How to pass Installer property from server to client side?

[deployX]

Hi,

I'm trying to set an installer property on server side and want to access it back in client side. No matter what I do it does not pass the property to client side. For client to server we have securecustomproperty but do we have something similar from server to client?

I do not want to set a registry just to access properties from one mode to other.


Thanks.

I think serializing the value to the registry or a file which can be accessed by the client is the only approach available.

Hi Phil,

I've about 20 properties to pass. I'll have to write all of them to registry via a custom action. Then I'll have to schedule a custom action to read those properties back and delete registry. I just wanted to avoid custom actions for petty jobs.
