I want to make an application using quickly, and I want to make the launcher of this application run as root. How can I do that??

You can use launchers. What distribution do you use? Look here to know how to create a launcher on desktop: how-can-i-create-launchers-on-my-desktop. In the command space, type

gksudo application_name

if it is a GUI, or

sudo application_name

if it runs in terminal.

Mark as executable:

chmod +x launcher_name

Or, Right click and select Mark as executable.

  • I added gksudo to the applicationname.desktop.in at the option Exec. but when I packaged it and installed it the gksudo removed from /usr/share/applications/applicationname.desktop !! – Noux Mar 14 '17 at 20:59
