ComponentSearch element (Util extension)

Describes a component search.

Attributes

After

string

Id of the search that this one should come after.

Condition

string

Condition for evaluating the search. If this evaluates to false, the search is not executed at all.

Guid

string required

Component to search for.

Id

string

Id of the search for ordering and dependency.

ProductCode

string

Optional ProductCode to determine if the component is installed.

Result

Rather than saving the matching key path into the variable, a ComponentSearch can save an attribute of the component instead. This attribute’s value must be one of the following:

  • directory: Saves the parent directory for the component’s file key path; other types of key path are returned unmodified.
  • keyPath: Saves the key path of the component if installed. This is the default.
  • state: Saves the state of the component: absent (2), locally installed (3), will run from source (4), or installed in default location (either local or from source) (5)

Variable

string required

Name of the variable in which to place the result of the search.
