I'd like to execute a custom action (custom .exe) during Install Execution (Execution time: deferred), and then return some text or a status back to advanced installer so I can change the text displayed on ExitDialog depending on what happens during this .exe.
What's the best way to go about this? I looked for some documentation/examples but can't really find anything directly.
I'm open to wrapping this in a .dll/vbscript/jscript/whatever, but figured I'd ask here before going too far down some rat hole.
