First-Sequence Custom Action

Description

This pill demonstrates how to create a first-sequence custom action.

A first-sequence custom action is executed in the first sequence where it is encountered. Subsequent executions will be skipped.

How to use

a) Tutorial (article)

  • TBD

b) Code example

  • sources
  • I provided the complete Visual Studio solution that solves the described problem. Use it if you need to test it by yourself, in your environment or if you have further ideas that you want to verify.

c) Code notes

  • A shorter version of the tutorial can be found directly in the source code.
    • Open Visual Studio solution
    • Search (Ctrl+Shift+F) for the START comment. It usually can be found in the Product.wxs file, but it is not a rule.
    • Then follow the Step comments in the numbered order.
  • Note: The NEXT tags at the end of each comment indicates the file where to search for the next Step.

d) Log file examples

  • doc/logs
  • Sometimes a quick look into the log files may be useful, but running the installer each time is cumbersome. I generated the log files for the meaningful scenarios and I placed them into this directory. Have a look when needed.
