Invoke COM object?

Postby MarkRichards » Tue May 09, 2006 1:03 pm

Is there any support for invoking a COM object from within InstallAware, like you can from InstallShield (with CoGetObject)?

Please let me know if there's an equivalent, and thanks.

No, you can invoke Win32 DLLs, write custom plug-ins, run programs, but not COM objects. Of course you could just write a custom dll or plugin or even an EXE to invoke the COM object for you.
