I have an MSI that does nothing but launch an application and exit. The main
reason why I had to use an MSI is because the application I'm launching has
a pre-requisite and MSI provided me a way of bootstrapping the
pre-requisite. Anyhow, my design involves a custom dialog with a Finish
button that will launch the selected application and exit the entire
installation process without displaying anymore dialog windows. The
launching of the selected app works fine, but the process of exiting the MSI
is quirky. My custom dialog will close for a few seconds then it will pop up
again. I tried experimenting with WixExitEarlyWithSuccess but to no avail. I
have a snippet of my code below, I'll appreciate it very much if someone can
have a look and let me know what I'm doing wrong.
<Publish Dialog="MyCustomDialog" Control="Finish" Event="DoAction"
Value="LaunchMyApp1">APP_TYPE = "MYAPP1"</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="MyCustomDialog" Control="Finish" Event="DoAction" Value="
LaunchMyApp2">APP_TYPE = "MYAPP2"</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="MyCustomDialog" Control="Finish" Event="DoAction" Value="
LaunchMyApp3">APP_TYPE = "MYAPP3"</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="MyCustomDialog" Control="Finish" Event="EndDialog"
Value="Return" Order="999" >1</Publish>
<InstallUISequence>
<Show Dialog="MyCustomDialog" OnExit="success" />
</InstallUISequence>
