About #include

[LibertyMan]

In most scrip's you see

#Include <GuiEdit.au3>
#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <ListBoxConstants.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Now my question is how can I put them

with my program with out open source?..

Would i just build it all in one file or

file install or something like that?

would this be called Bundle.. im sure someone

here can help me out.

thanks -LibertyMan

Man I think that they are included in your script if you build it (.exe i mean), no need for you to copy those #include files in that person's comp , because they won't work if the don't have AutoIt installed

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking...

If you wish to transmit your source code somewhere, and they don't have autoit installed, you would need to send the separate include files as well (although of what use are they without AutoIt?). Yes, you could cut-and-paste the contents of the include files directly into your source, and then be able to remove the include statements. Doing that creates problems down the road when newer releases of AutoIt come out.

If you only intend to send a compiled version of your script somewhere, you have no worries, as the include files are added to your source prior to the compile and are not needed later to run the executable. You can also run the Obfuscator step during the compile with the /SO option set, to remove the portions of the include files that are not referenced within your program. This can result in a much smaller .exe file.

When you compile they will all be in the single executable that created if thats what you mean.

thank you, so if my work is in five .au3 files

all #includes are on top of my main .Au3,

Then Compile and anyone can run just the Main.Au3

on any computer? with out with out autoIt installed?

Thank, again.

If you compile your program, then a myproggy.exe will be created which you may distribute, sell, exchange... as a single block of standalone executable.

I don't know if you understood ! They can't run an .au3 script if they dont have AutoIt installed ... you have to make an .exe !
