How to add additional files into Native Installer?

I tried that. Unfortunately it doesn't work. In my application folder after installation are:

1) The .exe

2) The .swf

3) A mimetype file

4) META-INF folder

That's it.

I have 2 extra xml files and a .txt file in the application/src folder. I choose Export Release Build->Export to native installer->Export and sign with certificate->Finish.

Can you please help?

I also tried adding those files to the project so they appear in the package explorer as files under the src folder of my project. That didn't work either.

I'm getting this error trying to build it as an AIR application:

Error 306: Descriptor must support the profile desktop, mobileDevice, or extendedMobileDevice.

I assume this is because I am using NativeProcess in my application and have my supportedProfiles set to extendedDesktop.  Is that correct?

I'm using Flash Builder plugin V4.0.1 (build 277662)

Thanks!

If I add "desktop" to the profiles I get this message:

This application has been designed for a different device profile and will not run on your system. Contact the application author to see if a compatible version is available.

If I replace extendedDesktop with desktop I am able to build the AIR app as you suggested.  When I install it, same thing as before...the .exe and swf is there, but my extra files (now both sitting in the src folder and added into the project) do not get installed (copied).

The AIR file gets made into the root of my project. When I unzip it, I don't see my files  and I don't see any reference to the bin-debug folder. I do see only the exact files and folder structure that get installed.  So I guess it means my files are not making it into the AIR file in the first place.

I guess I'm  also a little confused.  Why would the "bin-debug" folder be included in an archive file that is going to be installed on other user's machines? Or do you just mean the "contents" of the bin-debug folder? I guess that would make more sense.

I also put extra files in the bin-debug folder and they didn't get added to the AIR file either.

Definitely appreciating the help - anything else I can try because it's pretty important to include those files.

I've copied the files into the myapp\src folder and also tried the myapp\bin-debug folder and still they don't get included.

As you suggested, I posted this in the Flash Builder forums.  That thread is here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/747069

Thanks.

I posted there but there has been no response yet.

I did try creating a completely new dummy app (with no code). I tried all the solutions previously and it didn't work.  Again - even when I manually copy the files into the bin-debug folder they do not appear in the AIR package.

Very frustrating.

I have discovered how to get it to work, but I'm not sure what the problem is. I can consistently duplicate it.

If  I manually copy a file into the myapp\src folder, the file does not get  copied to the bin-debug folder and, thus does not get added to the list  of files to include.  I build my app dozens of times. This file NEVER  appears in the file list under the src folder in the Package Explorer  View.  Even if I close Flash Builder and open it again, my added file  NEVER appears in the file list.

Only if I right click  on my project in the Package Explorer View and select Refresh, will the  file appear in the list.  Then and only then, when I go through the  Export process, the file will appear in the list and be included in the  AIR package.

That seems like a bug to me.  Even if you  said it wouldn't detect the file being added while Flash Builder is  open, it should at least check the project folder when I open it and  update the list with any new files.

I'd still like to  know how to get this to work without manually refreshing the project  although admittedly I won't be adding files to the project often.
