使用 NSIS 我可以在 MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY 页面之间共享值吗？

Question

I have two MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY pages. The first stores the entered data to the default, $INSTDIR. What I would like to do is copy the value in $INSTDIR to the defined var $DataDir so that before the second directory page is displayed, $DataDir becomes $INSTDIR\\Data. When the second page is displayed I would like the default value to be $INSTDIR\\Data.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

What are you trying to achieve?

If you want to install some files into two separate locations use MUI_PAGE_DIRECTORY and custom nsDialogs page (with browse folder button) so user can pick up two directories.

If your location is always $INSTDIR and second is somewhere inside it ($INSTDIR\\some\\data\\path) then you only need to append your inside path to $INSTDIR - there is no need to show dialog twice and select path twice.
