Hi, I would like to build an XUL desktop app which can be launched with firefox -app option if firefox is installed. Else I would like to bundle a private copy of xulrunner.
The problem is that windows shows the firefox icon instead of the application specific icon for my app on the taskbar if it is launched with firefox -app switch. I did get the app icon to show by copying xulrunner-stub to the same directory as firefox.exe and start the app with xulrunner-stub. But this is not a good solution as it requires that I mess with the Firefox installation directory during the app installation. Is there any easy solution to this? It would be good to have a -xuldir switch for xulrunner-stub to specify the directory of the xul runtime instead of assuming it to be in the same directory. I thought of modifying the source of xulrunner-stub but it does not build with MinGW and I just downloaded and installed 11 GB of MSVC++ community edition to try the same! Also I read about problems with running xulrunner apps on Mac with the same directory structure. Will the app work without modification if launched with firefox -app option or does it still require a different directory structure. Thanks in advance for any help.
