I am creating a System DSN in my installer using an Oracle ODBC driver. I am resolving the name and version of the driver with a custom action (I have to loop through the Oracle registry hive, otherwise I would have used RegistrySearch) during the InstallUISequence before LaunchConditions.
The only problem seems to be that ODBCDataSource/@DriverName and the nested Property/@Value are not formatted strings. This is my existing code: <Component Id="DSN.ABC_ORACLE" Guid="..." Permanent="yes"> <ODBCDataSource Id="ODBCDSN" Name="ABC_ORACLE" Registration="machine" DriverName="[ORACLE_DRIVER_NAME]"> <Property Id="DRIVER" Value="[ORACLE_DRIVER_NAME]"/> </ODBCDataSource> </Component> This just attempts to create a DSN using a driver named "[ORACLE_DRIVER_NAME]", which of course doesn't exist, instead of the value of the property, which should be something like "Oracle in OraHome92". (I verified the property is being set correctly.) Is there another way to go about this, or will I have to create another custom action to configure this DSN? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
