What's your idea?

Recently Edwin Young posted on wix-users the below snippet. This seems like an easy put and great idea for a custom action project type as alternative option for DTF.

https://github.com/edyoung/net7ca

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using WixToolset.Dtf.WindowsInstaller;

namespace CustomAction;
public class Class1
{
[UnmanagedCallersOnly(EntryPoint = "CustomAction2")]
public static uint CustomAction2(IntPtr handle)
{
using Session session = Session.FromHandle(handle, false);

    session.Log("Custom Action 2 Called");
    return 0;
}

}

This is an interesting scenario and have a backlog item to investigate.

Does it work? Is it safe to try to use this?

It looks like the proof of concept does not work: edyoung/net7ca#1 (comment)
