3.7 Adding runtimes and components
Many components and runtime systems consist of large, complex sets of filesystem entries and registry settings.
To simplify configuration of the most common components, ZENworks Application Virtualization contains a
collection of pre-configured component settings which can be added to your virtual application with a single click.
To add a runtime or component, click on the Runtimes tab on the ribbon bar. Then, click on the appropriate
runtime or component to select it for inclusion. Selected components are indicated with a highlighted button. To
remove a component, click on the button again. This toggles the component inclusion state.
For example, if your application is a .NET Framework 2.0 application, then selecting the .NET Framework 2.0
component will allow your executable to run on machines without the .NET Framework installed.
Important: Depending on the size of the component, selecting a component for inclusion can significantly
increase the size of the resulting executable. Therefore, you should only select components which are required for
proper execution of your application.
Important: You are responsible for assuring compliance with licensing for any third-party redistributable
components included in your virtualized application.
Configuring the Java runtime
ZENworks Application Virtualization provides specialized support for the Java runtime. If your application is
based on Java runtime, press the Sun Java Runtime button on the Runtimes ribbon bar. This displays the
Java configuration menu.
Select the appropriate version of the Java runtime from the Java runtime version dropdown. If you are
deploying your application as a set of .class files, then select the Class option from the Startup type dropdown; if
you are deploying within a .jar file, select the Jar option. Enter the startup class name or Jar name in the
appropriate textbox, along with any additional Java runtime options.
