    Hi. I am newbie to this website. I have some questions. My first question is about how to implement self-extracting installers? These programs have the ability to extract files stored within their executables. Secondly, most programs including compilers have the ability to create brand new .EXE files. I know that i can write an interpreter of any new or old language but how to make an independent EXE which can run without the interpreter? Thanks in advance. Waiting for your replys. I just looked around this website. I must say that it is a very nice site for programming. Comprehensive articles are also available. A complete separate section for MFC controls, including subclassing, etc. I also liked the DirectX section. Complete game making like Tetris, RaceX, etc. is given which helps not only to understand game programming but also to inspire our own ideas. Keep up the good work :)

      If all you need to do is create a single-EXE installer, then try Inno Setup[^].
