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); } Mark Freedman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
