Oops. Sorry Chris for the duplicate - I forgot to reply to all on the
first one.
Here's what I sent to Chris - others, tell me if this won't work, because
I may need this approach myself, later in my installer building process.
You could do custom actions that set another property based on its
previous existence...
consider a property named JVMHOME. Don't initialize (or create) it.
Write custom actions conditioned on JVMHOME existing, that in sequence set
the JVMHOME to another value if the appropriate variable is set.
For instance:
<CustomAction Id="setJVMpath1" Property="JVMPATH" Value="[JDKHOME15]"
...>JDKHOME15 AND NOT JVMPATH</CustomAction>
<CustomAction Id="setJVMpath2" Property="JVMPATH" Value="[JREHOME15]"
...>JREHOME15 AND NOT JVMPATH</CustomAction>
...
I think this will work. The ... in the <> are there because I don't know
what other properties you need to make this go into the proper sequence
etc. If you use this approach, please post back (or reply to me) with the
proper complete set of attributes so I'll know the next time.

[WiX-users] Searching for multiple registry keys
Hi again,
Some of my shortcuts call Java, and I need them to find the "right" one
when multiple versions are installed. So I set up 4 <Property> elements
which set JDKHOME15, JREHOME15, JDKHOME16, and JREHOME15 using
<RegistrySearch>.
It looks like these properties are being set correctly when I install
using msiexec and get verbose logging.
How do I set up a <Shortcut> to use [JDKHOME15]\bin\javaw if JDKHOME15 is
set, or [JREHOME15]bin\javaw if JDKHOME15 is not set and JREHOME15 is, or
[etc]? I can't work out the <Condition> syntax, and I can't work out how
to use a <Condition> with <Shortcut>s :-(
Am I even on the right track?
Cheers,
Chris
