The contents of this file should be sufficient for you to proceed with development. The sub-elements (information, security, and resources) are self-explanatory. They respectively convey information about the application (such as the Vendor, a brief description, etc.), security restrictions, and the resources that are available to the application context for execution.

The other notable elements operate as follows:

<application-desc main-class="MyApp"> 
    <argument>argument-1</argument> 
    <argument>argument-2</argument> 
</application-desc>
