Projects compiled with "Raw Output Type" cannot be run directly 
Category: Problem 
Applies to: Kivati Studio 

Projects compiled with an output type of “Raw Output Type” cannot be run directly.

Details

The raw output type is used to produce a dynamic link library (.DLL) from your project instead of the usual executable (.EXE). This type of output cannot be run directly and must instead be consumed by another program or used as an aggregate.

If you try to run a project compiled with this output type using the Execute button in Kivati Studio, you may receive an error message at runtime such as the following:

Kivati Studio has encountered an error.
The specified executable is not a valid Win32 application.

To run a project from Kivati Studio, ensure that the output type is either "Standalone" or "Standalone GUI".

More Information

This behavior is by design. For more information about this output type and aggregates, see the Kivati documentation.
