CDMenus
In this book will be one page for each CDMenu.
In this page is a general overview of CDMenus and their filestructure.
Programmatically the CDMenu consist of a Form and maybe a database. The propertys of the form are exposed on "Customize Manager" where can be modifyed accordingly to the user preferences. If the CDMenu is driven by a database , the "Data manager" provides an editor for that database.
The file strucutre is as folows: When you create a new project , a folder with the project name is created. This is the project folder. You must burn the conted of this folder on your cd. In that folder there are:
- "Data" folder. The end user must NOT modify or delete this folder. In there are files that autogenerated by CDInterface Studio. There is a "Bin" folder where are all the executables and librarys necesary for the CDMenu to run (mostly .net). The "DB" folder contains the database file.
- "My Files". The end user must put all his files in this folder. This folder is autocreated by CDI for the user.
- "Autorun.exe" . It is a win32 executable that launch the "Data->Bin->Autorun.exe" which is .net . For the moment is just doing that. In the future might check if the .net redestributable package is installed , and if not prompt the user to install it.
- "autorun.inf" . It is for windows to enable autorun.
- In the future might be more files like icon.
