Getting started with XULRunner - "Couldn't parse application.ini"

Getting started with XULRunner - MDC

So after working through this example for a bit on OS X I kept receiving "Couldn't parse application.ini" after attempting to use xulrunner-bin with my application.ini.

It turns out I was using a relative path:


/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin ./application.ini


thus causes the error, but:


/Library/Frameworks/XUL.framework/xulrunner-bin ~/Documents/Xul/myapp/application.ini

succeeds.

Thanks for this quicky. I was looking all round to fix this problem and didn't realize it was so easy. Anyways, thanks again... great work.
