@Nitish, i have no idea what you are referring to? I suspect you have
mixed up two independent threads here.
@Ben, great feedback, as for the icon replacement, you can add that in
the .ini file and put a path to it using the "app.icon" key. The
double-click thing is relatively straight forward, let me nip that in.
As for making the LITE version ... some of the JAR files you can whip
out are fairly obvious, but i think we can definitely make a guidance
document on what is needed for what.

Hi Ben,
The double click on icon part is so low on elitist technical ladder
yet the most often cited reason as the advantage of a mobile app over
a URL shortcut to a WAP site.
So it is a big user perspective need.

Hey All,
I just downloaded OpenBD.Local to give it a while. This is awesome!
Thanks!
I have a couple apps that I made for work that currently run on the
Ready To Run version and it would be really nice to have them run as a
"stand alone" app for other users who aren't familiar with running a
"webserver".
I did come up with a couple of suggestions that would be very helpful.
A little background. In my case, I could be running multiple versions
of OpenBD.Local on the same computer. I've tried running multiple
versions on different ports and it seems to be just great so that
isn't a concern. The main thing is seperating which app is which.
With that said, here we go!
1) The ability to change the icon. This would be great to make the
app a little more customized to the particular application it is
running and in my case, at a glance know which apps are running and
which ones aren't.
2) When you double click the icon, have it automatically open the
app. This would be great so you don't have to rely on right clicking
and choosing open. Just helping the world be lazy, I mean
efficient. ;)
3) A list and directions on how to make a "lite" version of OpenBD.
This may already exist. I just thought about it while crafting this
email. :) This would be really useful for apps that say don't use a
database. Having the database drivers in the lib folder are overkill
to a "lite" app. So if there was something to say what each jar was
for and which ones were safe to remove would be great!
Well.....I think that is it for now! Thanks for all your great
efforts! Very much appreciate over here!!
