Have Any FileMaker Runtime Solutions Been Accepted on the Mac OS X App Store?

[Otis]

Hi,

 

I've read that there are tricks to get a FileMaker runtime solution consolidated into a single app.

I was wondering if anyone has done this and then successfully had their app accepted on the Mac App Store?

(I don't mean the iOS app store, I mean Apple's App Store for Mac OS X software.)

 

I was considering submitting a small runtime solution I created to the Mac OS X App Store, but this would be paying to be an OS X developer, and altering my solution so that's a single app. I really didn't want to go down this road unless it's possible to have Apple accept this runtime.

 

Any info is appreciated, thanks.

There is only one App Store. What you see depends on which device you use to address the store. And no, I know of no FM runtime solutions for sale on the app store, but I could be wrong. I'm not sure why this is so.

No. There's no way to get a runtime into the Mac App Store. Only Cocoa apps are accepted in the OS X app store.

Thank you all for your replies.

Bummer that runtimes can't be sold on the Mac OS X app store.
