I am looking to insert a custom page into the burn Bootstrapper sequence that collects data, via a checkbox, and lets the user choose whether they want to install SqlExpress as part of the install process.
The research that I have done suggests that this is not possible without modifying the Wix Sources.
Is this correct?
Kind Regards
Scott
WiX Toolset provides two (well, actually three) Bootstrapper Applications:
Alternately, you can write your own BA, in either C/C++ (or any "compatible" language) or managed code, and use it instead of the one provided by WiX (e.g. for a client I helped develop a BA written using WTL that used the built-in Wizard dialog in the Win32 API). Other than including a header file from the WiX sources, no code from WiX was used.
