(I replied offline to a separate query but I'll repeat here in case anyone else is curious.)
The Inventory app is one of the DTF samples. It demonstrates how to use some of the classes in the DTF Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller namespace to query the state of installed products, features, components, files, and patches. If you download the WiX v3 source code you'll find it in the DTF\Samples directory. Note it may be a little rough around the edges because I haven't worked on it in many years, and I was only just learning WinForms at the time I wrote it. -Jason- -----Original Message----- From: Wilson, Phil [mailto:phil.wil...@wonderware.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 13, 2009 10:00 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] "MSI Inventory" Sample Application It doesn't seem to me that this will help you understand DTF. I believe this is a tool that uses the standard MSI APIs to list products, features and components installed on the system ("managed by MSI").

Where it can be found please? It would greatly help in understanding the Deployment Tools Foundation library. Thanks very much for the answer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
