Re: [WiX-users] Download files for install

2007-05-02 Thread Magus

I have just been informed that it needs to be interruptable and doesn't have
to restart downloading from the beginning.  We trying to figure out if this
is something out there that will do this. We have a 5gb files to download
and we need to know if there is something that will achieve this capability,
that doesn't require any extra work on my part due to time constraints.

Re: [WiX-users] Download files for install

2007-05-02 Thread Wilson, Phil
If I were downloading something from an IIS server with those restart
requirements I'd use BITS.  There are samples to download in the Windows
SDK samples folder \Web. 

More info here:

Re: [WiX-users] Download files for install

2007-05-02 Thread Matthew Janulewicz
We have an internal installer that ftp's content using a Win32 version
of wget, called by a custom action. It's a tiny bit ugly because it pops
up a command dialog, but as I said it is 100% internal, only run by two
CM guys, so we weren't concerned with aesthetics. It would be cool if we
could redirect the output to an installer text control. (Maybe we can,
but I couldn't figure out how.)

If I were in this situation, I'd look for a win32 version of rsync.
