Hi
My application requires Word and .Net.
I am creating a wix bootstrap application to install .net if not not found.
The basic criteria i found is to search through registry entries. the
problem is both items may have many products, e.g. Word can have v11, v12,
v14. and .net can have 2.0, 3.5, 4.0, etc
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318785). So to resolve this I have to check
all possibilities.
Is there a *Simple *way to just find that word is installed and either of 64
or 32 bit. Or .net 2.0 or greater is installed?
I am doing this for Word
<util:RegistrySearch
Variable="WordVersion"
Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\InstallRoot"
Format='raw'
Value="Path"
Result="value" />
And this for .Net
<util:RegistrySearch
Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Net Framework Setup\NDP\v2.0.50727"
Value="Install"
Variable="Netfx2FullVersion" />
I also tried to search the version of mscoree.dll through FileSearch but it
seems like that it never executed.
<Property Id="MINFRAMEWORK">
<DirectorySearch
Id="MinFrameworkDir"
Depth="0"
Path="[SystemFolder]">
<FileSearch
Id="MinFrameworkFile"
MinVersion="6.1.4322"
Name="mscoree.dll" />
</DirectorySearch>
</Property>
