Hi everyone.
Thanks for all the responses from everyone, they have all helped me to get
to the basic stage of install and de-install and performing some action. The
final result was (probably not dis-similar to what is posted here) but I
always like to finish threads off
<Binary Id="wixca" src="c:\wix_v2_orig\wixca.dll"/>
<CustomAction Id="InstallSwapCom.Command"
Property="QtExecCmdLine" Value=""perl"
"[INSTALLDIR]first.pl" install"/>
<CustomAction Id="InstallSwapCom"
BinaryKey="wixca"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="immediate"
Return="check"/>
<CustomAction Id="DeinstallSwapCom.Command"
Property="QtExecCmdLine" Value=""perl"
"[INSTALLDIR]first.pl" deinstall"/>
<CustomAction Id="DeinstallSwapCom"
BinaryKey="wixca"
DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="immediate"
Return="ignore"/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<!-- If not installed, generate the install command and execute it
(after finializing the install) -->
<Custom Action="InstallSwapCom.Command" After="InstallFinalize">NOT
Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="InstallSwapCom" After="InstallSwapCom.Command">NOT
Installed</Custom>
<!-- If installed, generate the uninstall command and execute it
(before removing any files) -->
<Custom Action="DeinstallSwapCom.Command"
Before="DeinstallSwapCom">Installed</Custom>
<Custom Action="DeinstallSwapCom"
Before="RemoveFiles">Installed</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
Regards and thanks
