SetupBuilder files are attached to this post.

See this page for more information about SetupBuilder: Basic4ppc - Windows Mobile programming and Pocket PC Development

Vista users should run SetupBuilders as administrators. Right click on SetupBuilder.exe and choose 'Run As Administrator'.

Hello Erel!

I have worked with the SetupBuilder all the time and it runs very fine. But now, I have a second .exe-file in the application-path. This .exe-file (VPortBoot.exe) should start from my application with the shell-command. When I install the application with the SetupFile, the SetupBuilder writes the application VPortBoot.exe to the startmenue and named it like my application. So, it is the icon from the VPortBoot.exe, the name from my application and when I start it from the startmenue, it runs VPortBoot. So, I only can start my application out of the explorer.

Is there a way to have more than one .exe-file in the application-path and creates the correct shortcut?

Thanks for your efforts...

The main exe file should be the first one on the list.

SetupBuilder was updated.
The message: "This program may not appear correctly..." will no longer appear.

How can I include the folder ?

You can't include a folder directly from SetupBuilder.
You can however edit the inf file it creates and add a folder.

I built an installer for an app that runs fine on smartphone when copied across, but when I try it this way it says it's not designed for this device (I'm guessing Smartphone vs PocketPC?)

Very good question.
Please see this thread: http://www.basic4ppc.com/forum/quest...martphone.html

Hi Erel,

I tried to compile the SetupBuilder, with the files in Post#1, with the optimized compiler, and get an error:
Error compiling program.
Error message: error CS0246: The type or space name 'DesktopOnly' not found.
It's a translation from french.

I tried with the DesktopOnly library from Post#1 and also with the last updated library.

It works with not optimized, but I expected getting the exe file with the DesktopOnly library merged into it.

What am I doing wrong ?

Best regards.
