That data is very squirrely. It depends whether you're getting straight MSI or MSI interpreted Restart Manager callbacks. It's basically described in the MSI SDK how the different messages send back different data... although, IIRC, the documentation isn't terribly clear. Anyway, the data is whatever MSI provides us.

Subject: [WiX-users] ExecuteFilesInUseEventArgs Question Hey everybody, I'm working on a custom managed bootstrapper application for my bundle and I'm adding support for the ExecuteFilesInUse event. While doing some testing I noticed that the Files property does not actually return a list of files that are locked, but rather alternates between process ID and process name, so for example it would look like this if e is the ExecuteFilesInUseEventArgs object: e.Files[0] = "3676" e.Files[1] = "Notepad" e.Files[2] = "144" e.Files[3] = "MyApp" Actually the second entry might be the process description, not the name? This behavior doesn't seem to be documented anywhere, but the way the collection is populated makes a lot more sense, because I don't actually care which files are locked but instead which process I need to send a shutdown signal to. So I'm fine with the data I'm getting, but I would like to get some information that it will always behave this way before I start relying on it. I also implemented a dialog modeled after the standard MsiRMFilesInUse dialog which lets the user pick either Retry, Auto-close (via RestartManager), or Don't close, but haven't tested all scenarios yet to see if the return codes I'm sending back to the engine are doing the right thing. // Sascha ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
