Interesting idea. It might not hurt to fire one off to wix-devs and see if
anyone else peaks an interest at this. The only downside that I can see is it
would require some breaking changes to implement.

It's in the bin\sdk\ directory in wix37-binaries.zip.

Embed the JRE as loose files in your package.

Yes. See the UIText table doc in the MSI SDK and the WixUIExtension loc
strings like UITextSelChildCostPos.

You need a bundle for that. There's a template "Bootstrapper Project" in

Hi all,
Surely this has been done by someone, but I haven't found anything definitive
on it so far.

if it isn't, then download and install it. We want it to be as seamless as

A fragment is a general organization / import tool at design time. They are
not executed. That's why it allowed you to do what you did below. But you
can't use directoryref or component in a bundle, only in MSI.
You are using a managed BA? I think burn takes care of reboot and recalling
its
Burn is a bootstrapper/chainer not an installation technology. That means
it doesn't put stuff on the machine directly, it manages the things that
put stuff on the machine.Thus, you need to put the registry key in a
"package" that is executed by an installation technology.

Sounds like that MSI has it's digital signature messed up. Microsoft made
that mistake a few times. You can work around the issue by adding the
SuppressSignature attribute (it's called something like that) to the
MsiPackage element.

Your BA should not modify machine state. You can read existing registry values
into variables for the bundle to condition upon, but all state modification
should happen inside an Exe/Msi Package. I'm still a bit confused as to why you
would need to know if the .Net framework was installed before
This worked perfectly, thanks!

It might be best if you give more details about what you're trying to

This means a 'bundle' creates a msi bootstrapped in an exe.
