True. My CA uses fondue.exe if possible on Windows 8 and drop back to dism.exe on win 7. I don't support Vista any more. On some versions of Win Srv the command is different than on later win srv IIRC. On Win 8 or later if the netfx3 package is missing from the OS image it must be obtained from the web (or an iso image). dism fails in this situation whereas if web connection exists fondue.exe downloads the package. The fondue package name and command line, is different than dism.exe. True, a mess!
I also tried to use the DISM API as others here suggested when I struggling with this issue. DISMAPI is a part of Windows 8 or later, but is not redistributable to earlier OS, except each end user could download a larger SDK and get it that why. An app written to DISMAPI must run against that specific version of the DISMAPI dll. At least those were the issues a few months back when I was working on this issue. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Wix-3-x-Include-NET-3-5-in-WixNetFX-extension-Bug-4584-tp7598071p7598074.html Sent from the wix-devs mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
