- nsExec
- ------
- nsExec will execute command-line based programs and capture the output
- without opening a dos box.
- Usage
- -----
- nsExec::Exec [/OEM] [/TIMEOUT=x] path
- -or-
- nsExec::ExecToLog [/OEM] [/TIMEOUT=x] path
- -or-
- nsExec::ExecToStack [/OEM] [/TIMEOUT=x] path
- All functions are the same except ExecToLog will print the output
- to the log window and ExecToStack will push up to ${NSIS_MAX_STRLEN}
- characters of output onto the stack after the return value.
- Use the /OEM switch to convert the output text from OEM to ANSI.
- The timeout value is optional. The timeout is the time in
- milliseconds nsExec will wait for output. If output from the
- process is received, the timeout value is reset and it will
- again wait for more output using the timeout value. See Return
- Value for how to check if there was a timeout.
- To ensure that command are executed without problems on all windows versions,
- is recommended to use the following syntax:
- nsExec::ExecToStack [OPTIONS] '"PATH" param1 param2 paramN'
- This way the application path may contain non 8.3 paths (with spaces)
- Return Value
- ------------
- If nsExec is unable to execute the process, it will return "error"
- on the top of the stack, if the process timed out it will return
- "timeout", else it will return the return code from the
- executed process.
