Here's my problem. I need to deploy an air app on a CD. I
also need to assume the user has no internet connection. In a
perfect world here is what I want the user experience to be.
1. User inserts the CD.
2. A windows is automatically displayed that allows the user
to install the app if it's not installed already.
3. If the app is installed already, the app just starts
automatically, or a window comes up with something to click on to
start the app.
I need this to work on both a mac and pc.
It sounds like you can do this with a custom Badge swf, but
from what I read, the Badge swf needs to be on a web page that has
internet access because it use air.swf from the Adobe site.
Does anyone know if something can be done like this when
deploying your app from a CD?
Any alternate ideas of a user experience are also invited.
The idea is that I have to assume the users are clueless, after
all, they don't have an internet connection, so I need to make this
as simple as possible.
Thanks.
