Since 3.3.9.3 the /pack switch (which is the default) of Aut2exe.exe is no longer working.

The following message is displayed: Error: Unable to execute upx.exe to compress stub file. upx: <file>: CantPackException: superfluous data between sections

Running the same command line with 3.3.9.2 (or before) is working. Using /nopack is working, too. So I don't expect that the error is caused by the .au3 file.

Hello,

Firstly, I apologize if this might be considered something under the never-to-be-included "New Opt()/AutoItSetOption() flags" category. I searched the forums and found nothing pertaining to this.

I was thinking a good feature to add would be some kind of directive which can be put in a script which would specify an icon to be used by Aut2Exe during compilation of the output executable.

I realize that a custom icon already may be chosen from within the Aut2Exe GUI and command line, but it is sometimes necessary to have different icons for each of multiple compiled AutoIt3 executables, specifically ones which reside in the system tray. It is a bit inconvenient to have to go into the Aut2Exe GUI every time to change the output executable icon, especially when there is constant development occurring on the scripts in question. I could write batch files to handle the different icons, but I think more users would potentially benefit from an icon inclusion directive.

#icon "path/to/icon" (or something similar, perhaps)

I have recently upgraded my AutoIt installation (from 3.2.9.3b to 3.2.12.0) and I've discovered what looks like a bug in Aut2exe; it's adding blank 16x16x16 icons into the compiled application, at id#2 (after the main application icon).

If other icons are added to the application, e.g. document icons (with AutoIt3Wrapper) their id's are shifted up by one, and the document icon (or whatever) appears incorrectly on the user's system - in a defaulticon registry setting, for example, but it's true of any place that might reference one of the application's icons by its standard windows id.

I guessed it might be a lack of 16x16x16 format icon in my own application icons, but even using Aut2exe without AutoIt3Wrapper and no compile option whatsoever, this extra blank icon appears, and the AutoIt default icon has the 16x16x16 format, so that's not the reason, not that that would be a good reason!

I've searched the forum, documentation and history, and I can't find any mention of this extra icon's purpose, other than to mess up all the icon id's. Is this a bug?

I don't want to go implementing changes to my application's installers to fix all these references to something that's just going to be fixed back again. If it's going to be fixed, I could instead temporarily remove this weird blank icon from compiled applications until it's fixed, which though a pain (I always have to go into ResHacker anyway), would be preferable for end-users.
