After the end of my install, I wish to run my newly created exe with command
line parameters. The exe is dependent upon dlls that have been added during
the install, so I'm figuring maybe I have to set the working directory
somehow prior to running the exe so that it will correctly pick up the dlls?
I'm not at work right now, but I think my code was something like:
<CustomAction Id='LaunchMyExe' FileKey='[INSTALLDIR]\My.exe'
ExeCommand='blah' Return='asyncNoWait' />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action='LaunchMyExe' After='InstallFinalize'>NOT
Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
</Product>
</Wix>
At the minute, upon running the msi, as the final dialog shows up the exe
tries to run but fails and crashes ( however it does work if I go directly
to the installed location of the exe and dlls and double click it ). Am I
right in thinking I need to set the working directory somehow prior to
calling this custom action? If so, how do I do it or is it something else
completely?
Thanks,
Patrick
