ADL is a command-line tool.ADL launches an Apollo application, based on its application.xml file, without requiring that the application be installed.This is a tool very useful for testing and debugging the application.
We call the ADL tool by passing one parameter - Path to the application descriptor file(application.xml file)
Usage :
adl application.xml
Full syntax of the ADL command is :

path-app-xml - application.xml descriptor file for the application that should be launched
