[wix-users] Custom Bootstrapper Application, command line usage - possible?

[Edwin Castro]

What do you mean by "We could run it when using the standard BA"?

I use the standard BA as well and when I run it from the command line the
GUI just pops up and the command line returns as expected for a Windows
application. If I want to wait until the bootstrapper completes I need to
execute it using start /wait.
