>>May I use this thread to talk about bundling and protection?
>>
>>>My POS application written in VFP 9 works well with Atom PC. But I can't protect exe with exe protecters for Atom PC because of slow performance issues.
>>
>>We already discussed "VFP" protection. I currently still use an old registered version of Molebox - kept on an oldish PC with this only use - to compile our executable, activeX and other dll into a single standalone no-install executable. Around 17M including the GDI+ dll and a host of COM-based registrable dlls.
>>
>>It works perfectly and the load time is reasonably fast (including on my few ATOMs). We have had zero installation issue since inception (zipped resources and plain copy). Zero need for admin rights as well. This is essential since the package is installed in large corporate headoffice with restricted access to hardware.
>>
>>The molebox project is now an open-source one - of course this is C++ - and can be run for free. Would you be interested in making sure it works for VFP?
>>
>>THIS WOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION TO VFP IMHO. Compact executables, Zero installer, zero access to our code base (the source is defoxed on top) and zero admin hassle!
>>
>>Only issue: we may need some support to make it work again. I could pay or do part of the work but will not do it alone. My C skills are grey nineties (I code K&R C in early 1990 watcom. Not one line of C since that time!). But once this correction to github source is made, it could take its place among the free stuff available for VFP.
