Only deferred custom actions use the CustomActionData class. Immeadiate
Custom Actions can access properties directly:
var installLocation = session[INSTALLLOCATION];
Here is what I consider `required` reading on the subject:

Subject: [WiX-users] help: Parameters are not passing to custom actions
when push button clicked?
Hi every one,
Aim trying to execute c# custom actions but problem is parameters are not
passing to code. Here my code
Binary Id=myAction SourceFile=MyCustomAction1.CA.dll /
CustomAction Id=SetCustomActionDataValue Return=check
Property=myActionId
Value=INSTALLLOCATION=[ProductName];AnotherValue='Just a value' /
CustomAction Id=myActionId BinaryKey=myAction
DllEntry=MySimpleAction
Return=ignore Execute=immediate /
InstallExecuteSequence
Custom Action=SetCustomActionDataValue Before=myActionId NOT
Installed/Custom
Custom Action=myActionId Before=InstallFinalizeNOT
Installed/Custom
/InstallExecuteSequence
Form UI iam calling the custom action code
Here the code
Control Id=btnCheckConnection Type=PushButton Height=17 Width=56
X=304 Y=213 Text=Test
Publish Event='DoAction' Value='myActionId' Order=1 1/Publish
/Control
My C#code
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult MySimpleAction(Session session)
{
try
{
session.Message(InstallMessage.Warning,
new Record(new string[]
{
string.Format(INSTALLLOCATION{0},
session.CustomActionData[INSTALLLOCATION])
}));
session.Message(InstallMessage.Warning,
new Record(new string[]
{
string.Format(Another Value{0},
session.CustomActionData[AnotherValue])
}));
//MessageBox.Show(Pid);
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
session.Log(exception.ToString());
return ActionResult.Failure;
}
finally
{
}
return ActionResult.Success;
}
Any wrong that code?
Thanks
Pallapothu
