Displaying custom icons in an Adobe AIR application

The following example shows how you can display custom icons in an Adobe AIR application by setting the <icon> node in the AIR application’s descriptor XML file.

Full code after the jump.

<!-- The icon the system uses for the application. For at least one resolution,
     specify the path to a PNG file included in the AIR package. Optional. -->
<icon>
    <image16x16>assets/AppIcon16.png</image16x16>
    <image32x32>assets/AppIcon32.png</image32x32>
    <image48x48>assets/AppIcon48.png</image48x48>
    <image128x128>assets/AppIcon128.png</image128x128>
</icon>

    Your paths are different here. “/assets/” and “assets/”

    Much confusion may be caused by such little things.
