| Re: [sequoyah-dev] [Pulsar] Some questions concerning the SDK install feature |
Hey guys,
I adapting the metadata for the JavaME SDK to the new model.
I am having problems with the execute action and there are no examples using it (does it work?). My solution was to put my executable inside of a zip archive and use unzipandexecute.
[David] I have not really tested the execute action since the early days of Pulsar 1.0 since the Nokia SDKs use unzipandexecute, so I don’t really know its current status. The action can be debugged, though, and may have a bug in it. These actions reside in the pulsar core plug-in. It seems they should be doing the same thing at some point (running an executable), so maybe seeing what the unzipandexecute does and compare that against what the execute does?
Now I'm trying to make the content.xml generic so that it works for different platforms. How can I do this? Is this the purpose of the filter tag?
[David] You can try to remove the filter tag. As far as knowing which execution handler to employ, it looks like the code determines what os it is running on from the system property and runs the correct handler. All the support for other platforms besides win32 was added after I finished, though. :P
Tks,
Daniel.
