Re: [WiX-users] Managed Bootrapper next step

[Neil S. <ne...@x2...>]

I have been studying InstallationViewModel.cs but just can't get my head around all the states and can't find it documented anywhere. Hopefully the WiX documentation will be improved in the near future.

I have created a very basic managed bootstrapper and it is loaded
correctly by my bundle but it doesn't actually run the install it just
stays in memory but with nothing happening. I have looked at the WiX
install and just can't figure out what I need to do next, I think it is
something to do with  the Detect() and Plan() functions.


You are on the right track. You definitely need to call Detect(), then
Plan(), then Apply(). However, you will find that you will also want to
handle a lot of the burn callbacks as well (as a result of making the above
calls).

Take a look at src\Setup\WixBA\InstallationViewModel.cs as an example.

Hope that helps somewhat.
