Portable App Development

Well, the purpose of this header was originally for U3 launchers so I could delegate cleanup functions to a separate executable from the launcher, but perhaps it can be useful, so I thought I'd share here. For example, if you are performing cleanup functions from within the launcher (as per PAF), the AddFilesToCopy function is practically useless, as it just passes its parameters to CopyFiles, so it's redundant.

It seems like we'd be unable to rebuild CCleaner due to the license it has, but Piriform says all their software is already portable. So all we would have to do is build a launcher for it, right? I do remember there being an issue about recompiling Skype, but we still made a launcher. So if someone could help me figure out the legal status of CCleaner, I'd more than gladly compile it (and if Piriform lets us, Defraggler and Recuva as well). For reference, here's a copy of the license. Change CCleaner to Recuva or Defraggler and you have those licenses as well.

Have uploaded a test version of this.

The installer will put everything other than the program in. Download JCreater and put in the app\JCreator folder

Then grab the JDK and throw that in the same folder in a folder called jdk.

The options folder contains the profile to allow jcreator to use that folder for the jdk.

Then all should be groovy.

(this is working for me with JCreator Pro.

May/Should work for JCreater LE as well sop long as its exe is JCreater.exe, if not just change it and you should be good to go.

Can an auto update feature be built into PortableApps?

Check current installed app(s) - compare installed version number - check for new version number - suggest update of xyz app(s).

Hi Everyone,

I use Wireshark on my Work but I use it a lot on different machines to trouble shoot network devices and connections. Is it possible to make Wireshark Portable?

There should be a password in order to load PortableApps.

Every time i try to compile the menu, i get a weird error:

Output: "H:\portableapps\PortableApps\SWEAW_Portable_0.3.paf.exe"
Internal compiler error #12345: deflateInit() failed(initialization failed [-2]).
Error - aborting creation process


When i change the default installer to Best Compressor, i get this as well:
Note: you may have one or two (large) stale temporary file(s)
left in your temporary directory (Generally this only happens on Windows 9x).
