[WiX-users] Product Version functions

2013-07-22 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi,
I'm just in the process of writing a custom action, I know file version 
functions are in fileutil.cpp/h. Are Product version functions surfaced by WiX 
dutil?

Sean.

Hi,
What I need to do is get the product version (major/minor/build/release from a 
file during a custom action.
I could write this, but wondered whether this is already included.
Cheers

Hi,
I'll have to use FileVersionInfo.ProductVersion.
FileVersion functions are available but it seems product version functions 
aren't--maybe I'll submit a patch!

If you're referring to file versions, I wouldn't be surprised if it's not

[WiX-users] queries regarding update deployment

2013-10-05 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi,

I'm just in the process of breaking out an installer in to multiple smaller 
installers.
I'd also like to have an auto-updating capability.
If I break components of the application in to their own installers and wrap 
them in an executable (bundle) can I then update the individual msi files? Or 
does the original bundle have to be updated every time?
Any help/advice accepted gratefully.

Sean.

Hi,

You can update the individual msi files using minor updates (MSP). This does
not have impact on the bundles uninstall/repair behavior.
For major updates you should update the bundle. (Although it is possible to
do a major update on the MSI directly) If you perform an major update on a
msi,  the dependencies of original bundle will not recognize this and the
updated MSI gets not uninstalled during bundle uninstall.

Markus

[WiX-users] best way to handle su8pporting files

2014-01-19 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi All,
I'm in a situation where I'm doing some work for a client integrating some 
software we have written in to a piece of software they use.
They haven't paid for the source, so leaving this behind is not an option.
What I need to do is to copy the source file to the target machine, compile 
this file and then remove the source file leaving the compiled binary.
Given that RemoveFiles comes before InstallFiles in the InstallExecute sequence 
what is the best way of doing this?
Is there a mechanism for some form of support files in windows installer that 
are copied to the users machine but not actually installed?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers
Sean.

Why can't you just compile the source code beforehand and place the binary in 
the installer?  It's because of the integration; you are compiling both 
together?  Usually you can compile your software into an intermediate library 
that the user can use and compile with their software.  Any change on doing 
that?

Hi Phil,

The compile is done at install time--after the file is copied by executing a

Is there any documentation regarding giving the component a null guid, what 
exactly does this do or perhaps not do maybe the right question to ask?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] best way to handle su8pporting files

You can put the file in the Binary table (maybe encrypted)  and stream
it out yourself, decrypting it. Or you can install it (encrypted) but
give the component a null guid so that it is not registered, and can
therefore be removed with a custom action or some other method after
its been used. Without knowing when you're doing that compile (at
install time? Some indeterminate time after it?) it's tricky to
recommend anything specific.

You won't be able to make the file secure because (as far as I know)
the compiler probably can't read encrypted files, so it would have to
be plain text for a brief time even if you shipped it encrypted and
decrypted it for the compile process. There is no way to hide it in
the MSI file because they are very transparent, but you could encrypt
it so it couldn't easily be deciphered using something like Orca.

[WiX-users] searching for a registry key without worrying about any values

2014-01-24 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi all,

I'm in the process of refactoring an installer I wrote a while ago.
I've got a situation where I need to check that a registry key exists (I'm not 
worried about any of the values). What is the best way of doing this and 
assigning it to a property? I thought about setting the property to an initial 
value say "test", and as the default value is an empty string I could check to 
see whether the string is empty and hence the property has been set. Or, Will 
the Util extension help here? How can I set a variable value to a property?
I'm currently using a custom action to do this using RegOpenKey internally.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers
Sean.

Re: [WiX-users] Uninstall Previous Inno Setup Installed App

2011-03-10 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi: 
On a 32-bit version of windows, your key would look like:
"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{413B7644-1F93-4890-BD40-AC540C29935B}_is1"
I don't tend to use SilentUninstallString in these situations as this stil 
shows user interface--at least the cancel button if I remember correctly and it 
may even give the user the option to uninstall! I'd rather use 
"QuietUninstallString" as this shows nothing.
To get these two custom actions to work you need to search the registry based 
on a condition--I'd use VERSIONNT64/VERSIONNT.
Then have two custom actions in your InstallExecute sequence, one that executes 
if your running 32-bit windows and the other if your running 64-bit.
Looking at the old code I ran the uninstall just before InstallFiles.

If you need any further help let me know but hopefully this should be enough to 
get you going!
Cheers
Sean.

Subject: [WiX-users] Uninstall Previous Inno Setup Installed App

Hi All,

I've just rewritten my installer using WiX 3.5.  However, before I 
distribute the new MSI I'm dotting all the i and crossing the t's this 
time!  The problem is that I need to make sure the previous .exe setup 
is removed before installing the new msi version.

So, i've been looking at various ways to locate the unins000.exe file 
(UninstallString) and execute it.  If possible I'd like to search the 
registry and use the info in there but I can't think of a way to use the 
 element and be sure it's found, if there.

When I look at my dev machine registry the key would look like this:

"SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{413B7644-1F93-4890-BD40-AC540C29935B}_is1"

How would this work on a 32bit XP machine for instance?  What key value 
can I possibly use to catch all flavours of OS?  I've seen the Win64 
property but I can only find my keys in one place on my dev machine so 
if I said no to this it wouldn't find it on my dev box ... confused!

All the script I have for this at the moment is:












Any pointers on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jammer

[WiX-users] patching using burn

2011-03-26 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi:
I'm currently writing a bundle using burn. Later on we will need to write and 
release patches.
As I am using burn, can I use plain .msp/msu files or do I have to use a .exe 
file?
Any help appreciated.

[WiX-users] Password protecting an installation, and expiring an installation using burn

2011-04-05 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi:
I'm working with a client who needs to do the following.
Firstly password protect there installations before the msi is run and ideally 
at the earliest possible stage, i.e before anything is extracted).
And secondly, have the installation expire after a date they define-unique to 
each installation.
Two questions:
Are these currently possible in burn?
And secondly if not what parts of burn do I need to look at 
extending/customizing?
Any help appreciated.

[WiX-users] performing an action after the finish buton has been pressed

Hi: 

Within an installation I'm currently writing, I have a checkbox that sets
a property on one of the dialogues. This property control whether registry
values are written. I probably though msi best practices is to add the
registry entries to a component, and base them on a property, i.e the
property set by the checkbox.

This however does not help in this implementation. I'd like the registry
entries to be written after the finish button has been pressed and all
dialogues have been shown.

Can anyone suggest how to do this?

[WiX-users] Burn Query

Hi: 

I know burn is not quite functional as yet, but I know I will have a
requirement to do two things:

1.  Determine whether the executable is running on either a 32-bit or
64-bit system.

2.  Run a specific msi/install a set of prerequisites.

Is burn capable of doing this, and if so what needs modification, the user
experience, or the burn main stub. Also is there an easy way of determine
whether the executable is running on either a 32-bit or a 64-bit system.

Any help appreciated.

You can use conditions in the custom action based on this:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa368012(v=vs.85).as
px

Scrool down to feature and component state, and this:

gives examples.

Hi:
I need to run a custom action when, and only when a component/feature is

Is this possible, or do I need a compiler extension.
Any help appreciated.

[WiX-users] ice30 in a per-user installer

2013-03-07 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi all,
I'm currently putting together a per-user installer that installs somewhere in 
the users appdata folder.
I have the following 2 properties defined and referenced:

  

  

  

  
  

  

  

  


  

  

  
  

  

  

My components for two features that install the same file from source look as

Given that I've referenced properties, could someone please explain why I'm 
getting an ice30, as the documentationseems to inher that I shouldn't be.
I know I could use the  element to get round this, is there any other 
way if I don't want an extra copy on the system?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] ice30 in a per-user installer

The issue is that the two directories below actually resolve to TARGETDIR in 
the directory table, because if you don't specify a Name attribute, then it's 
essentially the same path as the parent directory.


 
 
   
 
   
 
 
   
 
 
   

Yes, you're trying to modify the actual paths while your install executes with 
AppSearch, but the problem is that the ICE doesn't take AppSearch into account. 
 There's good (and bad) reasons for this.
What if someone does an admin install (msiexec /a)? What if the AppSearch 
doesn't find those paths so the locations never get modified?

You can eliminate this error simply by adding a Name attribute to the offending 
directories:


   
 
   
 
   
   
 
   
 
 
   

This will mean they don't conflict, even if AppSearch doesn't run.

Thanks

I don't believe so (because the Directory.DefaultDir column that this
maps to isn't of the Formatted type, IIRC), and if you could I don't
think it would help you because you would still need to provide some
static default values in the property table to resolve the issue, and
you'd still need to make sure that the directory properties get set to
the correct paths during installation.

Also remember that the directory Name is just the name of the
directory, while what the property gets set to during install is the
full path.

The easiest thing is to simply give some made up default value, then
have the directory property set to the real path during install.

Hope that helps

John

the 64-bit registry when the value is 'yes'. When the value is 'no', the search 
looks in the 32-bit registry. The default value depends on the value of the 
Package/@Platform attribute: if the @Platform attribute value is 'x86', the 
default @Win64 attribute value is 'no'; otherwise, the default value is 'yes'.

Hi:

The key definitely exists on my test system, exporting the key from the 
registry editor gives:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\14.0] The Target value 
exists underneath.

If I author a custom action, this can open the top level "software\freedom 
scientific\jaws" key but carn't see anything underneath this.

The package is being built for x64, so I'm assuming the RegistrySearch will use 
the 64-bit hive.

Any help/info apeciated.

Sean.

[WiX-users] XmlConfig issue

Hi all,

I’m just refactoring and upgrading an installer from v2 to v3.8 of Wix.
We are using an XmlConfig from the util extension to modify a config file that 
is being installed with a .net application.
The file is being installed—looking at the directory as the product is being 
installed, but I’m getting the message that the installer carn’t open the file.
I get know filename from the ca but for what it’s worth here’s the log:

You need to create 2 components:

And x32Component containing all keys which should go the x32 view on a x64

Is there a way withing votive 2008/2010 to add multiple files to the installer? 
I don't really want to have to go through typing 99% the same code for 52

If it's completely at the users discretion how many copy operations
you'll need to do then yes if you want the package to uninstall cleanly
(and support rollback properly). There was a very similar requirement on
this list in the last few months which should be able to point you in
the right direction.

[WiX-users] handling the existance of multiple versions in an installation

2010-09-24 Thread Sean Farrow
Hi:
I am writing an installation that requires a product to be installed before 
installing my product.
There can be multiple versions of the product installed on a system. There are 
multiple paths involved in detecting the product. How would people handle this 
for best practices given the following:
The registry contains the path to the main executable and all other required 
paths for each version.
Would people have version specific properties pointing to the individual paths, 
or is it better to write a table and have one property to tell me whether the 
version of the product is installed.
Any help appreciated.

some overhead was removed. Do a diff to check where they are different
:-)

--- setup.wxs ---






























--- End:  setup.wxs ---


--- setupX64.wxs ---






























--- End:  setupX64.wxs ---

Then they are compiled using
:: x64 package
candle.exe" -out "setupX64.wixobj" "setupX64.wxs"
light.exe" -cc "%~dp0\" -reusecab -loc "English-US.wxl" -out
"setupX64.msi" "setupX64.wixobj"

:: x86 package
candle.exe" -out "setup.wixobj" "setup.wxs"
light.exe" -cc "%~dp0\" -reusecab -loc "English-US.wxl" -out
"setup.msi" "setup.wixobj"

which generates the corresponding cab files setup.cab, setupx86.cab
and setupx64.cab

I have the following fragment:

The condition is still evaluated to true, even after the registry search has

Both will do it, but if Orca is already installed it is usually faster. Dark
will usually only show the derivation from the "standard" sequence, which
