Hi Folks,
First Q: I need in Windows to create a shortcut programatically and
move it to a specific location. Any suggestions?
Second Q: Is is possible to include an exe file in a compiled app,
say by including it in the project object? Then, from within the
compiled application, launch that executable. Sort of like a
subprogram.
Yes
Drop the exe into your project and it will be compiled right in
Then when you need it you can save it out to a binary file and launch it
Suppose you drop in a program called "MyApp.exe" then something like
(note this is intended to be an outline of how to do this)
dim bs as BinaryStream
dim f as FolderItem
f = new FolderItem(path to where you need it)
bs = f.CreateBinaryFile
bs.write MyApp
bs = nil
f.launch
