Summary: msi automation interface problem Product: Wine Version: 0.9.37. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-msi AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: johan.heikkila@gmail.com
I am using the latest Wine 0.9.37 (rpm by dag.wieers.com) on Redhat 9. I am trying to use the new Msi Automation interface. Unfortunately I cannot find any information on how to setup or use this. This is what I tried:
I installed wscript to enable vbscript. I have a vbscript that opens and parses some information from an msi file. This works fine on windows. In wine, however, the vbscript code runs fine, but as soon as I call the MSI Automation functions it stops:
wine wscript my_vbscript.vbs ....... fixme:msi:AutomationObject_GetIDsOfNames Unknown member L"OpenDatabase", clsid {000c1090-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
It looks like it cannot call the Automation Object, though my understanding was by looking at the developers mailing list that it was implemented. Is there something that is missing?
I asked about this on the user's list and was advised to post it as a bug.
