Several Instdir

Hello all,

I'm french, sorry for my poor english.

So, I want to create an installer wich can copy 2 files in differents directory if it's find them.

I'm a newbie with NSIS, i can't see how i can made it!


Thanks for your help guys.

Download HM NIS Edit and use the Script Wizard :] That'll do it for you really fast !

Sorry but HM NIS Edit can't install the files in several directories.

For example : I want to copy 2 files in c:\test ant the same files in c:\test2

We had a similar problem for our installer. The solution was to create a custom page allowing the user to specify the directories.

Use can use the NSIS plug-in for Eclipse to do this. It's very good.

Use the SetOutPath function inside a Section to have this file in two places. For example:

Section
  DetailPrint "Section 1"
  SetOutPath "D:\test1"
  File test1.txt
SectionEnd
Section
  DetailPrint "Section 2"
  SetOutPath "D:\test2"
  File test1.txt
SectionEnd 

You could have this in one Section if you wanted. This will put "test1.txt" in D:\test1\ and D:\test2\.

Hope that helps.

Ok, that's great but ...

... Now I want copy test1.txt in D:\test1 only if D:\test1 exist and test1.txt in D:\test2 only if D:\test2 exist.

thanks

The function IfFileExists

... will do what you need.

Look it up in the help index for its parameters.

Good! Thank You for your help!
