Question

What exactly is "Application with runtime embedded"?

I thought the output option "Application with runtime embedded" was pretty self-explanatory, but when I tried it out I ended up with a folder called MyApp.app that contained all sorts of stuff, including a .exe which is not nearly big enough to itself contain the AIR runtime .dll -- that's in a subfolder... is that what is expected to be the output, or is it not working as intended? I would have expected a single .exe which contained the AIR runtime and such.

Yeah, sounds a little odd....what is your process and tooling to arrive with that?

Are you using the command line ADT or Flash Builder/Flash pro etc?

Hi Dave,

I'm using Flash Pro CC.

I just noticed it also leaves behind a tmp dir also... definitely seems broken, but it does give me that "application with runtime installed was successfully created" message similar to what happens when I choose the other options (AIR file, or Windows installer) which do work fine.

So I understand correctly that "application with runtime installed" is supposed to be basically the same thing as the native installer, but with the AIR runtime included?
