I've just started looking at using WiX to generate my Windows installers and
am not sure how to handle this. I've seen a little bit of information regarding
MS SQL Server, but not MySQL.
I want to prompt the user to enter their database details (hostname, username,
password, etc). I then want to check that the indicated database is a supported
version, and set up tables and initial data. I also would like the ability to
be able to upgrade the tables (and containing data!) from one version to
another, without explicitly writing ALTER TABLE commands for every upgrade path.
Is this currently possible with WiX, or is the best option to write my own
"database installer" for my application and execute it as a custom install
sequence like I can with dxsetup.exe?
