Archive: Flags and Lang in plugins


Flags and Lang in plugins
Is there any way of getting "overwrite" and "date/time saving" flags in plugins?

And the language strings used by the installer in the moment of calling the plugin (nlf strings)? I wan't to use default strings in a plugin, without need of my own lang file.


1) What do you mean? Something else than SetOverwrite and SetDateSave?

2) Plugins have their own way of language setting. What is the problem?


1) Pass the values of SetOverwrite and SetDateSave to the plugin.
2) Get the nsis strings directly.

Sorry if you can`t understand me, my english is very poor.


I *think* the answer to both questions is no, NSIS doesn't expose those internal values in any way that I am aware of to plugins, only the variables accessible to the script can be seen (note that the script can't check what the overwrite flag is either, for example, again AFAIK)


Thanks Sunjammer.


That's right. It's not possible.


Yet ;)
