Classification: Public
I have written a custom action C# DLL
The custom action is called within the product.wxs:
<CustomAction Id="CA_SetCHECKFORMSMQ" Property="CA_CHECKFORMSMQ"
Value="$(var.ProductName)"/>
<CustomAction Id="CA_CHECKFORMSMQ" BinaryKey="BIN_CustomAction"
DllEntry="CheckToSeeIfMSMQIsInstalled" Impersonate="no" Execute="deferred"
Return="check"/>
<UI>
<ProgressText Action="CA_CHECKFORMSMQ">CA: Checking for Microsoft Message
Queuing Service (MSMQ)...</ProgressText>
</UI>
<Custom Action="CA_SetCHECKFORMSMQ" After="CostFinalize">NOT Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="CA_CHECKFORMSMQ" After="InstallInitialize">NOT
Installed</Custom>

Thank you for your reply.
I am a bit new to Wix, as this is the first time I'm making an installer, where
exactly do you write that code? I presume it's not straight into the xml, but
so far I only have written XML...
Best regards,
José
