It should simplify your MBA.
Key points are:
DetectUpdateBegin, return Result.Ok if you want the engine to try to
parse the update feed (default is IDNOACTION which means do nothing).
DetectUpdate, return Result.Ok if it's an update (and call SetUpdate),
return Result.Cancel if it's not an update (and you want to abort the
processing of any other updates in the feed).
DetectUpdateComplete, if e.Status is an error, then you currently need
to call Detect again. In 4.x, I plan to modify DetectUpdateComplete to allow
for modification of the HRESULT. If you call detect again, you more than likely
won't want to return Result.Ok from DetectUpdateBegin. If your feed is down,
or the BA isn't on an internet connected PC then you will only get a
DetectUpdateBegin call followed by a DetectUpdateComplete call with a failed
e.Status.

Subject: Re: [WiX-devs] WiX v3.9.720.0 released
My testing indicates that the update behavior, in wix 3.9.720, (without
changing my mba implementation from what I modeled form wix37 source, and
customized) is what I would expect. As long as my feed uses as:version without
the leading "v" then the latest version posted to the web site is
detected and applied. When the dust settles I will look closely at the
WixBA changes and decide how to change my mba to take advantage of the other
changes to burn.
Thanks for everyone's help on these issues.
