This is the second time I have run into this scenario and I thought it was a good point to stop and share. A couple months back I was asked to integrate the functionality of the "Print" button (PrintEula Custom Action) into a product that did not use the cookie cutter dialogs provided by the toolset. This, itself, is quite the easy task. There was an addition to the scope, "…we would like to print a second dialog as well."
What other thing do you need to print? I'm not sure this is a common enough scenario to warrant requiring another property in the .msi.
hr = WcaGetProperty(L"WIXUI_INSTALLDIR", &pwszWixUIDir);In this scenario, I have been asked to provide a "nearly" identical dialog as the InstallDirDlg. The difference being that a second location for folder selection is going to be added. I know that I can add a new property and use it as it was used in the version I am migrating to at the moment. However, I would like to gain the functionality that WIX provides with this new custom action.
WIXUI_INSTALLDIR is already an indirect property; its value is the name of another property/directory, so you can reuse it.
