Text File Creation problem in custom code action
Hi,
I used the following code to create text file during the preinstall state,
String fileSep = File.separator;
svFile = proxy.substitute("$INSTALL_LOG_DESTINATION$") + fileSep + proxy.substitute("$PRODUCT_NAME$")+ "_inst.log";
objFile = new File("svFile");
if(!objFile.exists())
{
objFile.createNewFile();
}
I run this script using Java it's working fine , but same code is not working during the preinstall scenario.
Please help.

The installation log is created only when the installation has finished.

I wrote a little custom code to log from my java methods, the output goes directly into the installer log.
public static void doLog(InstallerProxy ip, String header, String text) {
CustomError error = (CustomError)ip.getService(CustomError.class);
error.setLogDescription(header);
error.appendMessage(text);
error.log();
}

CustomError error = (CustomError)ip.getService(CustomError.class);
error.setLogDescription(header);
error.appendMessage(text);
error.log();
}
