I have the following two projects in in Flex Builder 3:
One AS3 library project (generates a SWC file)
One Flex application project (MXML Application)
The MXML Application references to the AS3 library project (Flex build path). So far, so good. I now want to run code automatically when an application uses the AS3 library. The [mixin] tag should do exactly what I need. [code]...
I have some sample applications. Some of these applications load external assets(images, videos, xml files, etc). The applications always work whether they are run from within my IDE or from an HTML file. So everything is working perfectly and these are the steps I then take:
1. zip up the samples
2. move the zip to my desktop
3. unzip
So now I have a duplicate of what was working perfectly but it has been zipped and unzipped. Here's the thing though: In the new unzipped project directory, the sample applications that rely on external assets no longer function properly when run via their HTML file. XML files don't load, videos don't load, images load but appear to be lacking some meta data. THEN...if I open the project and rebuild the swf it fixes everything. SOOOOOOO...I'm very WTF right now. Why the hell is zipping and unzipping flash applications breaking those applications? If I just copy and paste the project directory to my desktop everything is fine.
I wonder if it is possible to share live video streaming between applications on the FMIS. and also if it's possible SharedObject sharing between applications.
View 1 RepliesWe have several applications, each having a main mxml file with code that calls remote data services using BlazeDS and several modules. The applications communicate with the modules through a shared interface.
We are considering creating a main application that can integrate the above as sub-applications. Is there an issue due to our current apps having modules and remote data services?
I have two web applications written in Flex I would like to integrate. I would like one Flex app (let's call it application A) to invoke second Flex app (let's call it application B). Application A has access only to swf file of application B (not source code). When application A invokes application B, it should be able to pass some data to application B. After application B is invoked it should be able to pass some data back to application A. These two applications will be hosted on the same server, but will use different server code.
The easiest way of implementing this (or one of the ways to be more precise) would be to have UI element on app A (button, link, menu item, etc) that would invoke app B. But in that case, two Flex applications couldn't communicate directly (since only one is active at a time), and they would have to communicate through server code, which is something I would like to avoid.
In short application A should invoke application B, pass some data to it. Application B should do it's work, display some content, and have a mean of passing some data back to application A. I'm aware of LocalConnection, and I've seen similar question, but in that case I would have to have both application in the same browser window. This would be acceptable to some extend, but only if app B is contained in app A (not if they are both on the same HTML page). Would LocalConnection work in that case?
Do you have any recommendations on how to implement this kind of communication?
converting my swf to exe and app. I know that there are several options available. My application will be frequently updated so update feature is essentions for me.
p.s. As another option, I can make app and exe out of a loader app that will load main application module every time it is updated.
my main concern is about build in update feature inside projector eg. Mac app will be able to check for new version of my app automatically...

I'm having trouble with building iOS applications in flash. I just bought an iPad and want to start building apps for it. I hav done simple apps for iPhone before but nothing too fancy. The problem is, I can build it and compile it fine but when I try to install on my device it comes up with the error saying:
"ITunes: 'APPNAME' failed to install." I can compile it as an iPhone app and it works fine. I'm pretty sure I've got my provisioning right because I have both my iPhone and iPad devices added. Anyone got any ideas of why my apps only work while I compile them as iPhone apps?

View 2 RepliesI have an AIR application that is packaged with a network appliance and that is used to configure that network appliance...much like a the embedded webservers on home routers except this is an installed AIR app.
If I want to communicate with the appliance on a port higher that 1024, do I need that appliance to serve up a socket policy file or is AIR considered a trusted sandbox. All the info I find relates to Flash Player and the web, but this particular AIR app is communicating in a closed environment.
we try to develop a flash game engine with several abstraction layers. This flex project contains: an Application (1)-> loading a class (2)-> loading another class (3) which instanciates a Flex component (4).
The loadings uses SWFLoader. The last Flex component (4) is just a Group with AdvancedDataGrid. We do not define skins so I suppose it must take default skin.The problem is that during execution, an error is throwed because default skin for components cannot be found in the Flex component (4). In our case, for the AdvancedDataGrid:
Error #1007: Instantiation attempted on a non-constructor.In mx.controls::AdvancedDataGridBaseEx. The guilty command is: getStyle("headerSeparatorSkin"); which returns null
For the moment, we found two solutions :
the first solution is to add the attribute headerSeparatorSkin="spark.skins.SparkSkin" into the AdvancedDataGrid of the Flex component .
How can align my application to the left in Flex ? The application is horizontally centered and when I resize the browser window it stays centered. It is not css padding, it is flex padding, so I guess I have work with Flex code.
I've tried to add the following properties to the Application container: paddingLeft="0", left="0".. but it doesn't work. Still centered. I've also tried to set "align","left" in the html/javascript code, but it doesn't solve the issue, because the padding is inside the flex application.
I have a requirement to print a bill from the AIR application.
Following are the constraints.
I need to print to a DotMatrix Printer. I have a complex layout with header, footer and a datagrid with data rolling out to more that one page. I need to have a template to which I will be passing my object.The suffice with the usage of Jasper reports, but I have no server side support.I tried the FlexReport, bentbit and other tools which is optimized for the DotMatrix printers.
Is there a alternative to get the above requirements done. Is there any alternative similar to that of jasper reports without going for a server.
When I'm making projects with Flex (or Flash Builer) the end result usually performs much better than a similar level project made with the Flash authoring tool. I know Flash IDE is rather for animations and design heavy works so you can't really compare these 2 tools, but this question is bugging me for a long time.If apps made with Flex (or Flash Builder) are really faster and less CPU intensive - why is that?

I am a beginner in this so I am not sure what would be better. I read that Android API is targeted towards Eclipse, however, I read that Flex allows you to use your apps on Android and iOS at once, reducing the need for two apps.
The kind of app I am building will involve reading data from the gyro, and making some calculations, then reporting it to a server.
