You may be remembering .eet -> .edj and .eapp -> .eap changes. > > Back to the original question... why go back to .edj? > The .eap format is being deprected. It consisted of a .edj file with certain extra keys specified for application info (name, exe, etc). This allowed the icon image to be tied directly to the application launching information (making it difficult to have launchable apps lacking icons). However, it is also difficult to handle icon themes (as the launching info is then duplicated between each differently themed icon). We now use the more standard .desktop files (which specify the launch info, and a name for the icon, but no actual icon data). However, in order to retain support for animated icons, we've slightly extended the spec to search first for a .edj icon in certain locations (iirc, /prefix/share/enlightenment/data/icons and ~/.e/e/icons). So, the launch data within the .eap files will no longer be used, just the edje data. Thus, moving back to the .edj extension :) rephorm. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
