hey all

I modelled my custom bootstrapper based on a example found on the web.
Namely

http://bryanpjohnston.com/2012/09/28/custom-wix-managed-bootstrapper-application/

The example uses Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.dll as a PayLoad. Is
this really needed for a managed boostrapper ? The WIX managed boostrapper
itself doesn't seem to use it in Payload.

Thanks
Raj

No, as you noted WiX doesn't need it.
