ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring

[Bert Mariani]

Hello Mahmound

Came across this problem when I was updating one of my existing Ring to EXE programs

Attached:

     TestRingtoExecute.ring

The following command generates an EXE but the EXE does not work

      ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring

=======================

Code -Lines in  -- TestRingToExecute.ring

Test: Ring to EXE
C:\ring\bin\ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring
The rain in Spain
Lies mainly on the Plain
Sum = 5 + 7 ==> 12

=======================

Command

>C:\ring\bin\ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring

Ring2EXE: Process File : TestRingToExecute.ring
Ring2EXE: Start building the application...
Ring2EXE: Generate C source code file...
Ring2EXE: Generation Time : 0.01 seconds...
Ring2EXE: Generate batch|script file...
Ring2EXE: Generate batch|script file for dynamic building...
Ring2EXE: Build the Executable File...
Ring2EXE: End of building script...
Ring2EXE: Executable file is ready!
Ring2EXE: End of building process...
Ring2EXE: Clear Temp. Files...

========================

Ring Output:  TestRingToExecute.ring

Test: Ring to EXE
C:\ring\bin\ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring
The rain in Spain
Lies mainly on the Plain
Sum = 5 + 7 ==> 12

========================

EXE Output: TestRingToExecute.exe  ---  No Output

C:\MyStuff\AA-CurlApp-DISTRIBUTE>TestRingToExecute.exe

Hello Bert

Try ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring -static

This avoids the need to ring.dll

Or avoid (-static) and copy ring.dll to the app folder

Note: the (-static) option is related only to (ring.dll), i.e. if other extensions are used, the related DLLs are expected to be in the app folder

Thanks  Mahmoud !!

>>> Try  ring2exe.exe TestRingToExecute.ring -static

        This avoids the need to ring.dll

Using the  -static  worked.

The hint about  "ring.dll" triggered my memory.

On new versions of Ring 1.26  etc

I needed to copy the following into the directory of my application 

// NOTE:  Copy from c:/ring/bin to current directory
//       ring.dll
//       ring_cjson.dll
//       ring_libcurl.dll

Now everything works again as expected
