Timestamp during pre-install

Hi,

I am wondering if it's possible to get the timestamp during pre-install.

I am trying to get a dynamic install folder by applying the timestap to the default install folder.

Thanks.

Thanks, SunnyBoy.

I checked out the community link you were referring to. However, I don't think it resolved my issue.

I can certainly write a custom code to get the timestamp, which I already did in my current project.

My issue is that I can only do it during the Install phase of the IA project, but I don't know how to do it at Pre-Install phase. At Pre-Install time, Java itself may not be able for me to use.

Please advise.

Thanks.

You can certainly execute Custom code during pre-install phase and Java also will be available for sure.
If java is not available then your installer UI it self will be shown to the user.
