  • Patent number: 10353687
    Abstract: A virtual application packaged for a specific executing environment may be executed on a processing device having an executing environment different from the specific executing environment. A reference, included in extracted installer metadata, to one or more key paths of a hierarchically-structured data store may be modified according to a set of rules related to the executing environment detected in the processing device. The modified extracted installer metadata may be provided to an installer for installing the virtual application. During execution of the virtual application, a request to read, write, or modify the hierarchically-structured data store may be intercepted and changed, such that a first key path included in the request may be mapped to a second key path, based on the detected executing environment. Similarly, a response to the request, which may include the second key path, may be intercepted and modified, to the first key path.

  • Publication number: 20190163457
    Abstract: An application packaged for a specific executing environment may be executed on a processing device having an executing environment different from the specific executing environment. A first path of a first executing environment is modified to be a second path of a second executing environment, where the first path is contained in installer metadata associated with an application packaged for operating in the first executing environment. The modified installer metadata is provided to an installer, the application is installed according to the modified installer metadata to create the second path in the second executing environment of a processing device, a request to access the first path in the first executing environment is modified to a modified request to access the created second path in the second executing environment, and the modified request is processed by the processing device.
