Hi,
I tried to retrieve some information about installed Product, as bellow:
TCHAR szProductName[100] = {0};
DWORD length(0);
MsiGetProductInfoW(szProductCode,LInstalledProductName,szProductName,
length);
However, it always return ERROR_MORE_DATA. It sounds like that TCHAR
is
too small.
Try
DWORD length = sizeof(szProductName)/sizeof(TCHAR);
