Re: [WiX-users] Burn Bootstrapper run executable on exit [P]
Classification: Public Tim, Once again I am confused why you are trying to reinvent the wheel. Burn already does this! Check out the "LaunchTarget" event... http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/xsd/bal/wixstandardbootstrapperapplication.html Steve -Original Message- From: TimM [mailto:timmay...@smarttech.com] Sent: September-08-14 5:25 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Burn Bootstrapper run executable on exit Oh and one more thing about customizing the burn bootstrapper theme files. I figured that if it was too much work to simply add a checkbox on the success screen and have it set to launch the app on finish, I figured that maybe just add a text control at the bottom that then informs the user what the "Launch" button will do and therefore they can choose to click on Launch to launch our tool or Close to finish the install. Again this works, but then during uninstall this text also shows up and therefore it would be great if we have a bit more control over added controls in the theme file so that we could easily condition controls so that they show on Not Installed only. So again if I am missing something that actually does this then let me know where I am going wrong. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Burn-Bootstrapper-run-executable-on-exit-tp7580830p7596718.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Want excitement?

Re: [WiX-users] Burn Bootstrapper run executable on exit [P]
Classification: Public Why are you reinventing the wheel? Burn already has a "button" to launch applications on the finish dialog, it is not a checkbox but a button: http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/xsd/bal/wixstandardbootstrapperapplication.html http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Burn-Launch-Payload-EXE-after-bootstrapp-installation-td7019706.html -Original Message- From: TimM [mailto:timmay...@smarttech.com] Sent: September-05-14 5:40 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Burn Bootstrapper run executable on exit Okay I was able to generate a check box field at the end of the bootstrapper, but now I need to know how it actually gets triggered to launch the app? Here is what I have in the theme file: #(loc.SuccessHeader) #(loc.LaunchAppCheckbox) #(loc.OptionsOkButton) #(loc.SuccessRestartText) #(loc.SuccessRestartButton) #(loc.SuccessCloseButton) Now the way have this it will create a un-checked check box and I also commented out the LaunchButton code and placed a OptionsOkButton control there. So it looks okay, but checking the check box does nothing at the moment and the OK button also does nothing. The finish dialog goes blank after hitting the OK button and then I have to close it by clicking on the 'X'. So how do I enable the buttons/checkbox to do what I need. Oh and on uninstall the checkbox also shows up so how to prevent that as well? Thanks again for any and all help. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Burn-Bootstrapper-run-executable-on-exit-tp7580830p7596688.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Slashdot TV.
