Hi, i have seen many tutorials with ANT to create a AIR App file like => MyApp.air <= Like this tutorial => Marvin Blase AIR 2 and FDT 4

So i have found a way to do that WITHOUT Ant… It’s easier and u don’t have the trouble with the description.xml…

So let’s beginning and make our first AIR App with FDT

THE IMPORTANT FIRST STEP => U MUST RUN UR APPLICATION (NOT IN DEBUG MODE) <= THIS STEP WILL CREATE A DESCRIPTION.XML

1. Right click on ur project => Run => Run Configuration …

2. Click on FDT AIR Application Release => New launch Configuration (the small page symbol)

3. After click on the symbol they will be create a child under FDT AIR Application Release…
U see now 5 tabs… The first tab is Main please type or browse ur target file…

4. NOW the important if u RUN ur application FDT will create a description.xml and for default it WORKS … U find the description.xml in => bin/{project_name}-app.xml

5. Please insert now ur certificate… if u don’t have one u can create one in the same window, i think it’s self explanatory how to create a certifacte if u need help tell me and i make a small screencast… DON’T FORGET TO TYPE UR PASSWORD!!!

6. NOW THE IMPORTANT STEP => u must insert ur swf and asset’s files.. Add ur SWF’s what are u needed and the assets/images/mp3 folders…

7. THE FINAL AND MAYBE LAST STEP => CLICK RUN

8. IF U NOT FOUND UR AIR FILE DO THIS STEP’S

9. Right click on ur project and click on REFRESH

So i hope i help u and u will try it and give some feedbacks… Do u have question’s so feel free and ask me…
