[wix-users] Update progress status with custom dynamic text

[Nir Bar]

MsiProcessMessage has full documentation on record fields. Generally, you define a template for ActionData messages with ProgressText element.


<ProgressText Action="MyAction" Template="My name is [1]"/>


Then, in the custom action code, you send records with the template parameters.


using (Record rec = new Record(2))
{
  rec[1]= "Oscar Acosta";
  session.Message(InstallMessage.ActionData, rec);
}
