Detect if DIFx scheduled a reboot

Hi,

I have a quite complex installation including device driver installation and
firmware update for the device (access through the driver).

I am currently switching to the DIFx and it works for the device driver
installation part.

Sometimes, DIFx detects that a reboot needs to be performed to make the
driver image active. In this case, it calls "ScheduleReboot".

Is there a way to detect that DIFx (or any other CA) issued a
"ScheduleReboot", intercept it by issuing "ForceReboot" by myself and let the
installer continue after reboot, so the firmware updater can be run, too, now
having a working driver image?

Thanks for any input on that topic,
Doc

p.s.: I posted this in .MSI, but it is more a DIFx issue so forgive me my
cross post.

This might actually be an MSI question more than a DIFx question. However,
you would need to provide more information about how you are using DIFx in
your MSI?
