I'm trying to set CustomActionData for a managed custom action I've written
using a simple <SetProperty/>.
<Property Id="CustomAction1" Hidden="yes" />
<SetProperty Id="CustomAction1" Value="Key1=[Value1];Key2=[Value2];Key3=Value3"
Before="CustomAction1" Sequence="execute">
<![CDATA[NOT CustomAction1]]>
</SetProperty>
<CustomAction Id="CustomAction1" BinaryKey="CABinary"
DllEntry="CustomActionEntryPoint" Execute="firstSequence" HideTarget="yes" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="CustomAction1" After="InstallValidate" />
</InstallExecuteSequence>
In addition, I'm trying to call this managed custom action as a result of
clicking a PushButton on a Dialog:
<Dialog ... >
...
<Control Type="PushButton" ... >
...
<Publish Property="CustomAction1"
Value="Key1=[Value1];Key2=[Value2];Key3=Value4" Order="1">1</Publish>
<Publish Event="DoAction" Value="CustomAction1" Order="2">1</Publish>
<Publish Property="CustomActionEntryPointResult"
Value="[CustomActionEntryPointResult]" Order="3">1</Publish>
</Control>
</Dialog>
I've set MMsiBreak=CustomAction1 in my environment and I've been able to break
into my managed custom action to debug it when I click the PushButton in the
UI. The very first thing I do in the managed custom action is to retrieve the
first key-value pair from CustomActionData:
string value1 = session.CustomActionData["Key1"];
This line results in a KeyNotFoundException. It appears that
session.CustomActionData is completely empty.
I see that session["CustomAction1"] ==
"Key1=[Value1];Key2=[Value2];Key3=Value4" as expected.
Am I missing something about how CustomActionData is supposed to work in
managed custom actions?
