B4J Question Standalone Compiled Run Error

[Peter Lewis]

Hi All,
I have not compiled a project to standalone since last year.

I copied a previous project so I can change some of the screen text fields. Then I compiled it and it will not RUN.

In both release and debug, the program runs normally.

It seems like there is a problem because there is no files folder in the final build which should have a .txt and .jar file according to the DOS window under the debug of the standalone folder.

When I click on the program , all it shows is a hourglass then goes away

If I click on run_debug.bat is shows this, seems like it could be of an upgraded B4J version

Ann help would be appreciated, thank you

If it is not used then just remove it.

I guess you are reading the file by File.Read...("../Files", "compiletime.txt"), try to use File.Read...(File.DirAssets, "compiletime.txt") instead
