i don't understand...

who is the "user" ?

a user of the application, or another developper that will have to use your code, but whom you want to hide the implementation details ?

you don't have to !!! where would he get them from ?!?!

and you didn't answer mine : do you used to distribute them with your exes ?
if yes, i really don't understand why ! an exe is standalone (regarding of the source codes)

.exe !!! unless you don't build for Windows plateforms ? Confused | :confused:

dude, what files do you double click on when you start a program ?
seriously, are you on drugs ? or why are you so lost ?

oh, i forgot to say ; to have the exe, you must Build the solution (in release mode, it's better for a final delivery)

Dude, that's enough !

now if you have a problem, stop posting a single sentence question. write the whole problem ; explain in details what you have, what you already tried, where it issues...

I actually found myself admiring your restraint on this one.

Why is common sense not common?

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level where they are an expert.

Sometimes it takes a lot of work to be lazy

He stopped distributing the source code files. I need to start thinking outside the box more, as that solution never occurred to me.

that's funny, it's the first time i see someone delivering source codes expecting the user to compile the application before the first use Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

You are obviously no Linux-Expert.
They actually have whole Distributions where you Compile the whole thing from the ground up. WTF | :WTF:

Hmm - I never tried in the last few month. But WINE is making progress...

In fact, giving out the source-code for self-compiling is less common in Windows but not unheard of.

And now I must congratulate you to your patience with this guy Rose | [Rose]

I think he was a troll. If not, he is the living proof why outsourcing will not make us jobless..

don't misunderstand me. of course i know such a thing happen (i'm not an expert of the unix/linux world as you stated, but i know some basics). what i mean is that i had the feeling that the OP was building something for a particular customer of his (not general build for whoever wants it), and don't want to distribute his sources. It's in such a situation that i never heard of anyone working in Software development who didn't even know how to build a program...

nope, i'm pretty sure he's not, because i already saw him there asking some intersting questions (newbie questions btw). I think that he is just lost in his mind...

No it doesn't you would have to download other software to compile it in linux (i forget the software but you can get it free).
