Hello
everyone.
I am a Java developer and have created a Java application (using
Eclipse RCP) and have exported that using Eclipse tools. My exported
application has a structure that conforms to Mac, namely I have
something like:
ParentDirectory/
MyApp.app/
configuration/
plugins/
and double-clicking on MyApp runs my application without any issue. I
want to "package" this for others in an installer and include a license
agreement and such. I am trying to use the PackageBuilder which seems
to be the tool for this task and I have tried to follow the
instructions but I am running into this issue: after I create the
installer, when I try to install it, it doesn't create the MyApp.app
directory, it only creates the other two directories. I am sure I am
missing a simple setting somewhere since once I was able to
successfully create the correct installer but since then, it has been
failing.
What I do in order to create the installer/package is to drag-and-drop
the ParentDirectory (see above) into the PackageBuilder and then
filling the appropriate fields. I want regular users (with no admin
privileges) be able to install this app in their home directory, no
need to install in the system dirs. The UI part of the PackageBuilder
works nicely.
If you need more specific information, please do let me know so I can
provide the correct info to get help.
Many thanks,
Ali.
