Our custom DLL runs as a deferred custom action since it modifies system files, etc.. The problem we're facing is that since our DLL does the heavy lifting of registering our files, it also knows when a reboot is required after the installation has completed. Since deferred custom actions cannot set properties that get picked up by e.g. <ScheduleReboot>, I'm a little puzzled as to how to communicate the reboot flag back to the installer. Does anyone have ideas or a recommended practice for doing something like this?
