Thanks Libin, but I require gtksharp-2.12. I don't know if i'm missing something but I only see a msi installer available.
I was told that one should not(or cannot) launch more than one msi at the same time? even if this is possible, what WIX action can one use to launch a msi? I looked at the post http://go-mono.com/forums/#nabble-td16301589 where Brad refers to some wix merge modules that will be made available about a year ago. Does anyone know if this realized? if so, where can I get them? libin-3 wrote: > > Add the following part in the "components" section of your product.wxs > file > for GTK setup installation. > > <File Id="GTKSETUP" Source="../Pre-Requisites/To Run > Application/W2K3/x86_x64/gtksharp-2.8.3-win32-0.0.exe" > Checksum="yes" Hidden="yes"/> > > Add this custom action inside "InstallExecuteSequence". > > <Custom Action="InstallGtk" Before="InstallFinalize"> > <![CDATA[NOT REMOVE AND NOT GTKINSTALLED]]> > </Custom> > > The following is the custom action which should be added to wxs file. > > <CustomAction Id="InstallGtk" FileKey="GTKSETUP" ExeCommand="/silent" > Execute="deferred" Impersonate="no" > Return="ignore"/> > > The following is the property which should be added to wxs file for > checking > the registry whether GTK# is installed or not. > > <Property Id="GTKINSTALLED"> > <RegistrySearch Id="gtksearch" Key="SOFTWARE\Novell\Gtk-Sharp\2.8.3" > Name="SdkInstallRoot" Root="HKLM" Type="raw"></RegistrySearch> > </Property> > > Hope this helps.. > > Regards, > Libin > -----Original Message----- > From: gtk-sharp-list-boun...@lists.ximian.com > [mailto:gtk-sharp-list-boun...@lists.ximian.com] On Behalf Of dabatla > Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2009 1:57 PM > To: gtk-sharp-list@lists.ximian.com > Subject: [Gtk-sharp-list] Advice on Gtk# and WIX > > > Hi there, I want to create a wix installer for my Gtk# windows application > and I would like to be able to inform the user when Gtk# is not installed > on > his/her computer yet, or if it needs to be upgraded. > > Then I would like to fire up the Gtk# installer (included with my > installer) > if it needs to be upgraded or installed. > > Does anyone know of existing WIX libraries/tools/tasks that I might be > able > to use?
