Single file without sources? too small?

[QooScho]

Hello,
I make a test and build my project as a "Compressed Single Self-Installing Exe"
What I expect after build is a large Exe file about 150MB because my project source files about 200-300 MB
But the "Setup.exe" is only 3 MB!
It is not possible that all files are included. In the folder "Release--Single" where the "Setup.exe" is located I see also a DATA Directory.

How can I build a Exe file which contains all the stuff I need?

Dear Aviv,

also with the web deployed build I have a Setup file with 3 MB instead of expected 150 MB
There is also a Data direcotry.
It seems that there is a problem with the IA9 ?

Dear Hansjoerg,

This is not the case on IA10 - please install the trial version and build the same project. Let me know if you get different results.

Dear Aviv,

I have now installed IA10 trial version but the same result.
All build, uncompressed, single and web based setup have the same Setup.exe file size.
And does also have the directory "data" which contains all source files.
Something seems wrong. I think at least in the web based build the Setup.exe file should be about 150 MB and contains all stuff

any idea ?

The problem is that you checked "Debug Build" under the Build section in the Project Options.
When you do a debug build, InstallAware build your setup is files even if you select Single File to enable debugging.


Sorry about that Hansjoerg, I have no idea why I didn't think of this before!
