Re: [WiX-users] ExeCommand custom action

[Shmarya Rubenstein]

It's a command-line argument...

Essentially, I added the cli argument in order to workaround the need for "Working Directory"...

After a little more investigation, it seems that a type 50 CA is what I need...

 <CustomAction Id='LaunchConfig' Directory ='INSTALLDIR' ExeCommand='[INSTALLDIR]$(var.projectname).exe' Return='asyncNoWait'/>

works great...

What does the exe do to the xml file?  WiX has custom actions which support modifying xml files during setup.  They support rollback and install nothing to the target machine.

Hi all,

I've got an ExeCommand custom action (like this):

<CustomAction Id="LaunchConfig" FileKey="$(var.projectname).exe" ExeCommand="&quot;[INSTALLDIR]$(var.projectname ).xml&quot;" Return="asyncNoWait"/>

How can I make it execute with a specific working directory?

Thanks,
