I need to launch some .net code during installation. Which possibilities do
I have? As I hear there are problems with .net custom actions in Windows
Installer.
So I cant add my .net assembly exe into the product as file or binary stream
and use one of the custom actions types to launch it?

You can run dot net code during installation, although there are some reason
why you should not. I have been executing .net code in my installation for
quite a while now
Anyways here how to do it :
Include the following
Binary Id=InstallUtil SourceFile=$(env.windir

Igor,

shouldn't do it, although it is technically possible using an undocumented DLL.

I am new to WiX and am having a problem displaying a message box to
the user from a CA in a C++ DLL. I have an MSI dialog that asks the
user to enter their serial number and calls my CA when the user
presses Next (Execute=immediate). The CA is getting called and I
can retrieve the serial number

Ok, I took that out, but I get the same result...no UI. I've been trying
different things (including not having an InstallUISequence at all) the past

Standard advice: Generate a verbose log; MSI records the actions and
dialogs it

so my question is, is the difxapp extension just not ready yet or am i
doing something wrong? the final msi worked as it should.
Correct -- DifxApp itself doesn't ship with WiX v3. There's an open bug
right now that WiX v3 can't consume the WiX v2 Difx .wixlib.

Also, if the CA is an EXE instead of a DLL-type CA or something, then you
can launch it with an EXE CA.

Hi
First time posting to a mailinglist so bare with me if I screw something up.
I've been trying with WIX 2.0 to incorporate MSM modules into our
installerpackage conditionally but alas to no use (I'm having a hard time
finding any examples or anything on it).
I'm trying to get the speech SDK
well, technically it isn't really a bug if the v2 difxapp.wixlib has
different elements and schema references than it should in v3. it is really
just not an ap to date wixlib. unless what you are saying is that the
WixDifxAppExtension.dll contains the v2 wixlib and that is why i need to
Hi,
I am trying to run the following command through an custom action in WiX.
CScript %MYDIR%\Install.vbs //NoLogo %REGROOT% %CODEBASE% %DEVENVDIR%
%ROOTSUFFIX%
This one basically executes an VB Script file which is taking some set of input
parameters.
Can't we run the VB Script in this way?
I was about to say the same thing. It's not all managed code custom actions
that are evil, it's really just the installer class mechanism that requires
the shim Dll, loading a framework into msiexec etc etc. Functionally, a
managed code exe has the same capability as an installer class

Hello,
I'm in the process of converting our merge modules from Install Shield
to Wix. Ideally, I'd like convert the main installations to Wix as well
and just use fragments but time does not permit this.
I'm running into the following issue:
Install Shield merge modules do not append
The ServiceInstall method installs the service and is used instead of
installer classes. So the question how should the installer handle
this is a bit of a non-sequitur because you don't need installer
classes if you're using ServiceInstall. Of course if your installer
class code does something
I would use the WiX ServiceInstall. It's easier and more reliable
than trying to call the Installer class. You can leave the Installer
based class in the code if you want.
