Portable App Development

there´s another suite [link removed by mod JTH] and i think portableapps and these one can join and become one, at least both are great options and each one have their one benefits, what do u think?

Can anybody tell me what I have to do to get TurboCASH listed as an approved Portable App? We have been shipping it as a portable app using Asuite forn early a year now and things are going really well. The App is open source and has been reduced from 160 Mb to 30 Mb for the portable verison.

If I use this to preserve "appinfo.ini" (so I can read the installed version on an upgrade) everything works fine, as long as the file exists. If it's a fresh install, the installer complains that it's corrupt and quits.

Is it a bug or is there some reason I shouldn't be doing this?

When I compiled the installer by PortableApps.com_Installer_0.13.3, it can only include the App directory, but not the Data directory's files.

What should I do?

Please bear with me i'm new at this and i'm not sure what i'm doing and don't know where to get the answer to me question.

Although I prefer PortableApps I have been using the U3 smart drive becaue I cannot find a way to protect what is on the USB drive. Where can I find a log in window lihe the U3 smart drive?

Okay... I'm running into a problem with Eclipse Portable and I've thought for days about work-arounds but came up with none.

This is what happens...

Eclipse Portable launches with RunLocally function.
App is copied to System.
App is launched.

Now here's where the problem starts...

if the user changes workspace... at the current moment, eclipse.exe will close and start-up again, but the problem is that EclipsePortable.exe DELETE'S THE APP DIR!!!

Often I install apps at the public library and my time runs out in the middle of installation, so I take out my drive in the middle of installing the app and then Windows freaks out and tells me that it can't find the drive. No matter how many times I exit out of that message, it pops up again. And it won't let the computer shut down for like five minutes. Could the future installers include an exit/cancel button or is that just how NSIS is made to work?

i have created a install of vb express 2008 so it will be portable. It works except for the fact that it tells me that custstat.dll is missing. But that is in one of the folders that it contains please tell me how to fix it thx. Oh and please tell me how to put it on this site through this post. so you can see for your self. thx.

okay i have made a few launchers for some games and im having a issue with the splash screen not showing up can someone take a look at them for me?

Heres the forum post for one of them: https://portableapps.com/node/20578

also can someone tell me how i can turn my launchers into paf live launchers so the files get downloaded automatically for people?

you can check the OpenSonicPortable.nsi file in the opensonic launcher and stuff if you need to look at the coding of the .nsi file
