Hi all

I have just finished the first cut of code that allows SAF to be easily called from a WIX (MSI), meaning that you can now run your Macros from not only MSBuild, Features, StsAdm but also WIX. I would love to hear any ideas / feedback / thoughts you have on how I can make this better.

Currently, its integrated with a Wix Custom Action - like this ...

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<Wix xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi'>
  <Fragment>
    <CustomAction Id='DoMacro'
                  BinaryKey='CollaborisSaf'
                  DllEntry='RunMacro'
                  Return='check'
                  Impersonate='yes'
                  Execute='deferred'
                  />

     <CustomAction Id="SetSafPropertiesDo"
                  Return="check"
                  Property="DoMacro"
                  Value="CurrentDirectory=[INSTALLLOCATION];MacroPath=[INSTALLLOCATION]\Macros\CreateWeb.macro;Mode=Do;TargetUrl=http://localhost:4422;" />

    <CustomAction Id='UndoMacro'
                  BinaryKey='CollaborisSaf'
                  DllEntry='RunMacro'
                  Return='check'
                  Impersonate='yes'
                  Execute='immediate'
                  />

    <CustomAction Id="SetSafPropertiesUndo"
                 Return="check"
                 Property="UndoMacro"
                 Value="CurrentDirectory=[INSTALLLOCATION];MacroPath=[INSTALLLOCATION]\Macros\CreateWeb.macro;Mode=Undo;TargetUrl=http://localhost:4422;" />

    <Binary Id='CollaborisSaf' SourceFile="$(var.Collaboris.Saf.TargetDir)$(var.Collaboris.Saf.TargetName).CA.dll" />

  </Fragment>
</Wix>

 These Custom Actions then get called from inside your *.wxs file like this :

<InstallExecuteSequence>

      <Custom Action="SetSafPropertiesDo" After='InstallFiles'>NOT (REMOVE="ALL")</Custom>
      <Custom Action='DoMacro' After='SetSafPropertiesDo'>NOT (REMOVE="ALL")</Custom>

      <Custom Action="SetSafPropertiesUndo" After='InstallValidate'>REMOVE="ALL"</Custom>
      <Custom Action='UndoMacro' After='SetSafPropertiesUndo'>REMOVE="ALL"</Custom>
     
</InstallExecuteSequence>

let me know your thoughts...
