Hi,
I am trying to pre-select the features to be installed so when the user is on
the CustomizeDlg, they are automatically selected(default is not selected).
The features am trying to pre-select come from a registry entry that I have
created by a different application before running the installer . Here is where
I am stuck:
I read the registry entry as a property:
<Property Id='FEATURES_FOUND'>
<RegistrySearch Id='FeaturesFound' Root='HKLM'
Key='SOFTWARE\MyKey\MySubkey'
Name='RequiredFeatures' Type='raw' />
"RequiredFeatures" is what holds the feature list and they match exactly what I
have declared in the WIX installer.(Feature ID is the same as the ones in the
registry)
The features are comma separated. So, now when I add an event to the next
button of the Dialog that comes before the CustomizeDlg, it errors out saying :
<Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17"
Default="yes" Text="!(loc.WixUINext)" >
<Publish Event="ADDLOCAL" Value="[FEATURES_FOUND]">1</Publish>
</Control>
"Error 2711: The specified Feature name not found in Feature Table."
I tried adding a feature exclusively to test if the event even works or not and
it works this way. I see the feature being selected in the CustomizeDlg
<Control Id="Next" Type="PushButton" X="236" Y="243" Width="56" Height="17"
Default="yes" Text="!(loc.WixUINext)" >
<Publish Event="ADDLOCAL" Value="MyFeature">1</Publish>
</Control>
Any suggestions?
