Hi all - I've managed to upgrade some of our installs to Wix 3.7 with the burn
bootstrapper, hooray !
One thing I haven't quite anticipated is this: after our automated build we
need to push a newly-built installer to a test machine for an automated
smoke/sanity test. First we need to uninstall the old build and install the
new one (silently, can't just use control panel). I know it's possible to run
the old Setup.exe with the "/quiet /uninstall" command-line params, but is that
the only way ?
With MSI's we could run "msiexec /x {product ID}" to do the uninstall. Is
there some way to silently run the uninstall by product name or some other ID
which doesn't change from build to build ? It would be nice not to have to
keep the old bundle around for the uninstall.
Thanks for any info !
-Rob
