Hi, I'm new to using Wix and I'm having some problems trying to control a
Next button I have. I took WixUI_Mondo.wxs and renamed it as well as
modified it to include a dialog for checking a database connection. Below is
a snippet of my modified WixUI_Mondo.wxs:
<Publish Dialog="CheckDbConnectionDlg" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value=VerifyReadyDlg">1</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="CheckDbConnectionDlg" Control="Back" Event="NewDialog"
Value=WelcomeDlg">2</Publish>
Now within my CheckDbConnectionDlg.wxs I have a Next button that I'm trying
to control it's Enabled state via a property I set within a CustomAction.
Below is a snippet of my CheckDbConnectionDlg.wxs with the Next button I'm
trying to control.
<Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17"
Text="Next">
<Condition Action="disable">
<![CDATA[CONTINUE <> "True]]>
</Condition>
<Condition Action="enable">
CONTINUE ="True"
</Condition>
</Control>
Here is my custom action where I'm setting the property:
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult TestSqlConnection(Session testSession)
{
...
...
...
//If the connection is successful
testSession["CONTINUE"] = "True";
// Else set the session to False
testSession["CONTINUE"] = "False";
}
And my Product.wxs
<UIRef Id="WixUI_CustomUI" />
<Binary Id="SqlCustomAction" SourceFile="SqlCustomAction.CA.dll" />
<CustomAction Id=CA_testSqlConnection" BinaryKey="SqlCustomAction"
DllEntry="TestSqlConnection" Execute="immediate" Return="check" />
<InstallUISequence>
<Custom Action="CA_testSqlConnection" After="ExecuteAction" />
</InstallUISequence>
What happens is that when I get to the CheckDbConnectionDlg the Next button
is disabled as I want it to be, on that dialog I have a button that tests a
connection to a database and if it's good, I want the Next button to be
enabled so installation can proceed; otherwise, I want it to stay disabled.
If the connection succeeds it's not enabling the Next button, but it does if
I click Back and then Next.
Can someone tell me how to correct this?
