[WiX-users] How to differentiate Vista from win server 2008

From: ywchen <YungWei.Chen@re...> - 2008-05-29 16:15

Hi,

    According to 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa370556(VS.85).aspx this link ,
vista and win server 2008 seem to be identical. Is there any other property
that I should use to differentiate them? Thanks a lot.

Check out MsiNtProductType. WiX v3 also includes custom actions that 
break it down further. See "OSInfo custom actions" in WiX.chm.
