[SOLVED] How to embed an ico to exe

[avatar]

I am reading the example Systray.pb.

The ico and bmp files are located at the sub-directory of "Data".

When I compile the example to be an executable, how can I also embed the resource files (ico and bmp) into the exe?

[ts-soft]

The simpelst way is with IncludeBinary
and CatchImage

[Trond]

Code: Select all

; Include the icons in the exe
DataSection
  MyIconLabel:
  IncludeBinary "icon filename.ico"

  MyOtherIconLabel:
  IncludeBinary "other icon filename.ico"
EndDataSection

; Use CatchImage() instead of LoadImage()
CatchImage(0, ?MyIconLabel)
CatchImage(1, ?MyOtherIconLabel)
; I don't remember if this is the exact syntax, but lookup CatchImage() in the manual.
