Hi @lhDream! Please, have a look at this related issue.

Hi @lhDream! Did you manage to fix this issue? JavaPackager is using rcedit-x64.exe command line tool to customize WinRun4j and Why launchers (EXE files) ... maybe you can try it with the EXE generated by Launch4j.

[lhDream]

Hi @fvarrui I tried to use launch4j, but it was also garbled code.

[fvarrui]

I mean use rcedit-x64.exe command tool by your own to modify the description of the EXE generated with Launch4j

[lhDream]

@fvarrui rcedit-x64.exe does modify the EXE file description, but it cannot be executed.

[fvarrui]

Could you give a try to Resource Hacker? It also can be used as a command line tool, and if it works fine, maybe you can automate the "set-exe-description" process calling it from Maven.

I'm sorry I can't help you much more

[lhDream]

I'll try

[lhDream]

The Resource Hacker GUI can use

Hi @fvarrui If the project path contains CJK, the project will fail to package. Example:

D:/test/测试/testProject

[fvarrui]

Hi @lhDream! sorry for my late reply! I'll do some research about this, but I'm not really sure if I can reproduce your issue on my Spanish Windows.

[lhDream]

hi @fvarrui It doesn't matter. It's not a big problem. If you can't reproduce it, you can try the virtual machine.

[fvarrui]

Let's keep this issue opened until we can find a solution. Thanks!

Did you manage to automate the "set description" process using Resource Hacker?

[lhDream]

hi @fvarrui Tried, but failed. Maybe I used it the wrong way

[fvarrui]

Hi @lhDream! I'll give it a try and tell you something ASAP.

[lhDream]

Hi @fvarrui Thanks.

Hi @lhDream! So, is ResourceHacker command line tool working as expected?

[lhDream]

Hi @fvarrui ! Yes!
