How to use nsdialogs REMOVE or REPAIR feature in NSIS script? - nsis

My installer working fine without nsdialogs, If i add nsdialogs its not working good.I can't call nsdialogs in correct place.where i need to call nsdialogs?
Var hwnd
Var Dialog
Page custom checkinstall
Page custom nsDialogsPage
.

Function .onInit
!define MUI_LANGDLL_ALWAYSSHOW
!insertmacro MUI_LANGDLL_DISPLAY

FunctionEnd
Function nsDialogsPage
nsDialogs::Create 1018
Pop $Dialog
${If} $Dialog == error
Abort
${EndIf}

Pop $hwnd
${NSD_AddStyle} $hwnd ${WS_GROUP}
${NSD_OnClick} $hwnd Repair
${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 0 25u 100% 56u "Remove"
Pop $hwnd
${NSD_OnClick} $hwnd Remove
nsDialogs::Show
FunctionEnd
I can not call nsdialogs correctly. checkinstall function not working at all.I need a correct solution for that.

You are writing the uninstall command to the registry with quotes (correct) but you are not removing the quotes when reading the value so the file exists test is always going to be false.
You should remove the quotes from commands you read from the registry:
Function GetAppFromCommand
Exch $1
Push $2
Push $3
StrCpy $3 ""
StrCpy $2 $1 1
StrCmp $2 '"' qloop sloop
sloop:
StrCpy $2 $1 1 $3
IntOp $3 $3 + 1
StrCmp $2 "" +2
StrCmp $2 ' ' 0 sloop
IntOp $3 $3 - 1
Goto done
qloop:
StrCmp $3 "" 0 +2
StrCpy $1 $1 "" 1 ; Remove initial quote
IntOp $3 $3 + 1
StrCpy $2 $1 1 $3
StrCmp $2 "" +2
StrCmp $2 '"' 0 qloop
done:
StrCpy $1 $1 $3
Pop $3
Pop $2
Exch $1
FunctionEnd
!macro GetAppFromCommand cmd outvar
Push `${cmd}`
Call GetAppFromCommand
Pop ${outvar}
!macroend
Function checkinstall
ReadRegStr $R0 HKLM \
"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\${PRODUCT_NAME}" \
"UninstallString"
!insertmacro GetAppFromCommand $R0 $R0
IfFileExists $R0 +1 NotInstalled
Call nsDialogsPage

Disable empty SectionGroup (NSIS)

In my script I have the conditional header inside a SectionGroup where sections are created at compile time.
If sections are not created SectionGroup exists and not checkable. How can I disable it if sections are not exist?
Set the name to empty to hide a section and/or group.

NSIS window disappear

I have tried a lot of possibility with this code but it doesn't work. I need to check a VPN connection. If I run the code firs time it works, but if I don't restart the program and push the button secondly then the program just disappear. Any idea how to fix it? thanks.

Callbacks are tricky to get right and the plug-in is a little buggy. Also, you should not use relative jumps to jump over macros like ${ExitDo}!

Set run-time cursor position in directory page dialog box - NSIS

I want to add at the end of the path the installation folder name of my App. I do it successfully after clicking the Browse button but, after many tentatives, I couldn't do it if I modify the text directly in the textbox.
Function .onVerifyInstDir
Push $0
FindWindow $0 "#32770" "" $HWNDPARENT
GetDlgItem $0 $0 0x3FB
;in alternative for MUI >2.0 I could use directly $mui.DirectoryPage.Directory. Is it right?
;does path end with "\MyApp"?
StrLen $R1 "\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
StrCpy $R0 $INSTDIR "" -$R1
StrCmp $R0 "\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}" +2
;add "\MyApp" after browse button clicking (OK)
StrCpy $INSTDIR "$INSTDIR\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
;add "\MyApp" after typing directly into the textbox but the cursor position reset to the first character. Tried to solve saving the current cursor position and then reapply it (NOK)
SendMessage $0 ${EM_GETSEL} null $1
SendMessage $0 ${WM_SETTEXT} 0 "STR:$INSTDIR"
SendMessage $0 ${EM_SETSEL} $1 $1
FunctionEnd
I don't succeed of mantain the cursor where I'm modifying the path string and it reset always to the first char.
In a previous phase of install process I initialise the Install path as follow
StrCpy $INSTDIR "$APPDATA\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
NSIS is supposed to do this for you already.
From the docs:
... the part of this string following the last \ will be used if the user selects 'browse', and may be appended back on to the string at install time (to disable this, end the directory with a \ (which will require the entire parameter to be enclosed with quotes). If this doesn't make any sense, play around with the browse button a bit.
Meaning,
InstallDir "$ProgramFiles\MyApp"
is not the same as
InstallDir "$ProgramFiles\MyApp\"
Setting the text in .onVerifyInstDir is not officially supported but this code somewhat works:
!define APP_FOLDER_NAME MyApp
Page Directory
Page InstFiles
!include WinMessages.nsh
!include LogicLib.nsh
Function .onInit
StrCpy $INSTDIR "$APPDATA\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
FunctionEnd
Var InOnVerifyInstDir
Var SeenModal
Function .onVerifyInstDir
${IfThen} $InOnVerifyInstDir <> 0 ${|} Return ${|} ; Don't recurse into .onVerifyInstDir
!if ${MUI_SYSVERSION} >= 2.0
StrCpy $0 $mui.DirectoryPage.Directory
!else
FindWindow $0 "#32770" "" $hWndParent
GetDlgItem $0 $0 0x3FB
!endif
System::Call 'USER32::GetActiveWindow()p.r2'
System::Call 'USER32::GetFocus()p.r1'
${If} $1 P<> $0
${If} $hWndParent P<> $2
StrCpy $SeenModal 1
Return
${EndIf}
${If} $SeenModal = 0
Return
${EndIf}
${EndIf}
StrCpy $SeenModal ""
;does path end with "\MyApp"?
StrLen $R1 "\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
StrCpy $R0 $INSTDIR "" -$R1
${If} $R0 != "\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
StrCpy $InOnVerifyInstDir 1
StrCpy $INSTDIR "$INSTDIR\${APP_FOLDER_NAME}"
SendMessage $0 ${EM_GETSEL} "" "" $1
IntOp $1 $1 >> 16 ; shift hiword
IntOp $1 $1 & 0xffff ; mask possible sign bit
SendMessage $0 ${WM_SETTEXT} 0 "STR:$INSTDIR"
SendMessage $0 ${EM_SETSEL} $1 $1
StrCpy $InOnVerifyInstDir 0
${EndIf}
FunctionEnd
but I would still recommend just using InstallDir.

nsis refresh environment during setup

During my setup i install redistributables. After installing my program i want to execute the program during the setup. For that the redistributables are needed. But the environment is not refreshed during setup, so i can't start the program. Can i refresh the environtment during the setup, or reread the environment? Or read the system environment which has changed after the redistributable installation?
I need the environment changes made during the installation of the redistributables during the setup.
Thanks for your help.
I had your same issue, that I solved with a workaround, but I came across this solution and I would like to share with you.
This should reload environment variables during setup:

NSIS example of auto-update the installer itself?

I am looking for a NSIS example that is able to update itself with the latest version of the installer.
The logic is simple: check if the publish URL is newer than the current executable and download it and recall itself with the same parameters.
Mainly that's would me something like "wget --timestamp URL" but so far I wasn't able to find any NSIS file download extension that is able to download a file only if is newer.
INetC::head will grab just the HTTP headers from the server but IMHO downloading a .ini file with version info from the server is better...
Here's something I wrote that might be of help to you. I have not tested this thoroughly but it did work on the first couple tests I ran. This is just an example I threw together for a project I'm working on. Hope it's of use to you. =)
