Pointers

Hey,

Is it possible to let somehow two variables point to the same memory (like in normal C/C++)?

Thanks 🙂

no

(You can allocate "raw" memory with the system plugin, it also supports pointers and whatnot, but "only" the system plugin can work with those buffers anyway)

@ChocJunkie: you should rather explain what you're trying to achieve

I've got the following construction:

!macro myMacro _macroParam

   StrCpy $0 "${_macroParam}"

   Call myFunc

!macroEnd



Function myFunc

   StrCpy $0 "new value"

   ${If} ...

     Reboot

   ${Else}

     ...

   ${EndIf}

FunctionEnd

Instead of using StrCpy $0 "${macroParam}" I would like to assign $0 to the memory of the variables passed as _macroParam.
Yes, I could use StrCpy ${macroParam} "$0" as last command inside the macro, but if Reboot will be called, the value of _macroParam will not be changed. (I know, there seems to be no sense in changing a variable value if the system will be rebootet. But I need it. 😉)

Thanks 🙂
