Self-Extract -
Hi, I wish to create some self-extract tool.
For instance, I have a executable file (*.exe) and a data file (*.dat). The data file (*.dat) will be update from time to time. Inside the *.dat, basically is a series of compressed binary file & respective file properties. (I manage to create and extract the information back).
what I would like to have only 1 executable file being download into my client PC. Then this executable file will be self expand later.
Currently what I doing is, on each time there are some update on the data file (*.dat), I need to manually include it into my self-extract application as a custome resource. Then thisself-extract application will read the data file (*.dat) from it own resource table and follow by read the bindary data block-by-block (according the file size information in the data file.
The problem it, this was too time consuming for me and I would like to build a tool (application) which will create the data file (*.dat) and subsequence insert this data file into the self-extract executable file and output a new executable file (self-extract + data file). So, it is possible for a program to alter an executable file by append some extra data at the end of it (or anywhere within the executable file?).
Hope, you uy know what I'm talk above and what I wish to archieve.
