[wix-users] Uninstall Burn if chained msi is triggered to uninstall

[Rob Mensching]

In general, you don't. Burn won't mind if a package is already uninstalled.

Subject: [wix-users] Uninstall Burn if chained msi is triggered to uninstall

Hi experts,

I've installed a msi chained in my Burn based bootstrapper. Bootstrapper is capable of Reinstalling/Uninstalling/Modifying its installation very well.
Now if I trigger the uninstall of msi directly either using msiexec /xcommand line or from control panel (if msi is allowed to appear there), my boostrapper wouldn't know that its child is being uninstalled.

*Q:* How to let Boostrapper application know that its delivered msi is being removed so that it can respond with Maintenance Dialog to show?
