Hi,

why do you need this? Might be that if you will explain it, we could provide you better solution. Note also that on 3rd it will not work.

Anyway you can try the RApaLsSession class to enumerate all installed applications(note that I did not test the code):

	
  	RApaLsSession ls;
	User::LeaveIfError(ls.Connect());
	CleanupClosePushL(ls);
	
	User::LeaveIfError(ls.GetAllApps()); 

	TInt err = KErrNone;
	TApaAppInfo appInfo;
	do
	{
		err = ls.GetNextApp(appInfo);
		if (KErrNone == err && appInfo.iCaption.Length())
		{	
			// appInfo.iUid.iUid, 
			// appInfo.iCaption, 
			// appInfo.iFullName.Ptr(), 
		}
 
	} while(KErrNone == err);
	
	CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(); // ls

AFAIK this code does not show the installed applications that don't have UI, i.e. contain only background programs or libraries.

Thank you very much for pay attetion to my problems,may be i donn't explain my problems clearly,

I just want to get the insallation name of my project only ,

for example ,my project's install name is "project1.sis " ,

so i want to write code to get " project1.sis ", my order is that :

to diffrent person wanting to install my programme ,i will give

him/her different installing name ,such as project1.sis project2

.sis project3.sis etc ....,by getting the installation name ,i

can kown who is using the project ,so i can set diffrent data

for them

thank you very much

Forget it. As I said - user can easily rename the SIS file before installing it and anyway you have no access to SIS file.
Consider using phone's IMEI or IMSI codes instead

thank you ,but
I know that on S60 2.0 ,the installing file such as prokect1.sis

is backuped in directory C:\system\install \ ,there ,has the

file having the same name as my installation files such as

project1.sis .but to S60 3.0 , i don't kown whether

C:\system\install \ has the same name file olso ,because

my project is download by wap (GPRS) ,so the user don't kown

the installation file name ,they only kown the appliaction's

name

You could do all the fancy stuff in 2.0, but not in 3.0.
When and how and why are you going to set the "different data"?

[wsh604]

thank you .
i do this , beacause in out country ,in diffrent area ,we want to
set diffrent data, or there will be collisions .

If by WHERE you mean country then it is easier to query the country code from the phone

[wsh604]

thank you .by where i mean under which directory i can get

my project's installation name ,such as myproject1.sis .

in our country ,some data may be sentive to diffrent area

peaples. so i have set some data basing on diffrent area

thank you

[rihoe]

Try to understand - YOU CAN NOT GET IT.

[wsh604]

may be there is another way ,as the user download the sis through web ,so after the user download , in which directory does the sis store ?

[rihoe]

Scan these folders.
_LIT(KPath1, "c:\\nokia\\installs\\");
_LIT(KPath2, "c:\\data\\installs\\");
_LIT(KPath3, "e:\\nokia\\installs\\");
_LIT(KPath4, "e:\\data\\installs\\");
_LIT(KPath5, "e:\\");
_LIT(KPath6, "c:\\system\\temp\\");
_LIT(KPath7, "e:\\system\\temp\\");

I made for my application a separate program that is started during installation. It scans through these folders and copies the SIS file for future use.

sis
