Hmm, at what did you fail ? Downloading something, or making it work ? I've had partial success with building CABs as you know. I have the feeling that there's some "rule" about all this that we might be missing. Maybe if I knew what not to do, I could rewrite the package file, and the tool would create a fully functional cab. Would it be worthwile to collect a couple of cabs and try to analyse them ? > It appears Sourceforge has screwed up their site such that developers > are expected to provide *one* downloadable file for all users. One per platform, actually. > Unfortunately, I need to provide a .zip file to Smartphone owners and > a .cab to PocketPc owners (there's no unzip on PocketPc!) That should not be a problem, look at what I did with the 0.59.1 release at http://sourceforge.net/projects/cegcc/files .
