How to copy some files and register .ax?

Nabukodonosor · 22nd January 2006, 22:45

Hi there. I a newbie in all this. What I want is to extract some Dll files in some folder in Program Files (INSTDIR). I did this. Next what i want is to ectract some other files to C:\some folder\folder 2\. I don't know how to do that.
Also, some of those files are .ax files, and need to be registered. In "real life" these files register file called regsvr32.exe. How to manage to do this? tnx

1. Use the SetOutPath command to set your working directory and then a File command to extract the file into that directory. Alternatively, you can use the /oname switch on the File command to specify an output directory, but since this option must be used with each file, I prefer to use the former.

2. Use the RegDLL command to register files. It works the same as RegSvr32.

More information about both commands is in your NSIS user's guide. You can also find working examples in your NSIS Examples folder included with the NSIS install.

OK, i made it and it works! I also did the Uninstall routine with the UnRegDll command. Thanks a lot once again.
