location of product during uninstallation

[sdasarath]

Hi,

Before unistalltion i need to verify few things
one of them being if the product is running shut it down or abort uninstallation.

How can i get the product path during uninstallation when i have multiple installations .

This is for multiplatform 11.5

You could look into the registry. There is a a string field, "InstallLocation" under the uninstall of the product. Another way would be to have you other installations put a registry entry to where they are installing themselves. There are many ways to do it. The question is, how you want to do it.

For ISMP, you could use the RegistryService interface to query the ISMP registry (not the Windows registry) for installed locations; using the getSoftwareObjects method with the product's UUID, and then getInstallLocation with each instance that's returned...
