how can i read from the log file ie the stderr.log or stdout.log

hi,
i want to read from the stderr.log or stdout.log file while the installer is installing .
I want to know as the stdout.log and stderr.log are getting updated,i want to know how to read from those log files and display on the panels.
Should i stop the installation process there or do something other than that.

And one more thing where is the installation log file before the installation is completed.

Before installation is complete, the installation log file is stored in memory only, and is committed to the disk only once the installer has been closed.

hi,
i want to know how i can read from the log file and display the messages in the panel.
i have a simple doubt in this that how can i know that the log file creation has been over as it keeps on updating .
Any sort of suggestion is awaited.
I want to display some of the information which keeps on logging while installing the installer.
james.
