This section will create a self-signing certificate for you to use to sign your compiled application. This means that your compiled code won't replace the official Huddle compilation if it is already installed on a user's machine. To generate your certificate, open a command prompt and navigate to where the Adobe development tools are in your filesystem. Then, run this command: adt -certificate -cn NAME [-ou UNIT][-o ORG][-c COUNTRY] TYPE FILE PASSWORD where:
Your certificate is generated :) It's valid for 5 years. Packaging the codeThis step will take the code and your certificate and compile them into a .air install file. Use this command to compile the code: adt -package SIGNING_OPTS OUT.air APP.xml Huddle.html imgs scripts styles where:
