Hi,
I'm trying to get Burn to install .Net 4.0.3 - if it is not already
installed - prior to kicking off my managed bootstrapper, which itself
specifically requires 4.0.3 to run properly.
I've included <PackageGroupRef Id="NetFx40Web" /> in my bundle, and that
works fine in general and installs 4.0.3; however, the problem occurs when a
user already has .Net 4 but *NOT* Platform Update 3. The check in
WixNetFxExtension to install .Net Framework rightly evaluates as false
because .Net Framework 4 is already installed. In order to work around this
for my purposes, I've tried modifying the WixNetFxExtension source to add a
check for Platform Update 3, and install it if it isn't present:
Snippet from modified NetFx4.wxs:

Regrettably this isn't working - the platform update doesn't get installed
at all.
Any ideas where I'm going wrong? Is there a simpler way to do this? Any
help would be very much appreciated!
Cheers,
Scottie
