Create custom ${IF}... Test

[xbarns]

Hi all,

i hope my headline is somewhere in the vincinity of being correct of what i will describe now, if not i hope you can still help me

I want to create my own "string" that i can use with the ${IF}..${ENDIF} clause. For example with logiclib you can use

code:


${IF} ${silent}

  #do stuff

${ENDIF}

i want to create my own ${silent}, in my case it should be:

code:


${IF} $InstallPartOfApplication = 1 

  #do stuff

${ENDIF}

so "$InstallPartOfApplication = 1" should become ${InstallPartOfApplication)

code:


${IF} ${InstallPartOfApplication)

  #do stuff

${ENDIF}

now if $InstallPartOfApplication = 1 or not would be defined from a license file that is read during the beginning of the installation.

I hope (lots of hoping in this one) i could post my question understandable, and somebody can help me.

Btw. i looked at examples in the x64.nsh, which frankly i do not understand also looking at the silent part of logiclib.nsh did not bring me any step ahead i still wonder how _silent can be referenced from the !define below it....


!macro _Silent _a _b _t _f
IfSilent `${_t}` `${_f}`
!macroend
!define Silent `"" Silent ""`

Thanks a lot.
