I'm building my setup with server and client installation/setup types.
I need to skip or hide a custom page if user choose server type.
Server type only have a custom page to select SQL instance and a button to launch sqlcmd
to install DB, while client installation only copy some files to program directory.
This is my test code with custom page:
[Types]
Name: "Server"; Description: "Server"
Name: "Client"; Description: "Client"
[Components]
Name: "Dictation"; Description: "Dictation"; Types: Client
Name: "DigitalSign"; Description: "Digital Sign"; Types: Client
[Tasks]
Name: "Voisis"; Description: "Voisis"; Components: Dictation
Name: "Recomed"; Description: "Recomed"; Components: Dictation
[Code]
var
Page: TWizardPage;
Panel: TPanel;
Edit0,Edit1,Edit2,Edit3: TNewEdit;
StaticText0, StaticText1,StaticText2,StaticText3: TNewStaticText;
procedure InitializeWizard;
begin
// Create the pages
Page :=
CreateCustomPage(wpInfoBefore, 'Personal Information', 'Who are you?');
Edit0 := TNewEdit.Create(Page);
Edit0.Top := ScaleY(16);
Edit0.Width := Page.SurfaceWidth div 3 - ScaleX(8);
Edit0.Text := 'localhost\WISE';
Edit0.Parent := Page.Surface;
Edit1 := TNewEdit.Create(Page);
Edit1.Top := ScaleY(64);
Edit1.Width := Page.SurfaceWidth div 3 - ScaleX(8);
Edit1.Text := 'sa';
Edit1.Parent := Page.Surface;
Edit2 := TNewEdit.Create(Page);
Edit2.Top := ScaleY(112);
Edit2.Width := Page.SurfaceWidth div 3 - ScaleX(8);
Edit2.Text := 'Password';
Edit2.Parent := Page.Surface;
Edit3 := TNewEdit.Create(Page);
Edit3.Top := ScaleY(160);
Edit3.Width := Page.SurfaceWidth div 3 - ScaleX(8);
Edit3.Text := 'TNewEdit';
Edit3.Parent := Page.Surface;
StaticText0 := TNewStaticText.Create(Page);
Statictext0.Top := ScaleY(2);
StaticText0.Caption := 'Istanza';
StaticText0.AutoSize := True;
StaticText0.Parent := Page.Surface;
StaticText1 := TNewStaticText.Create(Page);
Statictext1.Top := ScaleY(50);
StaticText1.Caption := 'User';
StaticText1.AutoSize := True;
StaticText1.Parent := Page.Surface;
StaticText2 := TNewStaticText.Create(Page);
Statictext2.Top := ScaleY(98);
StaticText2.Caption := 'Password';
StaticText2.AutoSize := True;
StaticText2.Parent := Page.Surface;
StaticText3 := TNewStaticText.Create(Page);
Statictext3.Top := ScaleY(146);
StaticText3.Caption := 'bho';
StaticText3.AutoSize := True;
StaticText3.Parent := Page.Surface;
end;
function ShouldSkipPage(PageID: Integer): Boolean;
begin
Result := False;
if PageID = PageID then
Result := not IsComponentSelected('Server');
end;
In ShouldSkipPage
event function, compare the PageID
against the TWizardPage.ID
of the custom page. And use WizardSetupType
support function to test the selected setup type.
var
Page: TWizardPage;
function ShouldSkipPage(PageID: Integer): Boolean;
begin
Result := False;
if Page.ID = PageID then
Result := (WizardSetupType(False) <> 'server');
end;
And obviously, your custom page must show after the "Select Components" page, not before:
Page := CreateCustomPage(wpSelectComponents, ...);
Alternatively, you can handle TWizardPage.OnShouldSkipPage
of the custom page.
For an example, see Skip Inno Setup custom page, unless specific radio button is selected on previous page.
