1)My msi file has a custom action which calls a function in a dll. I now feel that
there might be some problem with the function which is called by the custom action. The code for the dll has been written in C++. I now want to step through the code in visual studio or visual studio .net when the custom action is being called. The dll is part of the binary table and is not installed with the product. I have been told that it is not possible to step through the code in this case when the dll has not been installed with the product. I
Now assuming that the dll is installed with the product, i want to know the procedure for stepping through the dll code when the msi file is run i.e when the function is called in the installer i.e i need the visual studio or the visual studio.net debugger to popup at the point where i have set the breakpoint.
If someone knows how to do this or if there are any good links on doing this,
please let me know.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
