Hi,
I'm writing a custom action in C# and would like to pass it the path to
which I extract my binaries. I have defined the directory:
<Directory Id='Foo' Name='Foo' LongName='Foo'/>
and defined a custom actions:
<CustomAction Id='Bar' BinaryKey='InstallUtil' DllEntry='ManagedInstall'
Execute='Deferred' />
<CustomAction Id='BarSetProp' Property='Bar'
Value='/installtype=notransaction /action=install /MyBinaries=[Foo]
/LogFile= "[#MyCustomAction.dll]" "[VSDFxConfigFile]"' />
Running the MSI is terminated upon failure with an empty message box and
logs say that the custom action has leaked an MSIHANDLE. Also, you can see
in the logs that the [Foo] was expanded properly to my binaries folder.
Removing the "/MyBinaries" parameter makes the setup work. My WIX version
is: 2.0.3620.
Has anyone encountered this problem? What is the best practice to pass
arguments to a managed custom action?
Thanks,
-al
