The source code for the setup used by the Wixtoolset is in the Wix source code (see Setup\WixBA) and it has the behavior that you are looking for.  Look at the implementation of the UpdateViewModel.cs file which uses an atom syndication feed file.  You can use fiddler (http://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler/fiddler4) to watch what the WixBA is doing to get this feed file which it is launched.

Subject: [wix-users] How to create a setup manager to download updates of single package installed by a Burn Bundle

I have a Burn Bundle package that install some components of my application using msi packages.The user when run the setup can choose to install only some of these packaged based on which functionalities the user need.
I need to create a setup manager that can search for updates of each installed package.It should be as the updates of the windows operating system that silent search for updates and if it find that an installed package has an update it have to ask the user to download and install automatically.
Is there any way for doyng this using wix?Or I need to create a stand alone application that search for updated and manage the upgrade of the packages?
Thanks
