Is it possible to sequence a custom action before "LaunchConditions"?
This is my custom action:
<CustomAction
Id="CA_vcAppRunning"
BinaryKey="vcShowMsg"
DllEntry="IsAppRunning"
Return="check"
Execute="immediate"/>
Sequenced in <InstallExecuteSequence/>
<Custom Action="CA_vcAppRunning" Before="LaunchConditions" />
I tried this, opened the MSI file in Orca and found that my custom action is sequenced at "99". But when I tried to install, it never got called.
I want to schedule this before LaunchConditions as this custom 开发者_Go百科action is supposed to set a property which is used in the LaunchCondition (if the application is running, exit the installer/updater).
Don't schedule it in before LaunchConditions
, schedule it after FindRelatedProducts
and then add a second custom action that blocks install based on the results from your first CA.
This is the same method used to prevent downgrading in many tutorials, e.g.
<CustomAction Id="CA_BlockOlderVersionInstall" Error="!(loc.LaunchCondition_LaterVersion)" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<LaunchConditions After="AppSearch" />
<Custom Action="CA_BlockOlderVersionInstall" After="FindRelatedProducts">
<![CDATA[NEWERVERSIONDETECTED]]>
</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
<InstallUISequence>
<LaunchConditions After="AppSearch" />
<Custom Action="CA_BlockOlderVersionInstall" After="FindRelatedProducts">
<![CDATA[NEWERVERSIONDETECTED]]>
</Custom>
</InstallUISequence>
