Assume you talk about difx drivers. Afaik not possible as there exists no hybrid difX assemblies. One MSI only can contain x86 or x64 difX assemblies. Think here in the list exist some discussions regarding implementing difX drivers for that scenario. Regards Tobias

Hi all, I am adding Launch conditions to my installer made with wix 3.6. However, I am fighting with the PhysicalMemory property which actually reports the ram usable and not the installed ram on a 32-bit Windows 7. Do you have any other property in mind that could work around this issue ?

It's probably cause I'm posting via the forums directly, and not using email. And the only way to post code without it looking silly is to do raw text. The reason I'm not using Wca wrappers is that I was told I had to work with what I've got. I can't install any other frameworks or anything

Re: [WiX-users] Custom Action to verify input

2011-11-23 Thread Hoover, Jacob
But the Wca wrappers come with WiX. Since you are using WiX for the UI, I assume your CA build machine would have WiX installed. Worse case, you could download the WiX source and include the lib source directly in your project (I don't think there would be any licensing issues there).

You should condition the CA based upon the installation state of the component containing your EXE. Check http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa368012%28v=vs.85%29.aspx MSDN for full details but let's say your component id is componentA...then the condition on your CA would
