I was talking about Wixfeat4190 github pull request #29 which was merged June 12th. That's after the release of 3.8.
My understanding was that with this change, the standard bootstrapper would check a feed for updates, and ask if it should download. It could be called periodically or on request from the application. I placed an XML file with the same format as described in https://wixextba.codeplex.com/discussions/435763 and placed the URL in WiX/Bundle/Update/Location. But I verified with wireshark, that my Bootstrapper doesn't fetch it. So, am I mistaken that the 3.9 Bootstrapper should fetch it without me having to provide a custom dll? What led me to believe it was no longer necessary was this conversation: https://www.mail-archive.com/wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg62199.html Rgds Richard Am Donnerstag, den 30.10.2014, 05:41 -0700 schrieb Phill Hogland: > The video provides information about the plan to release wix 3.9 on halloween > weekend (if there are no significant issues raised). > > I assumed you are talking about the work that Jacob did to implement the > download behavior, which has been in the wix source Setup\WixBA > UpdateViewModel, since at least 3.7, as behavior of Burn available for > WixStdBA users.
