Within the Installation I want to check if an SQL Server configuration is correct. Within my Custom Dialog I added a Button to Validate the configuration I read about using Binary Custom Action written within .dll. 1) Is there anyway to avoid the use of dll and do a Test Connection with Wix SQL Extensions? 2) If there isn't a way how can I do this with the least requirements? Do I have to use Visual C++ ? Since the product is in Java I don't want to include .NET Framework just for the installation.
