Re: Windows Build - STR# 10135, 18/19 Folders

Hi Allan,

> Did you ever get to the bottom of this?

Not that I recall. I discovered that I could just go inside the folder and use 
the compiled app.

However, I have been using 4D v17R5 and I don’t see it anymore. And I’m not 
sure when it stopped being created?

Sorry I can’t be more help Allan.

John...

Hi John

Did you ever get to the bottom of this?

I've just had v17R6 start to do this to me under Windows 10 when I 
attempt to compile/merge engine an app that compiled perfectly fine with 
v17R5.


In my case the Server and Clients apps are in a folder called

STR# 10135, 20


Any light you can shed on this would be hugely appreciated.

Cheers
Allan

Hey All,

I couldn’t find anything in KB that explained this situation.

Windows 10 -4D  v17r4

I just noticed that the build of an engined version of my app creates two 
foldersnamed:

STR# 10135, 18 -> Appname.4dbase -> includes the .4DC/.4DIndy files
STR# 10135, 19 -> Appname -> includes executable

Is this related to the application build XML or JSON file?

Re: Windows Build - STR# 10135, 18/19 Folders

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi All,

Windows 4D v17R4 Engined running under Windows 10 Home.

I cannot see any examples or tech tips or 4D NUG where it’s mentioned that a 
build of an engined version of my app creates two folders like:

STR# 10135, 18 -> Appname.4dbase -> includes the .4DC/.4DIndy files
STR# 10135, 19 -> Appname -> includes executable

It’s like 4D was looking for some string resource and couldn’t find them and so 
named the folders as “STR@#…”

Maybe someone at 4D could let me know if this is normal for a windows build? If 
not what can I do to fix?

Appreciate,
John...

Hi Randy,

Thanks! I’ll send it to you via your email and reduce my NUG noise. 

Appreciate,
John…

RE: Windows Build - STR# 10135, 18/19 Folders

[Randy Engle via 4D_Tech]

John,

On our system:
(Windows 10 4D 17r4)
(We are 100% windows, creating new builds 3x week)

On Windows, the built app creates a folder:  "AppName"
This has the "Appname.exe" in it

Inside of that folder is another folder:  "Database"  This holds the 
.4DC/.4Dindy files

Clicking on the .EXE works just fine

Don't know about the "appname.4Dbase" folder
Something in the buildapp.xml?

I'll be glad to look at your buildapp.xml file if you want to send it to me.

Randy Engle

Hey All,

I couldn’t find anything in KB that explained this situation.

Windows 10 - 4D v17r4

I just noticed that the build of an engined version of my app creates two 
foldersnamed:

STR# 10135, 18 -> Appname.4dbase -> includes the .4DC/.4DIndy files STR# 10135, 
19 -> Appname -> includes executable

Is this related to the application build XML or JSON file?

I haven't had to create a standalone app on windows since 
DataPulse/StructurePulse 10 years ago. And it looks like I will need both of 
these folders as part of the “App”.

Can they just be renamed and then included in another folder? And isn’t there a 
way of creating a file (an alias like) where the client will click that and the 
app will work? I really like to keep them out of these folders.

Does an install program on windows manage these pieces as well.

If you have experience creating a standalone app on windows I’d appreciate any 
help. Any time saved is huge at this point.

Thanks for your help,
John…
