I want to display OpenFileDialog using C# custom Action(since WIX does not
support this). I tried this but CA is not getting fired,instead my installer
hangs. I also checked if the OpenFileDialog is hidden behind the installer
window..which is not the case.
If I comment the OpenFileDialog dialog = new OpenFileDialog(); line in my
CA, it works.
Below is my code.
<CustomAction Id="ConfigFileCA" BinaryKey="DLLFilePath"
DllEntry="GetConfigFile" Return="check" Execute="immediate"
Impersonate="no"></CustomAction>
<Publish Dialog="FileBrowseDlg" Control="Next" Event="NewDialog"
Value="VerifyReadyDlg" Order="1">1</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="FileBrowseDlg" Control="Back" Event="NewDialog"
Value="DBConnection" Order="1">1</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="FileBrowseDlg" Control="Cancel" Event="SpawnDialog"
Value="CancelDlg" Order="1">1</Publish>
<Publish Dialog="FileBrowseDlg" Control="btnChange" Event="DoAction"
Value="ConfigFileCA" Order="1">1</Publish>
<Dialog Id="FileBrowseDlg" Width="370" Height="270" Title="OneCore v3.1
Setup" NoMinimize="yes">
<Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="244" Width="56"
Height="17" Default="yes" Text="Next"><Publish Event="EndDialog"
Value="Return"><![CDATA[1]]></Publish></Control>
<Control Id="Back" Type="PushButton" X="176" Y="244" Width="56"
Height="17" Cancel="yes" Text="Back"/>
<Control Id="Cancel" Type="PushButton" X="304" Y="243" Width="56"
Height="17" Cancel="yes" Text="Cancel"/>
<Control Id="ComboLabel" Type="Text" X="25" Y="58" Width="158"
Height="10" TabSkip="no" Text="Specify the location for Configuration File
:" />
<Control Id="BannerLine" Type="Line" X="0" Y="44" Width="374"
Height="0" />
<Control Id="BottomLine" Type="Line" X="0" Y="234" Width="374"
Height="0" />
<Control Type="Edit" Id="txtFilePath" Width="283" Height="15" X="30"
Y="82" Property="CONFIGFILE" Text="[CONFIGFILE]"/>
<Control Type="PushButton" Id="btnChange" Width="56" Height="17"
X="30" Y="105" Text="Change...">
<Publish Event="EndDialog"
Value="Return"><![CDATA[1]]></Publish></Control>
<Control Type="Text" Id="Title" Width="95" Height="15" X="11" Y="11"
Text="Configuration File Path" />
<Control Id="BannerBitmap" Type="Bitmap" X="0" Y="0" Width="370"
Height="44" TabSkip="no" Text="!(loc.BrowseDlgBannerBitmap)"/>
</Dialog>
My C# CA:
[CustomAction]
public static ActionResult GetConfigFile(Session session)
{
try
{
OpenFileDialog dialog = new OpenFileDialog();
dialog.Filter = "Config File (*.xml)|*.xml";
dialog.InitialDirectory = @"C:\";
dialog.Title = "Select Configuration File";
if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
session["CONFIGFILE"] = dialog.FileName;
return ActionResult.Success;
}
else
return ActionResult.Failure;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
session["CONFIGFILE"] = ex.Message;
return ActionResult.Failure;
}
}
The Log file displays following message:
Action 11:14:32: FileBrowseDlg. Dialog created MSI (c) (94:D4)
[11:14:33:838]: Doing action: ConfigFileCA MSI (c) (94:D4) [11:14:33:838]:
Note: 1: 2205 2: 3: ActionText Action 11:14:33: ConfigFileCA. Action start

Please guide me on how to make this work...
Thank you.
