  • Create EXE file from AMS? Or other solution to a single file.

    I want to build software that creates software for listening to radio.
    I want users of my software Could enter the path to Their online radio station Then be able to keep it on a single EXE file.

    Use AutoIT (www.autoitscript.com).

      Or use any other 'real' compiler. AutoIT is a nice free solution, indeed.

        There are many tricks you could do there like using a file propaty and have AMS right it to the EXE and have that exe read its own pros or something on these lines really, or even a little hex editing would also work in this kind of thing have it right it to your exe.

        There are many creative ways to do this, but using another compiler would help but I also used RAR to do this in the past to be able to create single exe like apps and yes it was all via AMS.

          I tried to check the RAR And I wanted to ask is there a way to do that with the ZIP function on AMS? Or is there an add-in for RAR That will be possible to do what you said. I think what you said it better and easier than I thought Although I do not know how to do it. I would love to help.

            Would you not be better using one of the many databases supported by AMS or even an INI file rater than compiling an exe just to store a path? Can't think of a situation where I have seen an application store data after compiling in an exe file.

              I do not have to compile What I have to do is keep everything to one file and Once the file is on user computer I can create a file With AMS אם save data if needed. (the user must get just one file)
              I think the easiest thing is to create EXE file with the RAR softwareWith command line WinRAR software allows you to set Installation and running a file automatically after the installation. I managed to do it with WinRAR But I could not Do it with AMS and command line. I would love any solution.

                Right at this moment I don't have my project I did that used WinRar, the problem is the way I got around it is I requested the end user to download WinRar them selfs as the WinRar lic does not let you package it with the tool, this is one step you need to think about if you want your tool to be public.

                I can tell you WinRar from Rarlabs works from AMS as its how I did it, If I find the project files out I be happy to share it without WinRar and you just download WinRar

                But WinRar is not the only option out there it was just one I found easy to use, but I ended up droping single exe support in my tools as with hdd builds you can have much nicer folder lay out, no temp folders, you can inbed a nice installer tool, I convert all my cdd files to another format like dll so it looks more native with bunny hop.
