Hi, WiX community!
A question, the professional answer for I was unable to find through MSI and installer forums. 1) First part. I need to run an installation (*.msi file(s)) via .NET (C#) code. What is the best framework (if any exist) or maybe some wrapper classes (above MSI API) you could advise? Could DTF solve this task? I've found Installer class with lots of static methods that can run installation process along with patches. But I feel the lack of some examples inside DTF documentation. If I'm not mistaken it is mostly used inside custom actions (correct me if I'm wrong). 2) If DTF is what I need, then comes the second part of a question. How can I get some events firing about the installation process (for the progress bar) and the text messages with the current action (usually the description line below the progress bar). I know this is definitely could be done somehow. Of course I can use plain MSI API (wrap it with .NET), but maybe there's a .NET solution for this? Any advice would be valuable!
