As I step through the Wix 3.8.722 code I observe in:
src\ext\BalExtension\Wixstdba\WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.cpp
at line 916
"
LoadBootstrapperBAFunctions();
if (m_fPrereq)
{
hr = ParsePrerequisiteInformationFromXml(pixdManifest);
BalExitOnFailure(hr, "Failed to read prerequisite
information.");
}
else
{
hr = ParseBootrapperApplicationDataFromXml(pixdManifest);
BalExitOnFailure(hr, "Failed to read bootstrapper application
data.");
}
"
Prior to the call to LoadBootstrapperBAFunctions WinDbg shows m_fPrereq as
undefined. On entry to this function it is set to zero and when the
function returns control to the next line (the if statement) m_fPrereq is a
large positive number 1753485088 (but it is set to several other values as I
step through LoadBootstrapperBAFunctions. This is true even when there is
no BAFunctions.dll specified.
As a result the first part of the if statement is always executed and
ParseBootrappApplicationDataFromXML is always skipped.
1) Is this correct logic? It just seems wrong for a
WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.HyperlinkLargeLicense BA.
2) is ParseBootrappApplicationDataFromXML misspelled (missing the s)?
