Setting a property from the return code of an exe

Hi,

It would be handy to have a simple method for running an exe (e.g. via a custom action) and setting some property based on the return code of the utility. Even true/false to indicate success/failure would be good.

Thanks,
David.

Hi David,

I am afraid that this feature can not be implemented. Windows Installer does not allow you to get the return value of a custom action.
