Check for .NET462

[Christobal25]

Hey,
when I wan´t to check if .NET462 is installed it is not possible.

project.SetNetFxPrerequisite("NETFRAMEWORK462='#1'", "Please install .NET 4.6.2 first");

this throws an Exception

error LGHT0094: Unresolved reference to symbol 'Property:NETFRAMEWORK462'

WixToolset v.3.11+ is installed

Thanks Christobal25

I am guessing that this property is not a pat of WiXNetFxExtension. This is the fragment of the Wix# XML documentation:

Binds the LaunchCondition to the version condition based on WiXNetFxExtension properties. 
The typical conditions are:
NETFRAMEWORK20='#1'
NETFRAMEWORK40FULL='#1'
NETFRAMEWORK35='#1'
NETFRAMEWORK30_SP_LEVEL and NOT NETFRAMEWORK30_SP_LEVEL='#0'
...
The full list of names and values can be found here http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/customactions/wixnetfxextension.html 

If you indeed want to use the property with that name you will need either to create and initialize it by yourself or include the extension that does it for you.

A very quick look to the link from the doc reviled that WIX_IS_NETFRAMEWORK_462_OR_LATER_INSTALLED might be what you need. But you will need to test it...

Hey,
thanks for the fast answer.

Sorry for replying to a closed question, but just so you're aware: now you can use the new Conditions for this instead, e.g. Condition.Net462_Installed.
