  1. what is GP32 Free Package?
    1. if you develope any GP32 Free application, it may have another resource files or subfolders other than the executable file(*.fxe). GP32 Free Package(*.fpk) make it easy to distribute your application by combining all the necessary files which are included in your application into one binary file. end-users can install your application using GP32 pc-link application.
    2. what you must renenber is that you should always create one folder with same name as you executable even though there is no file inside it. and, if you need any subfolders or resource files, you should create them in/under this folder. we make this rule to prevent the applications under gp:\gpmm folder from conflictiing each other.

  2. select "FPK" after running GpAppManager.exe.
  3. type all the necessary fields and click "select folder..." button.
  4. now you should select the topmost folder of your application. you should understand exactly what "topmost folder" means. let your application be organized as follows.

    1. C:\projects\MyGpApp\MyGpApp.fxe : executable
    2. C:\projects\MyGpApp\MyGpApp : folder with same name as executable (mandatory)
    3. C:\projects\MyGpApp\MyGpApp\setup.ini : coniguration file
    4. C:\projects\MyGpApp\MyGpApp\resource.data : resource file

    then, the files related to your application should exist in GP32 machine as follows.

    1. gp:\gpmm\MyGpApp.fxe : executable
    2. gp:\gpmm\MyGpApp : folder with same name as executable (mandatory)
    3. gp:\gpmm\MyGpApp\setup.ini : configuration file
    4. gp:\gpmm\MyGpApp\resource.data : resource file

    to do this, first click "select folder..." button, select the folder C:\projects\MyGpApp, and type "gp:\gpmm"(default) in "target path" field. in other words, the upper path C:\projects\MyGpApp is replaced by gp:\gpmm.

  5. produce GP32 Free Package file by clicking "make FPK file..." button. now you can install your application using GP32 pc-link application.
