In an effort to learn the new functionality, I built the WPF sample found in
wix3-sources and tried to consume it in a product.
My WXS looks like this:
<Package InstallerVersion="405" Compressed="yes" />
<UIRef Id="WixUI_Mondo" />
<UI Id="Embedded">
<EmbeddedUI Id="WPF"
SourceFile="$(var.DTF_WPF.TargetDir$(var.DTF_WPF.TargetName).CA.dll"></EmbeddedUI>
</UI>
I have MSI 4.5 installed on Server 2008 and my logfile shows the following. If
I stream my dll out of MsiEmbeddedUI table and look at it in depends I can see
that it exports InitializeEmbeddedUI, EmbeddedUIHandler and ShutdownEmbedddUI
functions. If I put a message box inside of the initialize method I never see
my message.
Any thoughts?
