Newbie Question - features

Postby Bo Andersen » Thu Aug 16, 2007 3:56 am

Hi all,

Can anyone share thoughts on best ways to accomplish this...

I need to install a web-app
My setup includes a small webserver but if user has IIS installed I need to give a choice between installing to IIS or to the included webserver.

Thought of using the features-feature (can you say that?), but that gives me the choice of none or both as well as one or the other.. So it's a mutually exclusive thing...

Should I just create a new dialog to ask and present this only if IIS is installed?

Thanks

Bo

That's what I would do. I would check for the presence of IIS. If it is installed, I would ask the user, (with a custom dialog), whether to include the Web-App in IIS or install the Web server included in your installer.
