Not directly possible to access your CustomAction's attributes.  You'll have to 
pass yourself an extra piece of information (another Property).

Subject: [WiX-users] Is there a way to find out whether my custom action is 
running with Return="check" or "ignore"

I have the following dilemma: I have a C++ custom action that finds out
an Active Directory domain controller. It's used in two scenarios: one
where we want a blank value when the machine is not on a domain and
another where we want the CA to fail. Naturally I used Return=ignore for
the one where I want a blank value.



    <CustomAction Id="FindActiveDirectory" BinaryKey="ActiveDirectory"
DllEntry="DirectoryGetDcName" Execute="immediate" Return="ignore" />



But my custom action fails and reports an error with MsiProcessMessage.
Which turns into an ugly popup. I do want the popup in the scenario
where it's Return="check" though. How can I achieve that?



Ideally I'd like to find out whether the CA is executing with
Return=ignore or Return=check and act accordingly. Possible?



Thx

dB.
