Execute Command Line In WiX Script?

Question

How can I execute a command line from within a WiX script?

I want to dynamically generate a command line string and have it executed. I\'m not installing a file rel

Answer 1

What you probably want is something like this (observing quotes where necessary in the command):

The ExeCommand is where you want to put your command. Here I have notepad launching with a file. Some of the attributes will be different, depending on what your command does - particularly the Execute and Impersonate parameters. It would also be helpful to know what version of WiX you were using (the code above is v2).
