ELECTING A PROJECT TYPE
ZENworks Application Virtualization supports two project types:
Application
:
A virtual application project produces an executable file output (
.exe
file) that can be
run directly from the operating system. Application output mode is appropriate for most users and
is the default selection.
Component
:
A component project produces an
SVM
output (
.svm
file).
SVM
is a binary file
format encoding all virtual application configuration and content into a single binary file.
SVM
s
cannot be executed directly from the operating system.
SVM
s are used to exchange virtual
application and component data between multiple virtual applications.
Note: In order to create
SVM
s for use in streaming applications, the project type must be set to
component.
To set the project type, press the
Settings
button and select the appropriate option from the
Project type
dropdown.
