[WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch “Registry key not found” when using variable inside Win64=“$(var.Win64)”

2014-03-21 Thread dirt
util:RegistrySearch does not find registry keys when using a variable for
yes/no for example: Win64=$(var.Win64).

It works as expected if I use the string yes/no instead of the variable for
example: Win64=yes.

The var.Win64 is set to yes/no via a build script which prompts us for which
OS to build for. The logs show it is being set to yes properly before
DetectBegin.

Full question with code/logs:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22559113/utilregistrysearch-registry-key-not-found-when-using-variable-inside-win64

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
-dirt

Re: [WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch “Registry key not found” when using variable inside Win64=“$(var.Win64)”

2014-03-21 Thread John Cooper
I do not use the Result attribute, but other than that I do use 
Win64=$(var.Win64) for two util:RegistrySearch elements.  One returns an 
Install Location, and one returns and integer.  Both work fine.

The installer/bootstrapper is re-compiled each time depending on whether it is 
x64 or x86.

Interesting, I was able to get it to work by simply removing the Win64
attribute altogether. I swear I tried this before and it didn't work... 
Just needed a nights sleep I guess.

2014-03-21 Thread Phill Hogland
I also stopped using Win64, but you need to make sure that the -arch flag is
being passed on the command line to candle and light.  One way to do this is
to add the InstallerPlatform MSBuild Property to your project file.  You can
unload your project file, and edit it, adding the following statements as
needed.

  PropertyGroup Condition= '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|x64'

   ..
 InstallerPlatformx64/InstallerPlatform
 /PropertyGroup

  PropertyGroup Condition= '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|x86'

   ..
 InstallerPlatformx86/InstallerPlatform
 /PropertyGroup

Then you can observe that -arch will now be passed to the tools, and you do
not need to use the Win64 flag in most situations.

I have also observed that when I use a preprocessor string $(var.SomeValue)
in attributes like Package/@InstallerVersion or Package/@Platform Visual
Studio displays the warning that you posted on the other site, but it seems
to not matter, so I ignore it.

Good point.  In my case, the -arch switch is always being correctly set.  That 
may make a significant difference.

[WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch default value if not found

2012-12-15 Thread up2date.cyb...@gmail.com
Hi, in a bundle, using util:RegistrySearch, is there a way to set a 
default value to a variable?
What I have now:
util:RegistrySearch Variable=MYVAR Root=HKLM 
Key=$(var.RegistryKey) Value=MyValue Result=value /
I want to pass the value to a MSI package with:
MsiProperty Name=MYMSIVAR Value=[MYVAR] /

If the registry value is not found, the command line of the msi is 
MYMSIVAR=, so I'd like to:
-define a default value if registry value doesn't exist
OR
-don't set the MsiProperty if the registry value doesn't exist

Can someone help me? or tell me another way
thanks

Re: [WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch default value

2012-10-30 Thread Neil Sleightholm
It doesn't seem to work, it undefines the variable if the registry value 
doesn't exist.

So this is what I am trying:
Variable Name=Test Type=numeric Value=1 Persisted=yes 
bal:Overridable=yes /
util:RegistrySearch Root=HKLM Key=SOFTWARE\ACME Value=Test 
Variable=Test /

It I run the bundle and look in the log I see this:
[2080:1F4C][2012-10-30T14:49:33]: Initializing numeric variable 'Test' to value 
'1'

But if the registry value doesn't exist at the end of the log file where the 
variables are listed Test is missing.

As a workaround I am having to do this:
Variable Name=Test Type=numeric Value=1 Persisted=yes 
bal:Overridable=yes /
util:RegistrySearch Root=HKLM Key=SOFTWARE\ACME Value=Test 
Result=exists Variable=TestSearch /
util:RegistrySearch Root=HKLM Key=SOFTWARE\ACME Value=Test 
Variable=Test Condition=TestSearch /

Is this a bug?

I don't know that it is a bug (it's a reasonable behavior)... but the
ability to have a default value is certainly a reasonable feature request.

Re: [WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch

2012-10-26 Thread Georg von Kries
Hi Neil!

There is no need for the Util extension in an MSI for a registry search.
Just use the normal RegistrySearch element (from the Wix schema) which
populates MSIs RegLocator table. Because of this I think it is burn
specific.

Regards,
Georg von Kries

Re: [WiX-users] util:RegistrySearch

There is one very good reason to use it in an MSI, you can read dword values 
without the # on it.

Hi Neil!

There is no need for the Util extension in an MSI for a registry search.
Just use the normal RegistrySearch element (from the Wix schema) which 
populates MSIs RegLocator table. Because of this I think it is burn specific.

Regards,
Georg von Kries

Can the util:RegistrySearch be used in an MSI or is it burn specific?

Seems to be Burn specific and sets a Burn variable while the other
RegistrySearch that's not in the UtilExtension sets a Property.

The RegistrySearch in the Util extension is only supported in Bundles today.

 Hi:
 Is it possible to have the util:RegistrySearch elements evaluated before
 the AppSearch custom action.
 I've got conditions in the appsearch that only need to be evaluated if
 cartain registry keys determined by the Util:RegistrySearch exist.
 Cheers
