REALbasic: bundling dependent DLL's
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 5:40 pm
Hi,
EnigmaProtector build 1.53 can now be used to bundle the dependent dll's (like AppearancePAK.dll) that REALbasic adds as a library folder when exporting a Windows .exe. It will create a single Windows executable, making deployment easier. EnigmaProtector is also able to add a wide-range of other features like trial versions, serial numbers, expiration dates and many ways to protect intellectual property.
To accomplish this:
(1) set up your protected REALbasic executable file as you ordinarily do, using build 1.53.
(2) open Protection Features>Files attachment and check "Use protected files attachment."
(3) add the .dll from the library folder containing the dependencies accompanying the REALbasic-exported .exe.
(4) select "Never Write to Disk" and under "Relative Path" enter the folder name with no quotes.
(5) compile and the new Enigma-protected .exe will bundle the .dll and not require the folder or its .dll to be separately included when distributed.
For REALbasic users, this is a great feature!!!
Thanks, Vladimir.
Kind Regards,
