Thanks all. It seems using c++ for Custom action would be a good choice.
Currently in my C# code I am using functions like string.IsNullOrEmpty,
string.Format, ServiceController. Are these functions available in C++.

Hi Nir,
Thanks for the info. Does the CreateFolder / removes the main folder
where all my components will be installed. I should also be removing the
folder that could be created by the executable. ie consider apps and temp
inside the main folder. I tried:
RemoveFolder
myInstaller.msi /l*v out.txt PARAMETER=VALUE ...
I looked into other website, they gave information regarding GAC. I don't
know about them. If that is what is causing the problem, please do point me
in right direction.
Thanks,

I have written a C# Custom Action that is supposed to get the Values of
Properties passed to the installer and create some config file. Since the
C# Custom action was done, my installer depends upon .Net too. I want to
avoid this dependency, thus I am opting to write the Custom action in C++.

(crashes, access violations, etc.) if I don't. This is true when running
in VS2010 and VS2013 compilers.

Hi Nir, The Thing is that I do have the MSM for Visual Studio 2010 but my
project uses Openssl, built using VS 2008. I don't have the MSM for 2008.
So that was the issue of installing VCRedist.

@Nir Bar, I tried to Use Remove property instead of Installed. But the
Custom Action didn't Run when the Remove Property was set.
@Rob I tried to use util:RemoveFolderEx based on this link =

without using Registry
@Nir, Yep I figured that out. I used REMOVE~=ALL based on Rob's answer

I need to Remove Folders as well. RemoveFile only works to delete the File,
I think so. The executable could create Folder within folder and files too.

I have created two custom actions that does the following jobs:
1. Create a file based on the property passed to the installer. eg
msiexec /i installer.msi /l*v out.txt IPADDRESS=192.168.2.2.08
The custom action will create a file that will contain the data as:
{
ip:192.168.2.208
}
2. Another
