Prevent JWS from asking about shortcuts

Hi,

How do I prevent my JWS application from asking the user whether to add
shortcuts to desktop and start menu?

I found this:
shortcut element: The optional shortcut element can be used to indicate
an application's preferences for desktop integration. The shortcut
element and it's sub-elements provide hints that the JNLP Client may or
may not use. The shortcut element can contain the optional online
attribute, and the two optional sub-elements, desktop and menu.

but that doesn't answer my question.

Many thanks in advance!

See options -import & -silent

You may try to put an empty "<desktop/>" tag within "shortcut" tag.
