ExLicensePage plug-in

Author: pkp (talk, contrib)

Note: This plug-in requires the MFC runtime and is not really compatible with the NSIS page system. For other solutions and more info, check this forum topic.

Description

Deprecated: NSIS 2.0 beta 4 - Added support for all pages in both installer and uninstaller and support for multiple uses of the same page.

This is some quick and dirty code to implement an extra license file page.

How To Use

ExLicensePage::showPage "license.txt"

The program is not really customizable at this point, if you like it and want a few extra features, let me know and I'll flesh it out more. ExLicensePage expects to find the file "license.txt" in the same directory the dll is located. (plug-ins dir usually). ExLicensePage also implements cancel strangely, due to the fact that I cannot figure out a proper way of staying on the current page if cancel is pressed along with a no, it sends a message to the parent window forcing it back to the previous page.

Usage

ReserveFile "SNLicense.txt"
Page custom ExLicense
 
Function ExLicense
  ExLicensePage::showPage "SNLicense.txt"
FunctionEnd
 
Function .onInit 
  !insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_EXTRACT "SNLicense.txt"
  ;Without Modern UI: File /oname=$PLUGINSDIR\SNLicense.txt SNLicense.txt
FunctionEnd

Source Included, do what you want with it.
