I’ m in trouble with the Shipping mode of the Packaging.
I’ m not able to understand what I’ m missing with the settings, but when the packaging ends, I don’ t obtain an “[ProjectName]-Win32-Shipping.exe.exe”. The final shipping-packaged project is not different from the development-packaged project, actually at the end it have been exorted as “[ProjectName].exe”.
Because I had some problems running the .exe in another machine, so I’ve thought that the Shipping-Packaging didn’ t succed even if all the process seems to be correct!
So(I’m a beginner,obviously) the Shipping-Packaging don’t need necessarly the long form name?
No, but the .exe will need to be launched within the packaged folder. So you will need to send the entire folder including the .exe; If they (the end user) remove(s) the .exe from the folder, it will not work. However, they can make a shortcut from the .exe and place that on the desktop and move the folder to any directory they like.
Try this and let me know if it does not resolve your issue.
I’ve tried to run the same exe in different computer and despite some errors caused by antivirus or missing Visual Studio element, it worked pretty well!
