Subject: [WiX-users] [Wix-users] - SQL connection within Custom Action

Hi all,

I got a product in Java and trying to make an Installer with WIX.

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.

Thanks
