Project exe corrupted after add TeeChart 8 and TeeTree

Post by Wheb » Wed Apr 22, 2009 2:27 pm

Hi,

I have a big project made with Delphi 6. The 'exe' file size is 47 MB now.

After migrating from TeeChart v5 to TeeChart v8, my clients who have Windows 98 cann't run my software anymore.... FILE CORRUPTED error.

Investigating, I found that is a system resources limitation in Win98.... and a workaround for this may be use the UPX file compressor. OK! My exe's size reduced from 47 to 9 MB!! And runs fine on Win98.

But after add TeeTree components on my project, I have the FILE CORRUPTED error.. and compressing with UPX don't solve.

With Win2k, XP or Vista, all goes well... but I have a lot of clients that use Win98.

Could anyone help? It's urgent for me.

Thanks.

Hi Wheb,

I'm afraid that we haven't too much experience with UPX. Notice that selecting "Build with Runtime Packages" also reduces considerably the final exe's size. Could you try if this works at your end?
