Hi,
Thanks for reply. Actually I want to register our com exe. We are using heat to
create the .wxs file. It contains the information about class and interface ids
but still it is not registering. We want to see our COM exes into dcomcnfg. Our
COM exes only showing in dcomcinfg after using RegServer command. So can you
please suggest me what I have to do to show my COM exes into dcomcnfg (or
register similar to RegServer using WIX)
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi
Windows Installer doesn't support logging the console output of command you
execute through a custom action.
Consider using CAQuietExec to execute your custom action. That will do two
things for you:
1.) Hide the command prompt window that shows up for console applications.
2.) Capture your console application's output and include it in the MSI log
file.
See the WiX documentation to read up on CAQuietExec.
Of course, I would *highly* discourage you from using the custom action to
register your application as support for repair, uninstall, and all the
different types of rollback are more difficult to handle (you're allowing a
blackbox to execute that _could_ do anything).
That said, if you still want to register your application using the custom
action, then consider scheduling it between InstallInitialize and
InstallFinalize and make the custom action deferred. Obviously you'll want to
schedule it at least after InstallFiles.
