Step 1, explain the problem.  Starting off by thinking you need to write custom code is a bit strange, as many have traversed the path before you using the existing capabilities and were able to accomplish the task at hand.

Subject: [wix-users] Wix Bundle and DetectCondition

Hello,

I would like to build and evaluate complex DetectConditions.
I thought of several possibilities:


- Create an extension such util, to create additional functions like string parse, search on regular expressions and so on.
But I don't understand how to do this. Is there a document or a tutorial about ?


- Evaluate the condition directly in a custom bootstrapper.
But it seems that it is not possible to get the DetectCondition attribute of an ExePackage. InstallCondition is available, but not DetectCondition :(

Do you have any advice ? examples ? information ?

Thank you.
