executable

Very recently I have come back to Delphi after a long pause and written a rather straightforward utility app my client requested to support an older release... I know these days the size does not matter much, but it struck me as odd that the one-unit application, when compiled, amounted to 1'084'416 b executable. The one and only .pas unit I wrote is some 20.8k large, mostly because of the richness of the gui. The uses clause is as follows: uses Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Controls, Forms, strutils, Dialogs, ADODB, DB, DBGrids, ExtCtrls, DBCtrls, StdCtrls, Grids, Menus,

If a friend wants to run my Haskell binaries, does he have to first install Haskell, or can he immediately run the binary by itself? Is the answer the same on Mac, Windows, and Linux? GHC does produce stand-alone binaries that do not require GHC itself to be installed, however they do link against some dynamic libraries, most notably libgmp . The remaining libraries are commonly found out of the box on most Linux systems. I believe the situation is similar on Windows. You can check which dynamic libraries you depend on using ldd on Linux. Here's what I get on Ubuntu Natty for a simple Hello

To create executable files (windows) I assume that we should use one of them: Py2exe or PyInstaller. What are the difference between them? Py2exe and PyInstaller both are wrappers but here are few differences that I noticed, Py2exe is compatible with python2.4+ including python3.0 & 3.1 whereas PyInstaller is currently, compatible with python 2.7 and 3.3–3.5 As far I know, Py2exe didn't support signing whereas Pyinstaller has support for signing from version 1.4 In PyInstaller it is easy to create one exe, By default both create bunch of exes & dlls. In py2exe its easier to embed manifest file

This is a batch file in Windows. Here is my .bat file @echo off copy "C:\Remoting.config-Training" "C:\Remoting.config" "C:\ThirdParty.exe" This works fine except the .bat file leaves the command window open the whole time the "ThirdParty" application is running. I need the command window to close. I would use the short-cut for the application but I must be able to run this copy command first (it actually changes which data base and server to use for the application). The ThirdParty application does not allow the user to change the source of the db or the application server. We're doing this

We are trying to develop a small application that can monitor the programs/processes that are executing in a windows machine. If the program/process is not supposed to run, it should be blocked. It works similar to an antivirus. This is the basic idea. I want to know the ways to hook into the OS to get notified about every single program/process trying to run in the machine. The easiest way is to use WMI. Specifically monitor the Win32_ProcessStartTrace. This is better than Win32_Process, because it is setup to use events whereas Win32_Process requires polling which is more CPU intensive.

I'm trying to make an "executable" war file ( java -jar myWarFile.war ) that will start up a Jetty webserver that hosts the webapp contained in the WAR file I executed. I found a page that described how to make what I'm looking for: However, following that advice along with how I think I'm supposed to make an executable jar (war) isn't working. I have an Ant task creating a WAR file with a manifest that looks like: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1 Created-By: 1.5.0_18-b02 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) Main-Class: Start The contents of the WAR file look like: > Start.class > jsp >
