I'm using the following code (Sample code I found, not originally
written by me) which I haven't had any problems with. According to
msi.chm PMSIHANDLE objects are automatically closed as they go out of
scope, which doesn't happen for MSIHANDLE -- if you're using
MSIHANDLE you're required to close it using MsiCloseHandle, could your
bug be related to this??
Sample code:
#define _USE_RTM_VERSION
void LogString(MSIHANDLE hInstall, TCHAR* szString)
{
PMSIHANDLE newHandle = ::MsiCreateRecord(2);
TCHAR szTemp[MAX_PATH * 2];
sprintf_s(szTemp, MAX_PATH * 2, "-- MSI_LOGGING -- %s", szString);
MsiRecordSetString(newHandle, 0, szTemp);
MsiProcessMessage(hInstall, INSTALLMESSAGE(INSTALLMESSAGE_INFO),
newHandle);
}
Cheers,
Sascha
