Remarks

You can specify a * anywhere in the Template value. Setup inserts a string in that location that has the following format.

YYYYMMDDHHMMSSxxx

where:

1.YYYY = Year

2.MM = Month

3.DD = Day

4.HH = Hour

5.MM = Minute

6.SS = Seconds

7.xxx = a unique string generated by Setup

Note:

The Logging element is used by Setup only if Setup finds the Config.xml file in the same folder as setup.exe, or if you specify the Config.xml file by using the Setup /config command-line option. If Setup uses the Config.xml file in the product folder, Setup uses the default logging options.

Example

<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="MyLog(*).txt"

/>

In the following example, Setup creates a log file every time that it installs the product. Setup uses unique file names such as the following:

%temp%\MyLog(20060428110717CFC).txt %temp%\MyLog(20060429113143C70).txt

OptionState element
