Why Don't The Examples Work?

mariocatch · 26th July 2010, 18:34

I'm following the examples at:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/
ie: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Search_for_text_in_file

And they don't even work when I compile them.

code:
Section

	Push $DESKTOP\MyFile.txt

	Push hello

	 Call FileSearch

	Pop $0 #Number of times found throughout

	Pop $1 #Number of lines found on

	 

	StrCmp $0 0 +2

	MessageBox MB_OK "$\"hello$\" was found in the file $0 times on $1 lines."

SectionEnd

Error: resolving install function "FileSearch" in unnamed install section (0)
Note: uninstall functions must begin with "un.", and install functions must not
Error - aborting creation process

Am I missing something? I've installed NSIS.

Have you tried including the file that contains FileSearch?

...or copying the function into your script?
