Most probably is the best way to do that is to write custom action.

I don't know the details because I've never used that, but the code is clearly
taking two paths, one for immediate and one for deferred, so it seems to me you
need to have two calls to that custom action, one immediate and one deferred,
because that's the general architecture of the mechanism.

Sweet! That write-up was extremely useful! Steps 1-3 gave me the context I
needed. Thank you so very much! I was probably being dense.
The value passed in from tfsbuild.proj was getting overridden by the definition
in the *.wixproj which is why you got the results you got in 3). In MSBuild the
That wordpress code seems (reasonably enough!) to be based on this:

where it says that both an immediate and deferred custom actions are needed for
this. The code at that wordpress link seems to have both required pieces of

My suspicion is that there is some oddness in the way you are defining
properties in tfsbuild.proj, how they are passed to the solution, and how the
projects themselves consume those properties. In MSBuild you need to be
explicit about which properties are passed to whom and values can get

Hi Peter,
Thank you very much! The twin dialog works perfectly!
IMHO - Since this is a limitation with MSI, this is probably something that
should be highlighted in the Msi or Wix docs.

OK. I have a much easier repro scenario. I tried simply running msbuild on my
tfsbuild.proj
(after all this time I did not know you could do that...) And it failed in
exactly the same way - DefineConstants in the wixproj are not included on the
command line to candle.
Unless a fix is coming
Maybe someone should TFS again. Seems pretty obvious that part is broken.
My tfsbuild.proj is pretty standard. I've only included the relevant sections.
DefineConstants=BG_STANDARD;
OutDir=$(TeamBuildOutDir)BG_STANDARD\
You'd need to recompile it.
Easier way ->

Its a long time since I did any MSI UI. This is my old code. Perhaps
this will shed some light on your problem. Its wix 2 but you should be
able to convert if necessary.

Hi Peter,
I'm had the same problem as Matt, I tried the twin dialog hack but most of
my dialogs has checkbox, when I clone my dialogs, it complains about "The
primary key 'PROPERTY1' is duplicated in table 'CheckBox'."
Is there a workaround for this? Btw, it's working when there's no checkbox
in
It's inside wix3.msi.

Ok, so I thought that I provide the solution of how to use the
StringTools.dll contained in the msiext found
http://msiext.codeplex.com/releases/view/39468 as I myself spend to much
time to get it to work!! and maybe this could help someone else..
Put the StringTools.dll in the same folder as the .
It does, I just tested it in WiX v3.0.5419.0. Works absolutely fine for
DLL's & OCX's which export the DLLRegisterServer function. My guess is
his DLL doesn't or it has dependencies which can't be loaded by heat.exe
when it tries to harvest it.
If your DLL can't be registered with regsvr32.exe /s
Its not a bug but rather a limitation of MSI UI. Dialogs do not redraw
when you set a property in a custom action. The usual workaround is to
use the "double dialog" hack. See these threads for details.

You can apply several patches at once with msiexec.
For example:
msiexec /update patch1.msp;patch2.msp;patch3.msp
