support files for a Merge Module CA - PLEASE HELP!
someone MUST have a solution to this:
i have a merge module which contains custom actions which depend on some DLLs. since there is no concept of support files in a merge module (nothing automatically extracted to the SUPPORTDIR) i wrote some logic to extract a file from the binary table and then load it. this is only okay in immediate mode CAs, however, as the handle passed to deferred execution CAs is not valid for calls to MsiDataBaseOpenView.
can somebody please help me?
