Portable App Development

Hi, all I've made a portable app using the Launcher, and it's licensed under the GPL or LGPL. The exact wording is:

"It is free software (free of charge and free access to source code: GPL or LGPL licence)"

My main goal is to refine the application and make sure it's not fatally flawed, with the help of my fellow developers here, before telling the original application's developer about it. This is to avoid showing him an unfinished/bugged program and having him decide he doesn't want any redistribution.

Questions:

Are there any plans to make a portable Java JDK available?

The extra tools and such it includes are quite useful for portable Java development.

Just a small hint to the development-team of Thunderbird portable - related to the functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro:

Acro Pro offers a quickly way to sent the current opened PDF's via email. Therefore you just have to select file/sent as email and then Acro opens the current Mail-Client and attaches the PDF automatically - very practicable and very, very quick!!!

But it does not work with the portable editions :-(((

I wanted to give the discussion from here a proper thread.

Regarding the possibility to us the server component of AssaultCube, I have a couple of questions:

Do both server and client have to be run simultaneously on the same machine?
Does anyone know what files the server needs?

Hello,

is it possible to get an install/update log with the new portable application install program? I would like to be able to review what happened during the install and update process. This should be integrated into the installer, so that a log is available for every application distributed here (all new ones).

I downloaded the sources of PartableApps.com Platform and I know how to compile them.
When I compile the platform I have : "[Fatal Error] dialog.pas (7): File not found: 'pngimage.dcu' "

Hi everybody,

I really like the favorites function. Would it be possible to split the portable apps menu into a favorites area with 5 entries, scrolling possible, and a normal program area? It would be very helpful.

TeamViewer v5.1.9192 is out since 2010-09-21.

May I suggest some improvements to whoever currently develops the offical PA.c version?

The currently available version 5.1.9160 can leave traces in the host system's registry at:

HKCU\Software\Teamviewer\Version5.1\
HKLM\Software\Teamviewer\Version5.1\

Also, the "TeamViewer.ini" file is kept in three places:

App\DefaultData\settings\TeamViewer.ini
App\teamviewer\TeamViewer.ini
Data\settings\TeamViewer.ini

As I create the app using the installer I get an error:

...
SetDetailsPrint: both
DetailPrint: "$InstallingStatusString"
SetDetailsPrint: ListOnly
!insertmacro: _EndIf
!insertmacro: end of _EndIf
File: failed creating mmap of "..\..\NWM2011x64Portable.exe"
Error in script "G:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk 2011\Navisworks Manage 2011\Other\Source\PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi" on line 901 -- aborting creation process

Can anyone please help me with this I'm new to creating PortableApps?

Thanks.

Hey guys,

I have a few apps that require multiple launchers quite like has been done in open office and am wondering if the same is possible with the PAL?

I am aware that the launchers in OO.org are done straight from the NSIS code, but its worth a try asking isn't it?

Also, if it isn't possible, will it be implemented in future versions of the PAL?

Many thanks,

Shane Thompson
