register a GP through the Register GAT action, as show in the following picture).

So in addition of this feature we've included a new switch that able you to register the package in the Experimental Vs hive or any other one that you're working on just specifying the RegistrationSettings attributes in your guidance package manifest as follow...

Note that any switch specified in the registration settings will be added to the installutil command at design time but it won't take effect in your setup project or if you run the installutil by hand. In that case you will have to specify that switches by hand.
