Hello, everyone.

I hope that this is the right forum for this posting.

I just began using U++ this evening. It is a very intuitive program. I am having a problem, however, when trying to link programs to .exe files in TheIDE. What is the proper method for doing so? What I did was clicked on Build->Output mode..., but I am not exactly sure if this is correct as when I look at the size of the executable file (just a simple window with a label and a textbox) the size is 11.4MB. Coincidentally, the size of one of the examples included with U++ (the Puzzle sample) was also 11.4MB.

What exactly am I doing wrong and what is the appropriate way to create the executable file for the program being worked on?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Take care.




Most likely nothing. What you got is debug version, 11.4 MB is about right.

Switch the mode to "Optimal" - the you will get the optimized version without debug info. You can do it in either "Output mode" or even using right drop arrow of output mode field in main toolbar (left arrow switches compiler chain).

The right size for basic U++ GUI app is below 2MB (ready FAQ to know why is that so high - in short, U++ apps are selfcontained - do not require any .dll to run).
