Hi All I'm porting one of our old installers from the VS setup projects into WiX. So far everything has been going very well. The WiX source files are much easier to deal with than the VS projects and our installer is now 45Mb smaller than it used to be.
Unfortunately there is one task that I'm stuck on. As part of the install we want to install an extended stored procedure into SQLserver (2000, 2005 or 2008 depending on what the customer has). We've got a DLL that is linked from the stored procedure (in both 32bit and 64bit versions) and so the installer needs to find the installed version of SQLserver, determine which version of the DLL to install and then install it. At the moment we're using some custom code (a C# class that derives from System.Configuration.Install.Installer) that is run via the InstallUtil. This our code isn't the most robust so I'd like to replace it with something else. If possible something that is build into WiX. So the question is, have other people done something like this before and is there an (semi-)easy way to install the DLL and register it with SQL server?
