Re: Building Windows standalones on Mac with LC 9.6.4 or later - apps not launching?

2021-09-24 Thread Ben Rubinstein via use-livecode

Hi Matthias,

Thanks for testing. After Trevor reported that it should work, I built an 
empty "hello world" stack which indeed launched OK. Since then I've been going 
round and round trying to cut down a copy of my app and simultaneously trying 
to build up the empty stack.


It does seem to be do with inclusions, but I haven't quite got it figured yet 
- but I've just managed to get a working version of my actual app. Hurrah!


Thanks for helping,

Ben

Ben,

i tried here and created a Windows standalone (both 32 and 64 bit) on Big Sur 
with LC 9.6.4 and moved it to a Windows 10 machine.
The created standalone could be opened without any problem on Windows.

Do you have manual selected the inclusions in standalone settings  or did you 
let LC IDE search for inclusions?


Or maybe this is a Antivirus / Firewall problem? Maybe your standalone was 
blocked without any notification.

Matthias

Has anyone else encountered an issue building Windows standalones from LC 9.6.4

What I'm seeing is that the process is suspiciously fast; but generates the 
expected files (.exe, the various dlls); and the .exe is the expected size, 
almost identical to what is produced under LC 9.6.3.

However when this is moved to a Windows machine:

- attempting to open in the Explorer simply nothing happens.

- attempting to launch the standalone from command line is met with the message "Access 
is denied" (although security properties allow Read).

Symptoms are exactly the same whether the standalone was built for x86 or 
x86-64. Same if built from either LC 9.6.4 and on LC 9.6.5 (rc 1).

Before I report this in the LQCC and make myself look stupid - has anyone else 
built a Windows standalone from Mac on LC 9.6.4 or later, and did it work?

TIA,

Ben

Before I report this in the LQCC and make myself look stupid - has anyone
else
built a Windows standalone from Mac on LC 9.6.4 or later, and did it work?



I have successfully built Windows executables on macOS three times with
9.6.4. The only issue I experienced was with tsNet business. I have a
specific version that is included when I package my app. The business
version pre-9.6.4 would not launch under 9.6.4. Updating the copy I
distribute with the version from 9.6.4 fixed the problem.
