any hint or examples? i searched for on google but i have not found good suggesition...

[fabian.rap.more]

maybe you should try a custom page in the installer and then you could write a config file to the install dir and while installing you could perforam a simple loop to remove all those directories

[mattia83]

ok, i'ill try, and if i want to show just simple popup that ask if the user want to remove the directory too, what should i do to do it?

[fabian.rap.more]

try a messagebox and if he/she clicks yes then remove it

[mattia83]

thx so much...i've found this:

code:
  Function un.onUninstSuccess

    MessageBox MB_ICONQUESTION|MB_YESNO|MB_DEFBUTTON2 "Remove directory?" IDYES +2

  FunctionEnd

but how can i do to call a function if the user pressed ok button?

[fabian.rap.more]

Call Function_Name

[mattia83]

i found this script:
check here
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Common_I...ponents_Choise
maybe it can be helpful if i want to add a check box to allow the user to delete some directories during uninstall process...but it's my first time with nsis and i have some problem to understand how it work, for example:
who's going to call the function .onSelChange?
What should i do to put the checkbox in my MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY? And above all, is it possible?
thx so much for your support.

[mattia83]

i did some test with this macro:

code:


Page custom a ;Custom page

!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_COMPONENTS

where "a" is my function to load field into the macro, but it is not that i'm looking for...i'd like to create a my personal page with a textfield and a checkbox, of course next and previous buttons too.
any hint?
thx

[fabian.rap.more]

to create a customised page try InstallOptions or nsDialogs. they are included with nsis and u can have a look at the examples in the examples directory
