WiX: Adding summary dialog displaying installed features

Question

I would like to display to the users a summary page at the end of the installation that shows what features were installed. The ADDLOCAL property contains this information, but I cannot figure out how to display its value on a dialog. Adding it as the Text property of a Control does not work.

<!-- Does not display anything -->
<Control Id="InstalledFeaturesText" Type="Text" ... Text="[ADDLOCAL]" />

Thanks.

Add following line to your wix source code

<SetProperty Id="FEATURELIST" Value="[ADDLOCAL]" After="CostFinalize"/>

And use FEATURELIST property to get list of all installed feture. That’s really it. :)

This is so because it appears that the 'ADDLOCAL' becomes undefined after completion of all install sequence.
