The glassfish-application-client.xml visual editor lets you edit an enterprise application client's platform-specific deployment descriptor for the GlassFish application server. You open the visual editor by expanding your project's Configuration Files node in the Projects window and double-clicking the glassfish-application-client.xml file.
You get to this tab by double-clicking the glassfish-application-client.xml file under the application client project's Configuration Files node in the Projects window and clicking the General tab in the visual editor.
If any configuration information for an application client is not specified in the glassfish-application-client.xml file, it defaults to a corresponding setting in application-client.xml if an equivalency exists.
The General enables you to set the following descriptor properties:
Specifies changes to default Java Web Start parameters for an embedded or stand-alone application client module.
The default for an application is as follows:
http://host:port/app-name/relative-URI-to-appclient-jar
The default for a stand-alone application client module is as follows:
http://host:port/module-name
If the app-name or module-name is not specified during deployment, the name of the EAR or JAR file without the extension is used. If the application or module is not in EAR or JAR file format, a name is generated and written to the server log.
