Hi all,
Quick question. I have an app that is compiled for Mac and Windows. The resulting Mac standalone is a single APP file while there is an "Externals" folder that accompany's the resulting Windows standalone containing DLL files. Is there a way to build the Windows standalone so that the accompanying DLL files all reside within the standalone .EXE?
If this is not possible, it's cool. I was just looking for a cleaner install.
Best regards,
Jon

Hi Jon,
No the externals are separate to the exe on Windows.
And if you use some of the lcb components, i.e. the Chart in V10.xx you will get an extension folder as well.

Hi Jon,
short answer: no.
macOS apps are actually folders in disguise and appear as one file on the machine.
That is a trick that Windows does not have a command of (yet?).
