Regarding using BAFunctions.dll for DelayStart, it has been about a year since I used that feature and then abandoned that code in favor of creating a WPF managed BA (which I would also recommend, but you could use any UX framework - MFC, WCF, Java?<smile/>). But as I recall the basic steps are: 1) Define an overridable variable in you Bundle named DelayStart (or whatever you choose). From: https://wixextba.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest#Examples/Bundle11.wxs <Variable Name="DelayStart" Type="numeric" Value="1000" />
2) Create a C++ dll project named bafunctions and add the files from src\burn\Samples\bafunctions to your project. Get this new project to compile before making changes to it. 3) For the bafunctions.dll produced by the above project, add it as a payload to your bundle. See example here: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Fwd-Updating-a-msi-installed-by-bootstrapper-td7585953.html 4) Add the following code from the example here: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=reply&node=7597747 Add it to your WixBootstrapperBAFunction.cpp file, the project you created. HRESULT Delay() { HRESULT hr = S_OK; LONGLONG llDelay = 0; BalGetNumericVariable(L"DelayStart", &llDelay); if (llDelay) { BalLog(BOOTSTRAPPER_LOG_LEVEL_STANDARD, "Delay for %dms", (DWORD)llDelay); ::Sleep((DWORD)llDelay); } return hr; } public: STDMETHODIMP OnDetect() { HRESULT hr = S_OK; HKEY hkKey = NULL; LPWSTR sczValue = NULL; LPWSTR sczFormatedValue = NULL; DebugBreak( ); BalLog(BOOTSTRAPPER_LOG_LEVEL_STANDARD, "Running detect BA function"); //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Delay start to show splashscreen handling Delay(); //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LExit: ReleaseRegKey(hkKey); ReleaseStr(sczValue); ReleaseStr(sczFormatedValue); return hr; } I added a DebugBreak so that you can compile the setup and setup into the code. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/How-to-suppress-the-StdBA-Bootstrapper-UI-tp7597705p7597753.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
