Re: [WiX-users] CustomAction in .msp MSI patch

2007-11-17 Thread Joseph Valet 

I finally got it working. My mistake was that I was trying to include the 
definition of the custom action into the patch definition. One must in fact 
define his custom actions in the base packages and then torch/pyro will detect 
the differences and include the custom action into the patch if necessary. Here 
is the code snipset that I am now using: {{{?xml version='1.0' 
encoding='UTF-8'?Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'

You theoretically only need to add it in the upgrade but if you put it in both 
that will work before you ship. If you already shipped your product, changing 
the target isn't really an option...

[WiX-users] CustomAction in .msp MSI patch

2007-11-16 Thread Joseph Valet 

Hi all,

I would like to know it is is possible to embed a Custom Action (type 2) in a 
WiX 3.x Patch (.msp file).

I base my work on the following example:

 * http://blogs.msdn.com/pmarcu/archive/2007/06/28/sample-patch.aspx

I enthusiastically added my custom action to the existing fragment:

{{{
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?
Wix xmlns=http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi;


PatchAllowRemoval=no
Manufacturer=corp
MoreInfoURL=http://www.dummy.com/;
DisplayName=prod
Description=prod descr
Classification=Update
   
Media Id=5000 Cabinet=RTM.cab
PatchBaseline Id=RTM/
/Media

PatchFamilyRefId=UpdatePatchFamily /
/Patch


Fragment

   PatchFamily Id=UpdatePatchFamily Version=2.0.0.35
ComponentRef Id=SampleComponent/
/PatchFamily
   
   InstallExecuteSequence
Custom Action=DoIt Sequence=1301 /
   /InstallExecuteSequence

   Binary Id=myDLL SourceFile=mydll.dll /

   CustomAction Id=DoIt 
BinaryKey=myDLL 
DllEntry=MyFunction
Return=check /

/Fragment

/Wix
}}}

When compiling such file, I obtain the following errors:

{{{
C:\DRIVER\msi_builder light.exe NEXThink myPatch.wixobj -out myPatch.wixmsp
Microsoft (R) Windows Installer Xml Linker version 3.0.2925.0
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 2003. All rights reserved.

C:\DRIVER\msi_builder\myPatch.wxs(34) : error LGHT0241 :
An unexpected row in the 'Binary' table was found in this patch.
Patches cannot contain the 'Binary' table.
C:\DRIVER\msi_builder\myPatch.wxs(36) : error LGHT0241 : 
An unexpected row in the 'CustomAction' table was found in this patch.
Patches cannot contain the 'CustomAction' table.
C:\DRIVER\msi_builder\myPatch.wxs(31) : error LGHT0241 : 
An unexpected row in the 'InstallExecuteSequence' table was found in this 
patch.
Patches cannot contain the 'InstallExecuteSequence' table.
}}}

So I guess it won't be possible to add CustomAction's to my patch. However, I 
would like to have a confirmation by experienced WiX users and/or advices.

Thanks, best regards,

--J.
