CustomActionData not working.
Hi,
Please look below code which is not working.
I am calling in deffered with system context after CreateShortCut Sequence.
It is not running.
I searched in CustomActionData direct editor but not found.
I created CustomActionData property and value but still value is not getting.
Please solve this issue.
Thanks
Anand
UINT __stdcall GetInstallDir(MSIHANDLE hInstall)
{
TCHAR szValue[14096] = {0};
DWORD dwBuffer = sizeof(szValue);
unsigned int dwRetVal = MsiGetProperty(hInstall, TEXT("CustomActionData"), szValue, &dwBuffer);
if(ERROR_SUCCESS == dwRetVal)
{
//I got always here. but dwBuffer is 0
}
}

It might be an issue with the custom actions that feed data to CustomActionData. Please see, for example, this newsletter tip (PDF warning): http://www.macrovision.com/webdocuments/PDF/CustomActionData.pdf?link_id=productsTipsTricks.
