#548 Command line options of generated installers

[Wolfgang Dautermann]

Hi,

NSIS generated installers should contain a command line option like "/h", "/help" or "/?" which informs the user about the possible command line options (e.g. /S /NCRC and /D).

And if I do a silent install (installer.exe /S) - there should be a way to select, which components should be installed (e.g. "/C 1,2,5" to install the first, second and fifth component or something similar). Currently one can only do the default installation silent, correct?

Best regards, Wolfgang

You can parse parameters on your own if you want to:

!include FileFunc.nsh
!include LogicLib.nsh
Function .onInit
${GetParameters} $0
ClearErrors
${GetOptions} $0 "/help" $1
${IfNot} ${Errors}
    MessageBox MB_ICONINFORMATION "Blah blah blah"
${EndIf}
FunctionEnd

Thank you, I will try that.
