CopyFiles not copying in sub dirs

I am trying to copy all zips in all sub directories. I am using:

code:


CopyFiles "$EXEDIR\*.zip" "$INSTDIR\"

Why isn't it working?
Also, I want to include skinning with Wansis as optional so someone can download the skinning pack, unzip it and skin away. How would I do this?

You're telling it to copy all zip files in $EXEDIR to the install directory; your command doesn't mention subdirectories. Just as CopyFiles "$EXEDIR\hello.txt" "$INSTDIR\" won't try and find hello.txt in any subdirectories in $EXEDIR.

You want to use something like the Locate function, and put a CopyFiles in the callback.

code:
Name "Output"

OutFile "Output.exe"



!include "FileFunc.nsh"

!insertmacro Locate



Section

	StrCpy $R0 "C:\ftp"   ;Directory copy from

	StrCpy $R1 "C:\ftp2"  ;Directory copy into

	StrCpy $R2 "*.zip"    ;Wildcard

	StrLen $R3 $R0

	CopyFiles /SILENT '$R0\$R2' '$R1'



	${Locate} "$R0" "/L=D" "LocateCallback"



	IfErrors 0 +2

	MessageBox MB_OK 'error'

SectionEnd



Function LocateCallback

	StrCpy $1 $R8 '' $R3

	CreateDirectory '$R1$1\$R7'

	CopyFiles /SILENT '$R9\$R2' '$R1$1\$R7'



	Push $0

FunctionEnd

Thanks Instructor, but I just want it to put all in the same directory. What do I change?

I changed:

code:


CopyFiles /SILENT '$R9\$R2' '$R1$1\$R7'

code:


CopyFiles /SILENT '$R9\$R2' '$INSTDIR'
