How to call an external executable / call functions from an external Win 32 DLL at the time of un-install?
Hi, I have an InstallScript MSI project.
I am using InstallScript for performing some actions at the time of feature install / un-install. The actions at the time of install work fine.
However, the control won't even go to uninstall functions, even when I debug!
The un-installing functions are: export prototype Feature_Drivers_UnInstalling(); function Feature_Drivers_UnInstalling() begin CallSomeExecutables(); end;
Where in the sequence is the ca scheduled to run? You need to put custom actions you want to run during uninstall in the execute sequence because if you remove a program using add/remove programs then the uninstall completely skips the UI sequence.
Also, I attached a pdf file that Robert Dickau wrote about setting conditions for installing and uninstalling that has helped me in the past. I uploaded the file because I couldn't remember the link. Anyway, hope this helps.
