Hi
all.
I have a set of
components that require a specific DLL.
I have written a
demo to show what the components can do etc. and I am making it a ONE exe demo.
i.e. the DLL and another associated file are in a Resource file compiled into
the exe.
BUT because Delphi
"Appears" to do early binding, it says the the DLL does not exist....which it
doesnt as it has not been extracted yet from the resource
file.
If I comment out the
main unit from the USES clause in the DPR source it is fine, appart from not
running as the form doesnt exist.
SO, how am I going
to get around this ?
My thought is to make anothe "Loader" exe that extracts both the exe and the DLL out of a resource file and runs the extracted exe,but there MUST be a way to do it just in the one EXE.

Can anyone help at
