I've got a WiX installer that is meant to update VS 2010 templates after installing them. The code I'm using is as follows:
<CustomAction
Id="InstallTemplates"
ExeCommand=""[VISUALSTUDIODIR]devenv.exe" /installvstemplates"
Directory="VISUALSTUDIODIR"
Execute="commit"
Return="check"
HideTarget="no"
Impersonate="no"/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="InstallTemplates" Before="InstallFinalize"></Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
In the above, VISUALSTUDIODIR
refers to the correct location, and templates are correctl开发者_如何学JAVAy deployed. However, it seems that the command does not get called, so no templates are actually installed. What am I doing wrong?
WiX has built-in functionality to do that. Add a reference to WixVSExtension.dll and add the following authoring:
<CustomActionRef Id="VS2010InstallVSTemplates" />
Make sure that VISUALSTUDIODIR is an actual directory in your MSI package (it's saved in Directory table). This is a requirement for this type of custom action.
Also, try creating an installation log and search for your custom action to see what happens.
