I created an appinfo.ini file and I'd like to launch an EXE program using the [Control] section of the ini file but pass some parameters to the EXE? Is this possible? 21:40:56 thasmo: I don't think that supports arguments. 21:41:03 It's not designed to. 21:41:57 gluxon, I see. Found something on the new using *.vbs files to open exe files with arguments. 21:42:33 thasmo: I'm confused then, what's your question? 21:43:08 gluxon, I want to start an EXE file with parameters using the PortableApps Launcher 21:44:23 thasmo: So you're trying to generate a Launcher executable? http://portableapps.com/manuals/PortableApps.comLauncher/ 21:45:01 gluxon, nah - actually I got an exe file from a program which I want to start with parameters using the launcher. 21:46:23 We might have a confusion. Are you referring to the Menu or Launcher? 21:46:53 gluxon, ow sorry - I guess I mean the Menu then. 21:47:02 Ok, that makes better sense. 21:47:05 :> 21:48:53 *** andreasma has quit (Quit: Verlassend) 21:48:55 thasmo: So, you have a vbs script to start another file? 21:49:15 *** ZachThibeau (~ZachThibe@unaffiliated/zachthibeau) has joined #portableapps 21:49:17 ZachThibeau is the main developer of PChat and is a developer with PortableApps.com 21:49:33 gluxon, that's what I tried at last, but it still opens a CMD window besides the desired exe. 21:51:16 thasmo: When you said "*.vbs", are you reffering to a VBScript? 21:51:21 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VBScript 21:52:17 gluxon, yes I guess so. I copied it from somewhere. :> 21:52:33 It calls something like .... "Set oShell = CreateObject ("Wscript.Shell")" 21:52:35 and then .. 21:52:39 thasmo: The issue then appears to be with the VBScript. 21:52:41 "oShell.Run ..." 21:53:21 I don't think I can help with that though, since I'm not very familiar with how VBScripts run. 21:54:46 gluxon, would it be possible to use the launcher to call the exe file with parameters? 21:54:58 Yes. 21:55:06 You would have to create a launcher ini. 21:55:24 thasmo: Do you want me to guide you through that? 21:55:28 gluxon, is it complicated? Do I need programming skills or some type of programming environment set up? 21:55:34 Not really. 21:55:42 All you need is the PortableApps Launcher Generator. 21:55:51 And about 3 lines of INI code. 21:56:08 Grab it here -> http://portableapps.com/apps/development/portableapps.com_launcher 21:56:25 gluxon, basically I want to make cygwin portable and, if possible, maybe as PAC app I guess. 21:56:49 thasmo: Your best bet is to use the Launcher then. 21:57:39 gluxon, launcher wants to install on Desktop - thats ok? 21:57:56 Anywhere writable is fine. Desktop is ok. 21:58:09 k 21:58:12 done and launched 21:58:13 After it's installed, go into App\AppInfo 21:58:23 yep 21:58:24 Of the app you want to create the shortcut. 21:58:40 Create a new folder and call it "Launcher" 21:58:58 Then create a file, call it CygwinPortable.ini 21:59:27 k 21:59:37 At the top type in this. 21:59:39 [Launcher] 21:59:56 yep 22:00:04 ProgramExecutable=cygwin\customEXE.exe -someparameters 22:00:23 ProgramExecutable= starts looking from the App folder. 22:00:35 So if you have App\cygwin\cygwin.exe type in cygwin\cygwin.exe 22:00:42 And enter your parameters after that. 22:01:03 gluxon, where would I put all Cygwin files? in the root directly or under App/CygwinPortable ? 22:01:19 Under App\cygwin 22:01:37 ah k 22:02:44 In App\AppInfo create an appinfo.ini file. 22:03:22 Then go here -> http://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format#appinfo 22:03:35 Copy the example in the text field and fill it out. 22:03:40 For your own appinfo.ini 22:04:04 Once that's done, start the PortableApps.com Launcher Generator and point it at the CygwinPortable folder 22:06:10 k lemme clean up some stuff first, im on it. one sec. 22:10:23 k k k 22:10:29 fine, starting the launcher now 22:12:10 k its running 22:13:08 looks like this could take some time 22:13:35 well lemme retry. 22:13:39 actually when I start it 22:13:42 there's an error 22:13:56 gluxon, it says "NSIS was not found!" 22:14:52 gonna install this now 22:17:36 gluxon, fails - in the log it says 22:17:58 "Error while loading icon from "C:\...\PortableApps\CygwinPortable\App\AppInfo\appicon.ico": can't open file" 22:19:18 ah 22:19:25 copied an icon there and now it worked 22:23:03 k needed to change some more things but now it works - now I needa figure out how to properly wire everything together. 22:26:12 *** benedikt93 has quit (Quit: Bye ;)) 22:28:28 gluxon, thats weird. if I start the app from the menu it opens 2 cmd.exe windows + the desired app. why is that? maybe I need to reinstall it?! 22:29:29 now it says deinstallation not possible oO 22:29:59 ah k worked now 22:32:00 still opening the app from the menu spawns 2 additional and unwanted cmd.exec windows. weird. 22:34:09 ah if I start it with admin rights its fine. ... even weirder :D 22:37:30 gluxon, can I run the exe file with admin rights automatically somehow? 22:41:28 *** GordCaswell (~GordCaswe@unaffiliated/ve4jhj) has joined #portableapps 22:41:31 GordCaswell is a PortableApps.com developer 22:48:33 Does anybody know if I can start an app from the menu with admin rights by default? maybe it is configurable? 22:51:09 ah probably http://portableapps.com/manuals/PortableApps.comLauncher/ref/launcher.ini/launch.html#runasadmin 22:51:39 *** ParkerR_ has quit (Excess Flood) 22:54:07 *** ParkerR_ (ParkerR@unaffiliated/parkerr) has joined #portableapps 22:54:07 ParkerR_ is some random dude that installed ALL the portable apps 23:28:20 *** GordCaswell has quit (Quit: Leaving) 23:37:46 *** ZachThibeau has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
