exe

I know I can use ResHacker to change a resource from windows and I know I can use ResourceUpdate function to do the same problematically (again in windows). My problem is that I have to update the icon of a windows exe file in linux, without using wine. (the reason for not using wine is that this process should run on an automation server that change the files and sign them). I don't know even where to start from. You can change a files metadata like this: gvfs-set-attribute '/path/to/file' -t stringv metadata::custom-icon "/path/to/image.png" There's a program called windres that should suit

I made a simple utility app. In it I had an exe file to be run. I got it to run by using: Runtime.getRuntime().exec(this.getClass().getResource("filename.exe").getPath()); I works perfectly when I run the program from the ide(Netbeans). But when I try to run the exe using the above command after building(ie from the jar created on building) it does not work at all. I also tried running this : Desktop.getDesktop().open(new File("filename.exe")) but no use again. Please help Tried with a usecase, found that getResource search for path "file:/path/to/thejar.jar!filename.exe", and is unable to use

I have a .net 3.5 application and i'd like to make it portable. It's simple and runs perfectly, i've sent the .EXE + .DLL's to some friends and it works as intended when running the exe with the .DLL's and the .ICO (that i have used in it) along in the same folder.

(a.k.a portable) I may consider migrating it to .net 2.0 if needed, i don't use any 3.5-only functionality, in fact, i'm not really sure why i'm using 3.5 (i'm new at

I have made a Kinect Application in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. I need to make an exe of the application which can run on any windows based system. If I need to do that than is there any requirements that the system should fulfil? and If yes, then how do I do that? I tried to use the exe in application/bin/debug/application.exe by copying it in another folder but it shows an error but if I run the exe from the bin/debug/application.exe it works. Am I missing something here or is it the only way to do that? "Any Windows based system" isn't going to work. Assuming you're using the Kinect SDK,

I compiled mplayer from source on Ubuntu. I didn't want to use a GUI but I wanted to make a executable bash file that gets the path from an file that gets dropped onto the bash file. How do I make such a thing possible? I wanted to make it look something like this: mplayer <get full path to file . file-ending> I want the executable bash file to sit on my desktop ;) If possible, I'd just like an rightclick -> start with mplayer function, but I don't know how to make one. PhoneixS You can access arguments passed to the script with $1 (for the first argument). And also you should make a .desktop
