Tarball

Suffix *.wdi - wine-doors installer this is simply a gzipped tarball renamed. However a handler will be added for this item so it can be executed directly from a web browser.

These files can each have their own name, the names here are used only as a guide.

• resources/Installer.exe (optional)
• resources/Icon.png (optional, but recommended)
• resources/launcher.desktop (optional, but recommended
• resources/registryfile.reg (optional)
• scripts/installer.sh (optional *)
• scripts/firstrun.sh (optional **)
• scripts/run.sh (optional ***)
• scripts/uninstall.sh (optional ****)
• pack.xml (mandatory)

• * If this doesn't exist, depending on the name of the installer file wine doors will run "wine Installer.exe" or "wine msiexec installer.msi"
• ** This file is present the first time an application runs it will run this script instead of run.sh
• *** If this file doesn't exist the installer will run "wine appbinary.exe"
• **** Uninstall names should match exactly the XML name tag

Creating

In the future ApplicationPack files will be created using an ApplicationPackDesigner
