Use a feature condition. A feature condition is where a Condition element is placed inside a Feature element. There, it can change whether or not that feature gets installed depending on if the statements evaluates to true.
It does this by changing the Level of the Feature: <Feature Id="FeatureThatNeedsSQL" Title="My SQL Feature" Level="1"> <ComponentGroupRef Id="SQLComponents" /> <Condition Level="0"> </Condition> </Feature> If SQL_INSTALLED is false, the feature's Level will be changed to 0, which means it will be disabled and removed from the feature tree. This works for the UI, because it removes the feature from the feature tree. It also works for the command-line because it disables the feature. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Condition-problem-tp7598403p7598429.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
