1. bound & shroud info ?
hello,
Just a little question about the process of Bounding and Shrounding a prog:
What does become the included files during the process ?
Does all the files are compacted into the .exe or do only the used
procedures and functions are packed within ?
If they are all packed into the .exe, couldn't it be more accuracy to take
out the unused proc and func ? Then the final size of the .exe would be
smaller than ever . . .
What about the idea ?
If it is allready done, sorry for the question ?
Thank's for the great job done with Euphoria ! ! ! !
Bye....

All the functions/procedures are packed in,
even if they aren't used. It should only add at most a
few percent to the size of your .exe. I intend to optimize
this in a future release.

Gosh, I wish this were true. Binding a program using win32lib adds 81kb. to
an exe. If our program is only 600 byes, ( David's ex02.exw, for example
).... we probably aren't using 80% of this additional code and 'constants'.

Yes, you are quite right. I forgot about that case.
I was thinking about the typical DOS32 case.
