I believe the confusion you are having stems from the usage of util:ProductSearch inside your BA. That search would mirror the functionality of the ProductSearch within a MSI, which only populates the Upgrade table in the MSI with the Upgrade code of a MSI. Windows Installer only knows or cares about Windows Installer based installs, so it's going to use Msi* API's to query based on the upgrade code.
In short, util:ProductSearch is working as intended, but it isn't intended to work with a bundle upgrade code. -----Original Message----- From: Marco Tognacci [mailto:mark...@live.it] Sent: Sunday, May 17, 2015 4:10 PM To: WiX - users Subject: Re: [WiX-users] R: Extend ProductSearch for working with Burn exe Package Is there any mistake in my code or is there a bug in the util:ProductSearch extension?How can I make this code working?Thanks > > From: mark...@live.it > > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > Date: Wed, 13 May 2015 01:02:45 +0200 > > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] R: Extend ProductSearch for working with > > Burn exe Package > > > > I have used util:ProductSearch to detect condition for my BurnPackage, but > > it doesn't work, I use the last official release 3.9R2, the variable > > assigned is equal to 2 (absent) even if the package is installed (I can > > check manually the registry and I can find the UpgradeCode of the package > > in a variable BundleUpgradeCode inside the installed product sections) > > <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi"; > > xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";> <Fragment> > > <util:ProductSearch UpgradeCode="{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}" > > Variable="MyBurnPackage_Installed" Result="state" /> <PackageGroup > > Id="MyBurnPackageGroup"> <ExePackage Id="MyBurnPackage" Cache="no" > > Compressed="no" Permanent="yes" Vital="yes" > > SourceFile="..\Externals\MyBurnPackage.exe" Name="MyBurnPackage.exe" > > DetectCondition="MyBurnPackage_Installed > 2"/> </PackageGroup> > > </Fragment> </Wix> > > Is there any mistake in my code or is there a bug in the > > util:ProductSearch extension?How can I make this code working?Thanks > > > > > From: jocoo...@jackhenry.com > > > To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > > Date: Mon, 11 May 2015 12:52:57 +0000 > > > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] R: Extend ProductSearch for working with Burn > > > exe Package > > > > > > I think there is some confusion. 1) util:ProductSearch works with > > > Burn/Bundle.
