3rd edition shared dll

Hi,

I have two applications which share the same dll. This dll has been 
packed into a SIS file. So both applications are embedding this dll SIS.

They are specified in the following way;

@ source-filename,(component-uid)

For example;

@"CsHelpExample.sis",(0x100002c3)

My question is what will happen if I uninstall one of the application?

Will the application installer automatically recognize that the another 
application shares the same dll? I guess this is the purpose of embedded 
sis files.

However, I am afraid that when unistall one of the applications, the 
shared DLL is removed.

The system should not remove the shared dll until it's last client has been 
removed.
