Fix for the /D= NSIS param regression (x64)
Detailed explanation is in the .onInit patch comments.
This regression has been caused by the previous PR: #11013 .
Fix#11072, close#11158
New "functionList" will be added beside of notepad++.exe or "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\", according the installation mode. If the portable package is used, after removing "doLocalConf.xml", the "functionList" folder should be copied manually from Notepad++ installed directory to "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\" to make function list work again.
All splited files are localized in this folder with the explicit language name.
"overrideMap.xml" is optional for overriding the default functionList parse rule files, and for adding UDL parse rule files.
Close#4896
1. Fix shell extension registration error (due to notepad++.exe has not
yet been copied)
2. Fix themes' absence after installation (one variable depends on
its initialization in mainSection)
While install a x64 version, it should remove x86 version if it exists (and vice versa).
The removal feature doesn't work though user answer Yes for the deletion.
This commit fixes this issue.
The new installer argument /allowAppDataPluginsLoading add file
allowAppDataPlugins.xml which allows Notepad++ to load plugins
from "%APPDATA%\Notepad++\plugins\"
Fixed uinstaller issues:
1. Folder "localization" is not removed even all the files are removed from
this folder.
2. Folder "pluging\APIs" is not removed even all the files are removed from
this folder.
3. Three files are not removed (contextMenu.xml, functionList.xml and
shortcuts.xml). There might be more files.
From "%appdata%\Notepad"
4. Bakcup folder (form %appdata%\Notepad++) is not removed if backup folder
is not empty.
5. Folder "themes" is not removed even all the files are removed.
6. Because of above two items, parent folder ("%appdata%\Notepad") is also
not removed.
7. Rephrase user message when user tries to install 64 bit while 32 is
already installed (vice versa).
Closes#2565
- Use DWORD instead of string for Minor and major version
- Show only "Uninstall" instead of "Uninstall/Change"
- Write installed size as well which will be shown in "Program and Features"
Closes#2580
64-bit Installer can detect the 32-bit installation (and vice versa),
and suggest users to remove the existing one before install the new one.
It works only when the existing installation is on "C:\Program Files
(x86)\Notepad++" or "C:\Program Files\Notepad++" directory
Closes#2175
As of now npp installer is not using any compression to reduce the installer size. I don't know if there is any history behind not using any compression algorithm.
But I noticed a reasonable difference after using /SOLID lzma compression technique. It reduces the installer size by 30~35%.
If we uses /FINAL lzma, it is improved by 15~18%.
