I fail to see how this would be useful, but I don't think there is anything
today in place. The reason I question why you would do it is the condition
would end up being a constant expression (either always being true or always
being false). To me it seems like you'd want a BA with custom code for
detecting/prompting for a camera type, and from there property drive which
satellite MSI's to install. I could also envision a user having more than one
camera so they may need a UI with check boxes or a checked list box to select
the possible cameras.
What you can do is pass property values to a MSI from the Bundle via
<MsiPackage...>
<MsiProperty Name="CAMERATYPE" Value="Basler" />
</MsiPackage>
That being said, you could create your own extensions to do this but I still
fail at seeing how it could be useful.

Subject: [WiX-users] Bootstrapper question
Does anyone know if a Bundle/Chain can access a public property from a bundled
msi?
In the following example the CAMERATYPE property is set in Genius.msi ...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
<Bundle Name="Genius"
Version="1.0.0"
UpgradeCode="8feba949-46b1-4b33-9834-879478aaea32"
DisableModify="yes">
<BootstrapperApplicationRef
Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.HyperlinkLicense" />
<WixVariable Id="WixStdbaLicenseUrl" Value="" />
<Chain>
<MsiPackage SourceFile="Genius.msi" />
<MsiPackage SourceFile="Basler.msi" InstallCondition="CAMERATYPE =
"Basler"" />
</Chain>
</Bundle>
</Wix>
Thanks!
