MSI Installer - customizing the installer

Question

Good people, first I need to know if it is possible in an MSI installer (I use the setup project itself you have in VS) to select which application I want to install.

For now I have an installer for each project of my solution, and now I want to centralize everything in one installer only, but I want this installer to have the option to select which of the applications I want to install.

So far I’m using a common MSI installer, but it installs all modules at once, not having the option to select which one I want to install.

Answer 1

You can use the Inno Setup along with the Istool

In it you can configure an xml with all the actions you want to do, even cascade installers. You in addition to being able to mount your installer on it, you will be able to put to run other installers after yours.
