It seems that _in general_ the Distribution Builder cannot create a
single monolithic application. It can take only one stack file and
create an application. However, it can move over the other stack files
and set some properties appropriately. Fortunately, on OS X, the
stacks are put down inside the application bundle, so the result looks
effectively monolithic. (I don't understand the rationale for the
particular folder, but that is a separate issue.) However, on Windows,
all stack files other than that of the primary stack file are outside
the application.
This is a correct assesment of the situation. I'm not sure how you could
create a single executable file from multiple stack files and retain your
original message path. Perhaps if a standalone had it's own emulated
directory structure but I doubt that would ever happen.
I wasn't sure either, but I got the impression the DB somehow did it. There is no indication that it does not.
I pictured that it would contain all the stacks with the mainStack and subStacks values intact and there was some special pointer or something to the primary mainstack. Those runrev folks are pretty smart, so I figured they figured it out.
Then I got a clue that a standalone was as stackfile...
