And particularly the complaint from the thread that focuses on "program name, orientation handling, icon, permissions"... these are all things that are always done as part of separate languages if not separate files (whether it be .rc files on Windows or Info.plist files and plist entitlements on iOS/macOS).
- quelsolaar 6y agoIn win32 you can set icon, application name and pretty much everything programmatically.
- flohofwoe 6y agoThe actual icon pixel data must exist as a resource though and not as (for instance) a C array of RGBA values (which sort of makes sense because Explorer must also be able to access the icon). I guess that's also the reason why those things are in manifest files on Android (and I think iOS too): they must be accessible from the outside without running the program. I 100% agree that Android is by far the worst platform to develop for though, at least when it comes to native code.
