Re: [WiX-users] Installer fails while reading the function from DLL
Hi, I checked in the Project->Properties->Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation - Runtime library is Multi-threaded(/MT) only. Is there anything else I should do in order to resolve this issue? The installer is working fine in windows xp and vista and the issue is only with windows server 2003. Thanks, Naresh Krishna Kumar.

Re: [WiX-users] How to read Version information from the Registry.
Hi,
I am trying to read the version of GPMC in the Registry which is 1.0.2. I
can check whether the GPMC is installed or not. But I want to read the
version data from the registry since my tool will run in other operating
systems and GPMC are in two different versions. Based on the version of
GPMC, I will be installing some files while running the .msi file.

[WiX-users] How to read Version information from the Registry.
Hi, I am trying to read the version information from the registry. I dont have any attributes in RegistrySearch element to read the version information of the installed application. Is there any workaround in WIX? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-read-Version-information-from-the-Registry.-tf4116581.html#a11706696 Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[WiX-users] Windows Installer - CustomAction DLL
Hi,
I am creating a Custom Action DLL using VC++. My Custom Action DLL source
code is given below:
#pragma comment(lib, "msi.lib")
#include "stdafx.h"
BOOL APIENTRY DllMain( HMODULE hModule,
DWORD ul_reason_for_call,
LPVOID lpReserved
)
{
return TRUE;
}
UINT MsiMessageBox(MSIHANDLE hInstall,TCHAR* pszMsg,DWORD dwOptions)
{
if( NULL==hInstall || NULL==pszMsg )
{
return -1;
}
PMSIHANDLE hRec = MsiCreateRecord(2);
MsiRecordSetString(hRec,0,pszMsg);
UINT uiRet =
MsiProcessMessage(hInstall,INSTALLMESSAGE(INSTALLMESSAGE_USER
|dwOptions),hRec);
return uiRet;
}
UINT __stdcall FirstAction(MSIHANDLE hInstall)
{
if(MsiMessageBox(hInstall, TEXT("Do you want to continue setup?"),
MB_OKCANCEL | MB_ICONEXCLAMATION) == IDOK)
{
ShellExecute
(NULL,_T("open"),_T("http://microsoft.com/downloads";),NULL,NULL,SW_SHOWNORMAL);
}
else
{
Exit the MSI.
}
return ERROR_SUCCESS;
}
The above code displays the message when installing the .msi file whether
the user want to download any prerequisite software needed for the .msi
file. If the user clicks Ok button, the code will take the user to the
download page. If the user clicks cancel button, the code should exit the
user from the msi installation. But the issue is even after clicking cancel
button, the welcome dialog page comes up. Is there any methods or properties
in Windows Installer which will exit the user from installing the .msi
application.
I have created a Binary element and Custom element and CustomAction element
in the .wxs file.
Thanks,
Naresh Krishna Kumar. K
