Problem finding a macro
Hey.

I posted a post about Ethereal previously. Ethereal has it's own script, however, when I tried to compile it and run it, it gave me this error:

!insertmacro: MUI_RESERVEFILE_INSTALLOPTIONS
!insertmacro: macro named "MUI_RESERVEFILE_INSTALLOPTIONS" not found!
Error in script "C:\ethereal-0.10.12\packaging\nsis\ethereal.nsi" on line 128 -- aborting creation process

Now, from there, I searched all the scripts on my harddrive looking for the macro "MUI_RESERVEFILE_INSTALLOPTIONS" and I found it in a file called System.nsh.

If I try removing the line of code at line 128, it gives me an error that it can't find a different macro.

Is there a way to get the compiler to look in other .nsh files to look for these macros?

Thanks for your time.

First you have to !include "MUI.nsh" (which should probably be at the top of the script), then use that macro.

That did it thanks.

!include "MUI.nsh" was there, but it wasn't at the top.
