I'm trying to add a licence.rtf file to my setup project, I've followed this stackoverflow answer step by step in order to add the licence file.
What seems to be happening is when I add the license file it doesn't add it as an embeded resource so when I remove the file from my local machine i get a complie time error...I also do not see any property which let's me change the license file to an embeded resource.
This is the error that I'm getting
Please let me know if anyone has experienced this issue before and how can I go about fixing it
UPDATE:
When you add the licence.rtf file to the Setup Project it does not have a BuildAction property which can be set to EmbededResource.Tried that
I seem to have figured it out. Instead of trying to add the License.rtf file to the setup project I've added it to another project in the solution.
Once done I reference that file in my setup project and when the setup file get's compiled the license file is embeded in the exe.
Click the file in solution explorer, view properties. Then change Build Action to Embedded Resource.
The usual way to show a license agreement in a Visual Studio setup project is as follows:
Go to the User Interface view in the IDE. Right-click "Start" and then Add Dialog, add the License Agreement dialog.
Right click the dialog to move it up or down. Right-click and Properties Windows shows properties where under License you can browse for your custom license RTF file.
