Does anyone have experience with custom application descriptor files and AIR? I'm using Flash CS4 to create an AIR application, and am unable to use a custom application descriptor file with it when I generate the program. I have based mine on the Adobe sample, and used the online Adobe tutorial - which makes it all seem very simple as is the way of all tutorials - to confgure it, but I keep getting errors (syntax usage errors with no indication as to what they might be, can't find an icon and indicating it is missing from a folder I have not identified as the icon folder) even when I use the simplest application descriptor file straight from the Adobe tutorial. I've even got the damn O'reilly AIR 1.5 Cookbook which is equally useless. There seems to be virtually nothing out there describing some of the errors I've had, and I can't begin to enumerate them. But here's one as an example: my xml node for the icons is straight from the sample and is
<icon> <image16x16>icons\AIRApp_16.png</image16x16> <image32x32>icons\AIRApp_32.png</image32x32> <image48x48>icons\AIRApp_48.png</image48x48> <image128x128>icons\AIRApp_128.png</image128x128> </icon> However, an error is thrown telling me that it could not find the icon in a folder called "AppIconsForAIRPublish", not "icons". I even tried creating a folder with this name and copied the icons into it, but found that it was automatically deleted upon publishing and the same error thrown. I wouldn't bother with any of this customization but for the fact that my application needs to be full screen (it's a kiosk program) and AIRs idea of full screen still shows the chrome. Flash, of course, eliminates the bar at top with the min,max and restore buttons so that the interface is clean when full screen. No idea why AIR does it differently. If anyone could even simply point me to some half-decent documention out there for AIR using Flash, it would be greatly appreciated.
