wix3.5 - WiX Installer Spawn an Executable -


my questions this, have wix installer .msi want able to, after successful installation, executable runs installation. reason need wix installer installs application developed , executable need run installs application developed long time ago. second executable independent first installation , not have uninstalled when application installed .msi is not have worry roll backs. wondering if there way have .msi use ca launch .exe upon completion? know how .msi launch application installs after installation executable need not included in .msi, confusion/deleama coming from. if maybe point me in right direction great!

thanks.

this typical case installer chainer, particularly since installers independent. wix offers bootstrapper project type creates bootstrapper/downloader/chainer. ideal situation.

you can create such project using bootstrapper project template in visual studio or writing needed xml files hand. default, bootstrapper creates uninstall entry uninstalled , uninstall of packages. but, if prefer, can make exepackage permanent (with respect bootstrapper).
