writing current date & time as file name using NSIS
I developed an installer using NSIS. Every time I re-install the application, I want to create a backup of the existing database files.
How can I rename these database files using the following format 'currentdatetime'(ex: 201003101140 means 2010-03-10 at 11:40 AM)?
开发者_StackOverflowThanks !
There is a built-in function in NSIS for this called ${GetTime}
!include "FileFunc.nsh"
!insertmacro GetTime
${GetTime} "" "L" $0 $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6
DetailPrint "currentdatetime=$2$1$0$4$5$6"
This will output something like
currentdatetime=20130210205537
meaning "10-Feb-2013 20:55:37".
System::Call '*(&i2,&i2,&i2,&i2,&i2,&i2,&i2,&i2)i.s'
System::Call /NOUNLOAD 'kernel32::GetLocalTime(isr0)'
System::Call '*$0(&i2.r1,&i2.r2,&i2,&i2.r3,&i2.r4,&i2.r5,&i2,&i2)'
System::Free $0
IntFmt $1 "%0.4d" $1
IntFmt $2 "%0.2d" $2
IntFmt $3 "%0.2d" $3
IntFmt $4 "%0.2d" $4
IntFmt $5 "%0.2d" $5
DetailPrint "datetime=$1$2$3$4$5"
The best way to do this is explained here: nsis
!define /date MyTIMESTAMP "%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S"
Name "MyApplicationName ${MyTIMESTAMP}"
OutFile "MyApplicationNameSetup-${MyTIMESTAMP}.exe"
These macros might work for you: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter5.html#5.2.3
