No. By design no. The Bundle makes a lot of security guarantees and does not 
use external files to define the chain.

A custom BA could use external data (like a .config file) to decide what 
packages to install from a chain, but the chain definition is built into the 
Bundle.

Subject: [WiX-users] Bootstrapper config file/Answer file

Hi all,

I have been looking everywhere to find the answer to this question. Does WIX 
Bootstrapper support the use of an xml config file or answer file to obtain the 
chain of packages to install? I have seen bootstrapper.confg files and some 
other information but I feel like I am going down rabbit holes. I would just 
like to have a single setup.exe file that can utilize a managed configuration 
file so that the bootstrapper doesn't have to be recompiled when there are 
version updates. Is it possible?

Thank you,

J
