Help with Java app portability

Hey folks,

I'm in the process of making my first Java-based portable app, but Java as a platform is not a strong point for me. I seem to have come across something that isn't handled in the launcher manual, either that or I'm just not reading it correctly (always a possibility).

First of all, the app in question is Makagiga. I am using version 3.8.13 Portable/Cross-Platform purely because version 4 uses Java 7, for which there is currently no portable version.

AppCompactor.ini not findable in the folder AppInfo

Submitted by tapsklaps on November 5, 2011 - 8:51pm

I used the PortableApps.com AppCompactor 2.2 with the aim to shrink my portable app streamWriter. According to the instructions on PortableApps.com AppCompactor and AppCompactor.ini the file AppCompactor.ini should resides in the folder AppInfo. Unfortunately I can't find such a file in the folder AppInfo of the app streamWriter. How can I fix that issue?

How do I join and learn to Beta Test?

Hello Everyone:

I have been using portable apps for years now. I just recently joined the forum. I am quite pleased with the increase in the number of applications and the frequent updates. I noticed the Beta Testing section. I wanted to find out how to sign up to test and if there is a guideline used to indicate what a user should do when testing an application. I am willing to learn because I don't know the procedures. Any help would be appreciated? Thank you.

Cheers,
hikarimay10
