Download Using Mirrors

Description

Requires: NSISdl Plugin.

Function to download files from internet with mirrors support. Needs internet connection to be established first.

Function Call

InitPluginsDir ; Initialize $PLUGINSDIR (only if you didn't do it before)
Push "[Path\]FileName.ext" ; File to be renamed
Push $0
GetFunctionAddress $0 "CustomFunction" ; Custom function name
Exch $0
Call NSISDownload
Pop $0 ; Result (last error, "cancel", "success" or "download incompleted")

How to use Callback Function

  • You have first to push "Stop" or the mirror site and then push the timeout or nothing. You have to put StrCmp commands to assign each try to the address to download (like the first one to http://www.mysite.com/file.zip and the second one to ftp://ftp.mysite.com/file.zip) and the last try has to contain the "Stop" push to make the function return.
  • Do not push values on the stack without poping them later unless it's the return value.
  • You can use any variables, but the $R0 - $R5 contains function results.
  • See an example to "How to use callback function"
