I have a CustomAction as follows:
<CustomAction Id='wsdCreateUser'
Directory='ProgramFilesFolder'
ExeCommand='[TARGETDIR]Windows\System32\net.exe user
wsdUser wsdPasswd'
Execute='immediate'
Return='check' />
Two issues:
1. After the wsdCreateUser custom action has executed I want to be able to
save that result (success or failure) in a new property for further usage.
I would like to trigger the execution of my custom action from a dialog box,
maybe a check box or push button, then use the property with the saved
result be used to call another CustomAction, but not until that property has
been set, is this possible with WIX?
2. If I set the Return code to 'check' and the creation failed for whatever
reason, the entire installation ends, I don't want that. Should I use
ignore? and if so, would the return value from the executed command still be
captured?
I'm really trying to get (1) working, I don't really wanna have to write C#
code or a dll just to save the return value of that custom action, is this
possible with WIX, it would seem that it's a most basic feature in an
installer, yet I can't seem to find any examples or information as to how to
go about doing this. I'm no expert with WIX but I'm guessing there's got to
be a way of getting this accomplished w/o writing a whole new executable or
dll.
Thank you in advance for any tips or sample you can send my way!
