Hello there,
Want to disable logging of file transfer before the files get copied and then enable it again as soon as the files get copied. The goal is to only disable logging for files that get copied, not for registry settings or environment settings.

One way is to disable it in OnInstalling() procedure and then Enable it in OnInstalled() proc. This procedure works but is too tedious when you have a lot of components in the program.

Does anyone know of a better way?

How about disable logging in OnInstallingFiles() and then enable it in OnMoved() function? Will this work?   ???  What is the order of these predefined procedural calls? Where can I find that?

Thanks to all people on this Forum, Everyone of you make this forum succcessful. Esp the Gurus.

Just wrap Disable(LOGGING) & Enable(LOGGING) around ComponentTransferData() which is a member of the OnMoving event.  If need be, add this event to your Setup.rul through the drop-down lists on the toolbars.

Unfortunately this will also leave out an self-registrations from the log file.

To get around this, also wrap the previously mentioned call with Enable (SELFREGISTERBATCH) & Do(SELFREGISTRATIONPROCESS).  That way all of the self-registrations are queued.

However, make sure to call the latter Do command _AFTER_ the Enable(LOGGING) or else it defeats the purpose of doing al this!
