hi try reading the JDK 32 bit and JDK 64 bit registry entries to 2 properties such as JDK32 and JDK64 and then use a condition combining those two properties to evaluate either of those present in the registry. Eg: <Property Id="JDK32"> <RegistrySearch Id="regJDK32" Root="HKLM" Type="raw" Key="SOFTWARE\JavaSoft" Name="Java Runtime Environment" /> </Property> <Property Id="JDK64"> <RegistrySearch Id="regJDK32" Root="HKLM" Type="raw" Key="SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Wow6432" Name="Java Runtime Environment" /> </Property>
<Condition Message="This application requires JDK"> <![CDATA[ JDK32 = "" AND JDK64 = "" ]]> </Condition> Regards, Asiri Wanigarathne http://www.asiri.name On 22 April 2010 02:44, jeff00seattle <jeff_tan...@earthlink.net> wrote: > > Hi > > Is there a way to define external product dependency conditionals within > WiX > authoring, and if this conditional is not meet then do not install? > > I am creating a WiX for a product that has a dependency to an another > product, or it will not run. > > The dependency product is JDK 32-bit build.
