I'm a relavite newbie with WiX, but haven't been able to figure out
the answer to this question via Google or StackOverflow (for the
record, the question is posted at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6710578/multiple-results-for-wix-findfile;
I'll update with any answers received here):
I'm trying to run a Matlab command-line invocation from within my WiX
3.5 installer. There may be multiple versions of Matlab installed on
the users' systems, and I need to run the command invocation once for
each Matlab installation.
I have the following XML in my wxs file to find matlab.exe:
<Property Id="MATLABEXE">
<DirectorySearch Id="ProgramFiles" Path="[ProgramFilesFolder]">
<DirectorySearch Id="MATLAB" Path="MATLAB" Depth="3">
<FileSearch Name="matlab.exe"/>
</DirectorySearch>
</DirectorySearch>
</Property>
I then run the command-line invocation via a custom action using
[MATLABEXE] as the exe. This works well for finding a single Matlab
installations under C:\Program Files\MATLAB, but the MATLABEXEproperty
appears to get the path to only one installation if there are
multiples.
Is there a better way to find and call a custom action on each
matlab.exe that exists below some director (e.g. C:\Program
Files\MATLAB)?
Thank you,
Barry
