<br>
I want to ship Erlang as a component inside a<br>
larger application to run on Windows<br>
<br>
Assuming the larger application has reserved space<br>
for Erlang at some destination directory $DEST then I need<br>
to copy a subset of the files from a standard<br>
distribution into $DEST.<br>
<br>
On a Mac I have reduced the number of necessary files to 11<br>
(could be 10 if you remove start.script)<br>

├── kernel-5.1.ez<br>
├── sasl-3.0.1.ez<br>
└── stdlib-3.1.ez<br>
<br>
I've thrown away all the libraries apart from compiler etc.<br>
<br>
I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to do the same thing on windows - does anybody<br>
know how to make a minimal Erlang for windows? - which files must be<br>
copied and which files must be patched????<br>
<br>
As an afterthought - it would be *very nice* to have a program which<br>
makes a minimal distributable program for Windows/Mac/Linux.<br>
<br>
I was thinking along the lines of running the program twice - in run one<br>
I'd trace all calls to discover which modules were actually called, then<br>
from this information build a minimal distributable program.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
