INI in EXE einbinden

[NicoDE]

Du kannst die Daten an die Exe anhängen (zum Beispiel mit einem TMemoryStream).
Den Start der anghängten Daten kann man zur Laufzeit anhand des PE/COFF-Headers aus dem Image auslesen.
(so funktioniert das auch bei etlichen selbsextrahierenden Programmen)

Einfacher Weg die Ini an die Exe anzuhängen:

Code:

copy /B Project1.exe + /B Foo.ini Project1Foo.exe

Und zur Laufzeit an die Daten kommen:

Delphi-Quellcode:

unit PE32Stub {platform};
