I have a Flex app that runs in a user's desktop browser. I want to create an AIR desktop app out of it for Windows and Mac.
I'm new to AIR. I'm using Flex 4.10 and Flash Builder 4.7.
This link:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/air_buildingapps.pdf
states on PDF page 244:
Users can install or update an AIR application by double-clicking an AIR file
on their computer or from the browser (using the seamless install feature). The
Adobe® AIR® installer application manages the installation, alerting the user if
they are updating an already existing application.
However, you can also have an installed application update itself to a new
version, using the Updater class.
The first sentence is what I'm trying to achieve. I believe the "seamless installer" enables the user to update the application by clicking an icon on a webpage. That's fine. What about the first part of the first sentence... Users can install or update an AIR application by double-clicking an AIR file on their computer... What do I need to do to get that part working?
Because the next sentence starts "However, you can also...", I don't think Chapter 17 discusses this. I want to avoid doing anything custom if something already exists.
