Hi,
I've been developing an Android app to complement a different Android app. I've been able to launch my app from the host app, and pass data using intents and a custom ANE that I wrote. Now I'd like to be able to install my app, without it having an icon in the main App Screen. It's not supposed to be launched on its own, but only through the host app. I've found many references to this on the web, and the solution seems to be to remove these lines from my App Manifest.xml file:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
The problem is that when I remove these lines, the app installs but is still visible on the App Screen.
Some people suggest removing only this line:
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
When I do this, the app won't install at all.
Has anyone tried to do this before? Should this work on an AIR app?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Steve Warren
