Overview | ||||||||
Changed: | ||||||||
< < | When you publish the APPX Desktop Client using Java Web Start technology you ensure the most current version of the application will be deployed, as well as the correct version of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). Since the APPX Desktop Client will only be configured on the web server, you will not need to install the client on each desktop in your enterprise, just have the user base run the application for a published URL. This document applies to APPX Desktop Client version 5.0.4b1 and above. These instructions do not require any APPX server configuration other than an APPX Login Manager configured to accept logins. APPX server on any platform may be connected to via the client when launched with Java Web Start. The size of the APPX Java Web Start bundle is about 1.3 MB. When the APPX Desktop Client is run for the first time, Java Web Start will download the entire package ; the next time it will check only for modified jar files (an upgrade) and download them. If this is not the case, the application will start immediately. | |||||||
