Display the correct "space required" by the installer.
Hi,

I have an installer which packages 3 other MSIs inside it. On running the installer, I execute these constituent MSIs using ExecWait 'msiexec.exe…’

Now the problem is that the “space required” is always shown as 0.0 kb on the directory page. Is there some way I can get NSIS to compute the correct space required in this particular scenario?


Thanks,
SB

The command reference is your friend.

You have to find out how much space each package takes, and then call SectionSetSize:
