Determine the files to include in the application
Before you can create a package, you must create an inventory of files needed to run your application, and the absolute path to these files.
Include the following files as they apply to your environment:
- Application configuration files.
- Binaries.
- fglprofile
- Database files
- Images
- Libraries
- Resource files such as topmenu, toolbar, or styles resource files
- Web component files
If you created your project using the Desktop Project (.4pw) or BAM Desktop Project options, you already have the default directory structures to organize and locate project files. In this case, your project directory contains an src directory for source modules and a bin directory for executable files. A default application configuration file (.xcf) resides in the ‘resources’ directory.
Your project may use files that reside outside your source and target directory structures. You do not need to copy these external files to your project directory structure, because the Genero Studio packaging process copies them automatically.
