Create a Log file

Hello,

Want to create a log file, which includes the features based on the components in the features being installed. If the condition of the component is false and that particular component is not installed then the log file should not have the feature name included in it.

Any suggestions on this.

REgards,
MS

why do you want to create a bespoke log file?

Thanks for the Reply.

Im into Packaging and want to create a log or txt file, where it shows the features being installed based on the license keys. So that helpdesk can detect the installer is installed which all features on their machine have not selected which features.

You can use the WindowsInstaller.Installer object model in script to interrogate installations after the event.

The WI SDK includes some sample scripts which will provide some clues about how to use the various methods.

I have tried it but not much help. I couldnt write the exact query. If you have got any idea or brief about the query it would be great help for me.

Your original question appears confusing.
Please re-phrase it.
Are you done with creating your MSI and want logging to be enabled when its deployed??
Are you coding any script and want the script to log its actions?
