Did a sourceforge bug get created from the below email? If so, can you point me to it so I can monitor it's status? If not, can one be generated?
Or -- is there already a way to determine if the user allowed the elevated permissions when calling Elevate directly? In my case, I'm performing custom prerequisite checks that require elevated security before I show the user what features are available to install and want to just exit the installer if the user denies the elevated permissions. I'm doing this in my own UI using the ManagedBootstrapperApplication. Thanks ~John *Re: [WiX-users] Managed bootstrapper; BootstrapperApplication.Engine.Elevate()* From: Rob Mensching <rob@ro...> - 2012-01-01 20:35 That looks like a bug. There needs to be callbacks on the elevate call because all "action" (Detect, Plan, Elevate, Apply) calls are async. Additionally, there should be callbacks when elevation happens durin Apply. Note: You don't need to explicitly call Elevate() because it will happen if necessary during Apply().
