Windows Home Server Add-in (WHS)

Post by VikingCoder »

Is it possible to add an arbitrary property to the MSI properties table? I need WHSLogo=1 for Windows Home Server to recognize my MSI as a valid add-in.

See: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb626019.aspx

Thanks
Michael

You can do this with an InstallAware plug-in, or just edit the MSI file after building using Orca.

For automated builds, of course, it might make more sense to just use a plug-in - plug-ins have access to the MSI tables that InstallAware generates.
