Can you answer this?

Okay so I compiled my own launcher application in Visual Studio but it doesn't have a icon? I can only add a icon to the short cut of it. Is there a way to add a icon to the application itself? When I right click it and go to properties I don't have any option of icon changing just like Read Only and Hidden and that stuff. If you know how to add it please help! Thank you.

Haven't watched lesson 5 of the intermediate series yet, but I think it might be explained there.

Othervise, just look at the Windows.cpp. There should be a class start function where the imported application icon is defined.

You'll probably find a detailed explanation by googling.

You need to create a compiled resource file and add it to the project. It will build the icons into your executable then. Try googling for a free resource editor.

Hi slowjunkin9,

I am attaching the resource editor I use. It is very good, and does the job.
