Bundling Objects 
Once the config.xml file and the objects have been developed, the developer can go 
about the steps of bundling the object into a downloadable object to place on the BFS 
carousel (for push download) or on an HTTP Walled Garden Applications Store. 
 
Bundling Applications 
The accompanying screenshot displays the "app_news" application and its 
corresponding config.xml file. In this application, the app_news.html file is the 
initial launch file and the config.xml file is included with settings as described earlier 
in this chapter. This application will appear at location 101 in the Applications menu 
(just under the built-in applications) and as channel 1500 in the Electronic Program 
Guide (EPG). It will not launch when the set-top boots. Instead, it will be displayed 
when launched by the user. It will be destroyed to free up memory when the user 
exits, and it will not show the loading banner. It is not protected upon Vantage low-
memory events; it can be destroyed if memory is needed.
