I've the following code (taken from Use two/multiple selected directories from custom page in Files section):
[Code]
var
DirPage: TInputDirWizardPage;
function GetDir(Param: String): String;
begin
Result := DirPage.Values[StrToInt(Param)];
end;
procedure InitializeWizard;
var
S1, S2: String;
begin
S1 := SetupMessage(msgSelectDirDesc);
StringChangeEx(S1, '[name]', 'ProgramName', false);
S2 := SetupMessage(msgSelectDirLabel3);
StringChangeEx(S2, '[name]', 'ProgramName', false);
{ create a directory input page }
DirPage := CreateInputDirPage(
wpSelectDir, SetupMessage(msgWizardSelectDir), S1, S2, False, '');
{ add directory input page items }
DirPage.Add('Path to Apache:');
DirPage.Add('Path to PHP:');
DirPage.Add('Path to Server Files:');
{ assign default directories for the items from the previously stored data; if }
{ there are no data stored from the previous installation, use default folders }
{ of your choice }
DirPage.Values[0] := GetPreviousData('Directory1', 'C:\Apache');
DirPage.Values[1] := GetPreviousData('Directory2', 'C:\PHP');
DirPage.Values[2] := GetPreviousData('Directory3', 'C:\Apache\htdocs\Server Files');
end;
procedure RegisterPreviousData(PreviousDataKey: Integer);
begin
{ store chosen directories for the next run of the setup }
SetPreviousData(PreviousDataKey, 'Directory1', DirPage.Values[0]);
SetPreviousData(PreviousDataKey, 'Directory2', DirPage.Values[1]);
SetPreviousData(PreviousDataKey, 'Directory3', DirPage.Values[2]);
end;
I'd like to make this behave like the traditional folder select page, so when selecting a folder, Inno Setup should keep the default folder name unless manually overwritten by the user. I.e.: if I select the folder "C:\Program Files\"
it should keep the original folder like "C:\Program Files\PHP"
or "C:\Program Files\Apache"
. Is this possible?
To get the default behavior of Browse button on "Select Destination Location" (triggered by AppendDefaultDirName
directive), for Browse buttons on your custom page, set these parameters of CreateInputDirPage
:
AAppendDir
to True
ANewFolderName
to the "default folder name"The problem is, that this affects all input boxes/buttons. While you want to affect only the first input box/button (or you want a different ANewFolderName
for each box/button).
To modify a behavior of some box only, you have to reimplement their functionality from the scratch. Though the browse dialog functionality is not exposed. There's only BrowseForFolder
function, which is slightly different.
var
DirPage: TInputDirWizardPage;
procedure NormalBrowseClick(Sender: TObject);
var
Directory: string;
begin
Directory := DirPage.Values[TButton(Sender).Tag];
if BrowseForFolder(SetupMessage(msgWizardSelectDir), Directory, False) then
begin
DirPage.Values[TButton(Sender).Tag] := Directory;
end;
end;
procedure InitializeWizard();
begin
DirPage := CreateInputDirPage(
wpSelectDir, SetupMessage(msgWizardSelectDir), '', '', True, 'Apache');
{ add directory input page items }
DirPage.Add('Path to Apache:');
DirPage.Add('Path to PHP:');
DirPage.Add('Path to Server Files:');
DirPage.Buttons[1].Tag := 1;
DirPage.Buttons[1].OnClick := @NormalBrowseClick;
DirPage.Buttons[2].Tag := 2;
DirPage.Buttons[2].OnClick := @NormalBrowseClick;
{ assign default directories for the items from the previously stored data; if }
{ there are no data stored from the previous installation, use default folders }
{ of your choice }
DirPage.Values[0] := GetPreviousData('Directory1', 'C:\Apache');
DirPage.Values[1] := GetPreviousData('Directory2', 'C:\PHP');
DirPage.Values[2] := GetPreviousData('Directory3', 'C:\Apache\htdocs\Server Files');
end;
To get the exact behaviour with the same "browse" dialog, you can hack it be invoking a functionality of the hidden "Select Destination Location" page or of another hidden TInputDirWizardPage
with different settings of AAppendDir
:
var
DirPage: TInputDirWizardPage;
HiddenPage: TInputDirWizardPage;
procedure AppendDirBrowseClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
HiddenPage.Values[0] := DirPage.Values[0];
HiddenPage.Buttons[0].OnClick(HiddenPage.Buttons[0]);
DirPage.Values[0] := HiddenPage.Values[0];
end;
function SkipPage(Sender: TWizardPage): Boolean;
begin
Result := True;
end;
procedure InitializeWizard();
begin
DirPage := CreateInputDirPage(
wpSelectDir, SetupMessage(msgWizardSelectDir), '', '', False, '');
DirPage.Add('Path to Apache:');
DirPage.Add('Path to PHP:');
DirPage.Add('Path to Server Files:');
{ assign default directories for the items from the previously stored data; if }
{ there are no data stored from the previous installation, use default folders }
{ of your choice }
DirPage.Values[0] := GetPreviousData('Directory1', 'C:\Apache');
DirPage.Values[1] := GetPreviousData('Directory2', 'C:\PHP');
DirPage.Values[2] := GetPreviousData('Directory3', 'C:\Apache\htdocs\Server Files');
DirPage.Buttons[0].OnClick := @AppendDirBrowseClick;
HiddenPage := CreateInputDirPage(
wpSelectDir, SetupMessage(msgWizardSelectDir), '', '', True, 'Apache');
HiddenPage.Add('');
HiddenPage.OnShouldSkipPage := @SkipPage;
end;
The code needs Unicode version of Inno Setup. Calling HiddenPage.Buttons[0].OnClick
strangely does not work in Ansi version.
