Re: [WiX-users] Adding progressbar text on Add/Remove panel

I think the reason why you UI isn'T displayed as you expect is because in Add/Remove, msiexec is called using /k which uses basic interface. In Basic, the InstallUISequence is not used at all. I once saw a post about how InstallShield was doing it but it felt really like a bad workaround... Bas

Re: [WiX-users] checkbox issues

There is surely a better way to do it but if you need a way to do it fast, you could build a customAction do either lookup the registry itself or else set a value in the registry for both cases (installed and not installed) so that your custom action could drop the row if the not installed value

[WiX-users] Problem with condition based on custom property

Hi, I made a custom action that needs to run only if a checkbox was checked during UI or not at all if in quiet or minimal mode. To do this, I created my property, linked it to my checkbox and then configured my condition but it seems that no matter what I do, the action is always ran. Here are

Re: [WiX-users] Problem with condition based on custom property (Routhier Louis)

OK, please don't throw me rocks... When I tried to debug my custom action, I realised I reversed the condition (<> 1 instead of =1)... I hope this won't happen again as I feel so shameful :P Les renseignements contenus dans ce message peuvent être confidentiels. Si vous n'êtes pas le destinatai

Re: [WiX-users] Using a wixlib to populate msm content - Solution part 2

When I wrote my last message, I didn't try yet to use the wixlib in my msi's wxs definition. What I found is that you can't define in both the wixlib and your msi's wxs files. Instead, you have to use within your fragment and Directory inside your msi. This means that you also have to add a Dir

Re: [WiX-users] Using a wixlib to populate msm content - Solution

So finally, it seems I had almost solved my problem when I sent my message. What I did is create a ComponentGroup within my wixLib and then, using ComponentGroupRef, I referenced it in my merge module and since everything in my wixLib is in a single Fragment, everything (other than components) ge

[WiX-users] Using a wixlib to populate msm content

I'm trying to build a series of build items so that we can easily distribute our installation both internally and externally with maximum control available. This means that we want to build both a wixlib and an merge module depending on the targeted client. Before that, I only had the msm versi

[WiX-users] Conditions with util:XMLConfig

When using XMLConfig from UtilExtension, a SchedXmlConfig entry is created in the InstallExecuteSequence table with condition set to VersionNT > 400. Is there any way of specifying additional conditions? I would need a way to allow users to select if they want to remove the config or not since i

[WiX-users] Integrating HxC / HxS inside the VS common help library

Hi, I'm trying to include documentation made with SandCastle within the global VS 2005 and VS 2008 namespaces but I think there is something I'm not doing right. Actually, I'm trying to use the VSExtension dll which seems to partly work for what I want to do. From what I see, at the moment, my na
