Howdy all,
I'm working on an installer that needs to detect whether a specific version of
DirectX 9.0 is installed (9.0c). Unfortunately a standard registry check using
this:
<Property Id="DIRECTXVERSION">
<RegistrySearch Id="DirectXVersion" Root="HKLM" Type="raw"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX" Name="Version"/>
</Property>
doesn't work since the Version value is the same for all flavours of DirectX
9.0. I do know a specific file that is installed in c:\windows\system32 that
identifies the version of DirectX installed, and also know what version number
I need to see on it to be happy.
How do I look up this file's version, so I can put that value into a property
and the use it as a condition? Alternatively, does anyone know of a better way
to detect the specific version of DirectX 9.0 that is installed on a machine?
Thanks!
Neil
