Actionscript 3 :: Run AIR App Without AIR Runtime Files?
Sep 16, 2010
I've made an AIR app with Flash Builder 4. Works great but I want to run the app without installing it. So..... when I install the app, I copy the files from program files and paste it on a CD and give it to somebody. He runs it on another computer without AIR runtime with as result that it doesn't work.How can I bypass this? Like some launcher/setup that installs AIR runtime for the client if it aint installed. If it is installed, run the AIR app
Is there any kind of method with any other programming langauge like php to merge multiple flv files to one so that they will stream as a single file with out any between them gap.
I've multiple FLV files, and during run time based on the user's selection i need to combine and merge multiple FLV files into single FLV file and play to the user.so far we are using as playlist with different flv files, but now we need to change the process.Can any one know how can i merge different FLV files during run time and play/download the file in single shot.
According to the Adobe asdocs, Flex framework files are supposed to be able to be loaded at runtime. These localized framework files, the ones that exist at (on windows) C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Flash Builder 4.5sdks4.5.0frameworkslocale, are responsible for items such as button text on Alert Dialogs, and a host of other controls. My expectation is that once these framework files are loaded I would see these resources available in my Flex app.
I've set up my project as follows:
MyProject -src -Flex4.5 -Referenced Libraries
[code]....
Now the asdocs state that in order to do this, you have to set the compiler settings to read
which I have done.My Build Path Libraries for Flex 4.5 - C:Program Files (x86)AdobeAdobe Flash Builder 4.5sdks4.5.0 are set to be Runtime Shared library (of note, the {locale} subfolder says "Merged into code")
But when I change the language in the browser, I'm not seeing any of the framework resources.Also, when I build my project, I don't see any indication of the locale-oriented resource files in the bin-release. Since we only deploy the contents of the bin-release folder (and not the entire project), how is this supposed to work?I am also seeing .swz files in my bin-release (and I know these arent the localized framework resources).
Does anyone have any experience with Runtime Framework Localization?? What am I doing wrong? My expectation is that once I build my project (with the framework resources externalized) that the app would be able to load those resources, but this isn't happening and I am not interested in compiling a different version of my app for all of the locales I support.
Is there a way to add paths to the Flash runtime search path for loading files? Say I want to load myXML.xml and its down in /myDir1/myDir2/myXML.xml. Is there any way I can add "/myDir1/myDir2" to the search path so I can just load using the string "myXML.xml" INSTEAD of loading by the full path "/myDir1/myDir2/myXML.xml"? My directory structure will be changing on a semi-regular basis so I can't hard-code the direct path to the file.
I've seen the Loom project, but are there any alternatives that are more mature (and actively developed)? I am looking for something that would allow load-time weaving of pointcuts into existing binary code at runtime with the AVM2 runtime.
I've been into coding for about 5 years now, but I'm a recent convert to Flash development. One of the questions I have at the moment is, considering that SWF files can be run by either Adobe Flash Player OR Adobe AIR, what's the real difference between the two runtime environments? What API's and Objects exist in one environment, but not the other?
Basically what I'm more or less trying to establish is, when would I want to develop an SWF for AIR, and when would I want to develop for Flash Player, considering that Flash Player can also execute locally (providing support for creating "desktop applications")
Whenever I link a set of movieclips together with the bone tool which are inside a containing movieclip, and also set the type to "runtime" instead of "authortime", I get this error when published.
"Runtime symbols with skewed matrices should be wrapped in a movie clip" What does it mean? I need the type to be set to runtime so I can use scripting with it..
I have some files in my src directory, some are .class files (Java class files) and some are .properties files, when I create the Adobe air native installer these files are not included. Why is that? How can I work around that?
Also it excludes .mxml files, but that's good. I'm sure that's related, how to change what it includes or excludes?
I have created a flash file that allows you to click on a thumbnail image and larger image appears ontop of a tshirt. The same way as a gallery would work. The images and thumbnails are pulled in through xml. However I have a problem, I need the images that appear on the tshirts to be .png files or gif files as the tshirt colour can be changed. At the moment my flash file will only display jpegs! I dont knwo why. The jpegs leave me with a white background, so I need the transparency of a png/gif. My actionscript is:
My users upload a certain kind of text file that sometimeshas references to images stored locally on their hard drive. I needto check this file either on the server or within a flash app tosee if it has these references and then grab those images in aflash app to upload to my server.So I can use FileReference easily enough to have users uploadlocal images. But FileReference requires users to select their files with a dialog box. I can't have that. Myusers wouldn't know where to look and there are typically way toomany files, sometimes with the same name but in differentdirectories.
I can also just use URLLoader with a local URL, I guess I canprobably just use Loader too? That works great. The problem here isI can't communicate with both the server and the local filesystemin the same flash application due to Flash's security sandboxrestrictions. So I can get out of those security restrictions byplacing or editing a trust file in designated locations on variousOSes. I then need to install this trust file which is more invasiveand confusing to users then I want to be...Java's method of accessing local files from a web applet bysimply signing the applet with a certificate and having a dialogbox popup where the users grants access is ideal. Is there anything
iam streaming my web cam to FMS .... i have got a latency of 1 -2 second,,,,,, What should i do to reduce the latency,,,,,, is ter any change i can make in FMS files(xml files) in order to reduce the latency......
I was messing around with some old examples, and I ran into an unfinished example where several 30k-100k XML files are loaded and stored as a string into an Array. The code looks basically like:[code]Basically, when I trace the 'this', the order of the files that are loaded is off. Out of about 10 tries, about 3 times the order is perfect. The remaining 7 times, the order is a bit off. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to ensure the files are loaded prior to the next file being loaded? I tried placing a while loop that basically delays the clock for a few milliseconds, and that didn't work either. Besides, that is not really a good solution to arbitrarily waste clock cycles.
I installed Flash CS4 Professional trial version for school use. It wouldn't install successfully. I deleted the font files the troubleshooting guide said to, tried again, but gave up. (I'm afraid to run regedit and mess up everything else I have loaded.) (I previously had the Fireworks CS4 trial version loaded, then uninstalled it.) My problem is this- I have it running, but it saves files and then they can't be opened, even if I use the save function often- it's worse when I create the file, test the movie and then save.If I try to open it again, it says "cannot open file." Once it opened a copy I had saved, and it appeared blank, even though it was 544 kb file size. I only need it for a few more days, one more assignment and I'm afraid my previous files are corrupt. I have Windows Vista Home Edition.
I'm working on making a pretty chunky game engine for games I plan on making, but I was wondering if you make external AS files unopenable such as .lib files, so that if I give it to a friend that wants to use it, he/she cannot change my code. Is there anyway to make external AS files unopenable? Also, obfuscation isn't an option for this problem as it only stops the people who hack the finished product, not stopping people who have access to the actual files.
1) i have palced 2 flash file on my web page.if i stop the sound on this file then the sound on another flash movie placed on my web page also stops.i want both the files to be independent to each other and controlled separately
2)if i click on play it shows loading.even after it loads the file it doesnt change itz status. if i click again on play then itz status changes to play.my codes for flash.....
soundUrl = "test.mp3";
// create sound object, assign properties and events function createSoundObject(){[code].....
my question is to diplay random files , and i have given the code as
[Code]....
one more question is "where i need to store all these movie files. either in samefolder where the flash file is placed. or make it as a seperate folder and or in the flash file library". and one more thing is "how can i place these 20 files in a order like declaring the dimensions on the screen. do i need to put in a CSS.
I am constructing a Flash animation and I was hoping to build it by scenes. These scenes would be individual SWF movies that I could import into my final Flash file in consequential order and when finished I would have a completed Flash Movie. There would be no interaction beyond Play/and replay. Where can I get information on how to construct this and is this a recomended way to do it?
I came across that website to see some products news, then I find there was a nice flash tool. You know that decompiler can edit swf files to fla files. But this tool which I want to introduce to you can edit swf to swf perfectly, amazing right? Plz check it here:URL...
I am trying to prevent users from viewing my site and then simply going into their "temporary internet files" and stealing my swfs and XML files. I have been using a great .PHP code to stop this but now I am working on a server server that only uses .aspx files. Does anybody know of a way that I can stop files from being stored in the "temporary internet files" folder. I have encrypted the files but this is not good enough.
I'm in the process of making a web page that'll successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional ([URL]), but as soon as I place in the fixit.js script under the flash object and view the page in IE, all the flash elements turn white. Quote:
[Code]...
Anyone knows how to place in flash files in xhtml files on IE without manually controls by clicking on the flash file.
So I'm trying out Ogmo Editor with FlashPunk and I've worked out how to load and display XML-based levels. What I want to do next is simplify the process of adding new levels.
Instead of embedding each individual XML into the source, what I want to do is create a single "World" XML file that'll include all the XML levels, embed that, and use it to store all my level data. That way, whenever I add a new level, all I have to do is add it to the world file.
I've done my research and I've found that there are ways of doing so - such as the !ENTITY keyword and XInclude - but I can't seem to get either to compile in FlashDevelop.
I've got an external .as file in the same folder as my flash file. In the process of writing the code, whenever I make a change and then test the movie, the flash movie is obviously still looking at the OLD information. I tried using the "Delete ASO Files" on the menu, to no avail.I can' find these ASO files anywhere on mycomputer.Aha! I tried something else. I quit flash,restarted and ran the same script with no changes. It returned the data correctly, but then gave me this unpleasant message:256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.This is probably an infinite loop.Further execution of actions has been disabled in this movie.There are no loops of any kind in the code, which is below.
//This is the Person.as file: class Person { public var HomName:String = "unknown"; public var HomEmail:String = "unknown"; public var HomPhone:String = "unknown"; public var HomSaveFreq:Number = 0;
I am wonder what tools or options I can use in order to have an object look like it is being drawn out while you watch a flash movie.So far all I can think if is draw it piece by piece over a few keyframes, but that could look choppy and take a lot of time.
