I'm looking to make a wix installer for a service that will be dependent on sql 
server. The name of the SQL Server service is dependent on the name of the SQL 
instance and other things. In a windows depoloyment project, I'm scanning the 
list of services that start with MSSQL$ and setting them as a dependency. How 
does this translate to WiX? I'd prefer to do it in an automated way if 
possible. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.


            ServiceController[] services = ServiceController.GetServices();

            var dependentServices = new List<string>();
            foreach (ServiceController service in services.Where(x => 
x.ServiceName.StartsWith("MSSQL$")))
            {
                dependentServices.Add(service.ServiceName);
            }
