I added the following property assignment using ComponentSearch and prerequisite check and the property assignement isn't happening in case where prerequisite msi is known to be installed and known to have product id guid value specified in componentSearch. Am I misinterpreting the use of ComponentSearch to detect whether or not someother msi owned product is installed on a target host?
<Property Id="MYPREREQUISITEMSITHATMUSTBEINSTALLED" Secure="yes"> <ComponentSearch Id="MyPrerequesiteMsiThatMustBeInstalledSearch" Guid="<product id guid value of my prerequisite msi that must be installed " /> </Property> <Condition Message="[ProductName] requires <my prerequisite msi that must be installed name> to be installed."> Installed Or MYPREREQUISITEMSITHATMUSTBEINSTALLED </Condition> -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2008 2:36 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.
