SectionIn 1 2 RO

Hi folks,

I have a problem with useing the .onSelChange Function. all I want is to force the User to Install Internet Explorer 6 when its below Version 5.5.
So I got the GetIEVersion Function for it and everything works gerat instead of pasteing the 'RO' Parameter to the SectionIn Command within my Section Internet_Explorer.

Can somebody please give me an idea how this works?

regards,
Simon

See Include\Sections.nsh.

Use the SetSectionFlag macro with SF_RO.

your Post helped me quite a lot on one hand, but I think I have a kind of blocation to find a way to drop the SF_RO Bit to the Section Flag. Maybe you can have a look what I`ve done:

Function checkIE
Push $R1
Push $R2
Call GetIEFullVersion
Pop $7
IntCmp $7 "554134" IEokay IEInstall IEokay
IEInstall:
SectionGetFlags section_Internet_Explorer $R1
IntOp $R2 $R1 & ${SF_RO}
SectionSetFlags section_Internet_Explorer ${SF_RO}
IEokay:
Pop $R1
Pop $R2
FunctionEnd

(dont wonder about the IE Version number, I cur out the dots and the last segment)

As I said, there is an easy macro that adds a flag: SetSectionFlag.

I see, in Sections.nsh are all Functionalities I need. I there a Example somewhere how to use them? wiht my 20b4 Version nothing happend when I do something like:

!insertmacro SetSectionFlag section_Internet_Explorer ${SF_RO}

I call it in .onInit to check the IE Version before and to set the section_Internet_Explorer RO when its to old. But theres no effect anyway.

Assuming section_Internet_Explorer is what you've used in the Section line, it is a define. It should therefore be used as ${section_Internet_Explorer}. The way you've used it, it will be translated to 0 because it contains no digits. See Examples\one-section.nsi for an example.

My Goodness! Its that easy! That hint was a real lifesaver! NSIS rules! I cant imagine I just forgot to take section identifier as variable, unbeliveable. Many many thanks kichik and best regards to this great board at all!
