[wix-users] Condition UILevel with burn

[Phill Hogland]

I am not aware of how to do that.  I guess I would look at the wix source.  I expect the mbaprereq to make sure that the minimum framework that my mba needs (NetFx45x) is in place so that my mba will run.  Once the mba is running then I can do what is needed for other applications (like NetFx3 for one of my product scenarios).  Since I target Win 7 SP1 or later the mbaprereq is rarely ever used, thankfully.  If not using a mba and using WixStdBA then look at using a BAFunctions.dll, in the wix src\burn\samples.

Hi Phill,
I can't do that because this wix code is for the prereq mba and this code might run before my custom MBA will run. (so I can't ugo through my MBA).

Is there any run-time wix only concept? Without going through my C# code (at my mba?)

Thanks,
Roni

Use an event handler (DetectComplete) in the BA to set a Burn Engine Variable, based on evaluating the Burn Command.Display object.

This syntax is for the 'pre-compiler'  is a compile phase implemented by the candle tool, so it would not know anything about the users runtime beyhavior..

Hi everyone,

How can you condition a variable based on UILevel ?

I'm trying to do something like this: (2 is for silent)
    <?if UILevel=2 ?>
      <Variable
        Name="var1"
        Value="A" />
    <?else?>
    <Variable
        Name="var1"
        Value="b" />
    <?endif?>

But it doesn't seem to work..

Any idea?

Thanks,

Roni (Aron) Fuchs
