[NSIS] Custom radio-buttom INI page via Eclipse

Question

I'm using Eclipse's create InstallOptions menu to create a custom INI page with radio-buttons for repackaging the Blackberry Desktop installer.

There are 2 sections for each type: "Internet" and "Enterprise".

I need a user to select 1 of the 2 options and depending on their selection, the page will carry over the selection chosen in the custom page, jump to the INSTFILES page, and continue onto the end.

I couldn't find any concrete documentation on getting INI pages to load in the script (I'm probably searching incorrectly), and then pass data from one page to the next (according to fields I guess?)

Any help is appreciated. Even if it's to tell me I'm blind and can't read a doc (though a link would help :) )

Here's the INI code:

Answer 1

You could start by creating a global variable with Var IsEnterprise or something like that.

To get the actual page working, you would insert a page command somewhere between your existing MUI_PAGE macros

page EnterprisePageCreate EnterprisePageLeave

EnterprisePageCreate and EnterprisePageLeave should be nsis functions, the create function should create the page and the leave function should get the state from the radio buttons and save it in your global $IsEnterprise (You can find the info on how to do this in the InstallOptions readme and examples)

Then later on you could use $IsEnterprise in a section.

But since you already have a section called Enterprise, I would assume that you just want to toggle this section. If that is the case, there is no need to save the state in a var, you could toggle the sections "checkbox" with the macros in sections.nsh in the EnterprisePageLeave function.

You also mention that you want to jump to the InstFiles page, looking at the script you posted, I would just put the custom page before the components page and when Enterprise radio is on, turn on the section, otherwise, turn it off and make it read only.

On a unrelated note, just using RequestExecutionLevel admin is not enough, when UAC is off or < Vista, you need to use the UserInfo plugin to detect if the user is admin or not.

Answer 2

Ended up doing using nsDialogs. No GUI, but more control from a design standpoint it seems.

Got the Radio-button page to work fine, except that it shows the custom page with the 'License Agreement' Subcaption when the installer runs.
