How can I make setup path only select drivers?

I only want install to path example " c:\abc " or "d:\abc" or "e:\abc" or "f:\abc".

You mean drives not drivers right?

You can use this function to retrieve a list of hard drives on the system.

You could write the list to an InstallOptions list box control, or use my PopupListBox/EmbeddedLists plugins to display list boxes (both on the Wiki).

This is probably 'root install only' situation. You can set default folder as "c:$\abc", add 'root install only' item to existing page controls or using Marquee plug-in and check resulting $INSTDIR in the dirpage leave function (or .onVerifyInstDir function, but this may looks crazy) for root folder and blank spaces.

I only want install to path example " c:\abc " or "d:\abc" or "e:\abc" or "f:\abc".

The following example should install on 'X:\abc'.
* X = the root of the system drive (the drive where the operation system is installed).

name 'test abc dir'

outfile 'test.exe'

showinstdetails show



page directory 

page instfiles verify_abc



function .onInit

strcpy '$R0' '$SYSDIR' 3

strcpy '$INSTDIR' '$R0abc'

functionend



section -

Setoutpath '$INSTDIR'

# do what you have to do

Setoutpath '$INSTDIR\MyAPP'

# do what you have to do

Setoutpath '$INSTDIR\So Long'

# do what you have to do

sectionend



function verify_abc

strcpy '$R0' '$SYSDIR' 3

strcmp '$R0abc' '$INSTDIR' +3 +1

strcpy '$INSTDIR' '$R0abc'

messagebox mb_ok 'reseting output directory to $R0abc'

functionend

To get the root drive, just do:

StrCpy $R0 $SYSDIR 1

$R0 == "C" or "D" etc

thanks!

Cant U give .nis full example ?

The above example is a full working one. Just copy/paste to editor's window and test it. If you like a more scriptable look :-) then define the default dir !define DEFAULT_DIR 'abc' and change the code according to the define ($R0abc becomes ${DEFAULT_DIR}. Just remember that, this example detects the system drive, if you plan to install on others, you should try GetDrives (Nsis Users Manual E.1.5 GetDrives).
