== Setting up the application.ini file ==
XULRunner first looks at the application.ini file located at the root directory. This file contains metadata which tells XULRunner how to run the application properly. This fype typically contains [Heading] and Key=Values. Also, Lines which begin with characters "#" or ";" are treated as comments.
The application.ini file contains two sections. They are the following with surrounding square brackets:
'''[App]''' Section - This section of the file contains data about the application
<table style="width: 100%;" class="standard-table" cellborder=1 border=1 cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0>
<tr>
<td width="10%"> '''Key'''</td>
<td> '''Value'''</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Name of the application.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Version</td>
<td>Version of the application.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>BuildID</td>
<td>This is the build ID which is unique. Typically this field is a date</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>ID</td>
<td>Unique ID of the application.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Vendor</td>
<td>This is the vendor of the application which is an optional field.</td>
</tr>
</table>
'''[Gecko]''' Section - This section contains information about what version XULRunner is needed for the application.
<table style="width: 100%;" class="standard-table" cellborder=1 border=1 cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0>
