Thanks Levi. Is it even possible then to ensure that one of the
variables I wish the user to enter is of type integer?
<Control Id="PortEdit" Type="Edit" X="30" Y="145" Width="150"
Height="20" Property="MY_PORT" Text="{5}" Integer="yes" />
I would have though something like the above, however if you enter an
alphanumberic value in the text field and click elsewhere the
installer will crash with error code 2892, and can only be closed from
task manager ( wix 3.0.2211 ) :|
2892 says that the value isn't a legal integer. Integer="yes" doesn't
restrict input. If you want that, use a MaskedEdit control; see
"MaskedEdit Control" for available formatting options.
To answer your other question: MSI doesn't evaluate control conditions
on every character entered into an edit control. The "ControlEvent
Overview" topic in the MSI SDK covers what controls publish which
events. Push buttons and check boxes are the two that are most commonly
used.
