[Vtigercrm-developers] Executing post install

[srihari Tp]

Hi Prasad,

        There is no Vtlib event handler *preinstall*. Can you please let us
know in which scenario you needed this event , if the scenario is generic
then we can request for the api.

       Let us know your valuable feedback.

Regards,
Srihari,
vtiger team.
