Hello,

I have an installer project that will require a task to be scheduled in Windows. The task itself is one of the executables installed by the MSI (In future versions, this will be a Windows Service, but right now my hands are tied on this). If believe that if there's no existing task in WiX (v3) for this (is there?), I will have to write a C++ custom action (best practice) or resort to VBScript (evil?)

Has anybody done this before or is this functionality already available?
If I have to go hardcore and program this in C++, does anybody has any good hints on how to write a correct (considering rollback, uninstall, ...), maintainable and reliable custom action in C++?


Kind regards,

Wouter
