Description

Plug-in adds a bit of animation to progress bar during big file extraction. If SetCompress is off and extract percentage not appears above progress bar, plug-in adds percent value to this control. If SetCompress is on and file name is not defined, plug-in takes percentage for progress bar moves from installer dialog. GetFileSize sample added to package for file size parameter automation at the compile time.

Syntax

"track" DLL function

fsp::track /NOUNLOAD [/FN=FILE_NAME]  [/FS=FILE_SIZE] [/INT=INTERVAL] [/PBF=FINAL_POS]

tracks file extraction process.

FN

FILE_NAME is a target file name. If not defined, plug-in attempts to extract '% done' value from installer dialog (works with 'SetCompress on' only).

FS

FILE_SIZE is a total (extracted) file size. Use gfs sample to automate this. Requires /FN defined.

INT

INTERVAL is time interval of file size checkouts, ms. Default is 500.

PBF

FINAL_POS is final position (percents of scale) of progress bar on extraction finish. Default is 100.

"stop" DLL function

fsp::stop

initiates thread to exit.

Example

No file name defined, SetCompress is on:

  SetOutPath "$PLUGINSDIR"
  Delete "vs6sp5.exe"
  fsp::track /nounload /pbf=95
  File "vs6sp5.exe"
  fsp::stop

SetCompress off mode animation :) :

!define FILENAME "vs6sp5.exe"
 
# file size extraction automation, adds FILESIZE definition
!system 'gfs.exe ${FILENAME}'
!include gfs.txt
