pass Installation Success to DLL
I am trying to pass a parameter to a .net dll that is configured as a CustomAction. The custom action runs as the last step of the execute sequence and is used to log the results of the install. Is there a property available that will indicate if the installation has been sucessful up to that point?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Why would you need a property? If the install has failed, then rollback should occur and your custom action shouldn't ever fire.

I am trying to call a web service at the begining and end of each installation. The 1st call is with general information about the install (ie. previous version, install version, hostname) and the 2nd call should be at the end of the installation to provide the success/failure status for that install as well as any error messages encountered. I have the 1st call working fine but, it is the 2nd call with the status and error messages that I am having issues with.
