Flex :: Flash - Builder 4 Does Not Show Export To Native Installer Option?
Aug 26, 2010
i am using Flash-builder 4 and developed an application to capture screen image and save on desktop.But when i click the export button , the flex builder shows me the option to export to file only as shown belowI have downloaded latest air sdk and overwrite file in sdk4.0.0 , now air app works but how will it show me the "export to native installer option"??
How can i create native installer for windows, MAC and linux, which will check the system if air runtime is not install in the user system then installer will 1st install the AIR runtime and then the AIR application.
Do we need to use any third party software to achicve this?
For checking system wether the AIR runtime is install or not Do we need to write custom script or installer will automatically get things done.
Air allows for seamless installs (aka, "badge installs") from the browser, as well as launching an Air app from the browser. Air 2.0 has the Native Process API, which requires packing the app as an .exe/.dmg rather than a .air file. My question: does the badge install process support seamless installation of native Air installers?
I'm trying to follow this page to launch my AIR native installer application from the browser using "browser invocation"I've loaded the 'badge' sample app into a new "Flex Project (Web)", and made the appropriate changes to the 'AIRBadge.as' file. But I can't seem to use FlashBuilder 4.5 to compile a new 'badge.swf' file which includes my changes.
I want to create a native installer for windows, mac and linux machines, Instead of .air file I want to create .exe , .dmg and .deb files respectively. So that i can enable the application to be installed natively.
I will not be hosting the .swf file and I would like to include images using Flash Builder 4. The images appear in a folder in the exported version and I'm not sure how to "embed" them into the .swf (so that I can deploy the file to sites like Kongregate, etc.)
Seems like it should be simple, but my Google fu is currently poor.
Edit: Note, I would like to continue using the Flex framework, which is what I am using now.
I am developing a project with Flex, and I need to deploy my project in a form which can be used by developers who do not have access to Flash Builder. I've found references to plugins from Faratasystems, but it appears their sourceforge site is a little bit rusty. I could not find an up to date installation file that'd include FX2Ant plugin and work with my Flash Builder 4
I recently came to know about the adobe flash builder with flex in latest release it supports to achieve the benefits of flash for iOS apps.As i am looking for a calendar based app,before taking the Adobe flash builder as a solution, i would like to be clear on the following queries.
What limitation is there of the ipa file generated from FB 4.5 as opposed to a core COCOA touch based solution What are the performance differences between the FlashBuilder app and natively built iPhone app. Is there any limitation of building a HTML5 based app given the calendar functionality apart from look and Feel.
i have an error that i dont understand why appear, the most weird is that happens sometimes but lately happens always, the code that i use is the same and i dont have make any changes to it, in fact i dont execute any code in the start of the application, i use buttons , so i dont get a reason with this error please help me, the error is a dialog that say:Native extension Error: there are packaging errors/warning. Check each native extension in the Flex Build Packaging Page for each target platform. would you like to continue?And when i click yes the program dont start, the debbuger show me the line:
I have a colleague who will be using Adobe Flex and adobe flash builder to design the application. The final application will be in that software. I am creating the database features and testing them using online browsers.What I want to know is that some alerts I am getting a 'prevent this message from multiple dialogues' message on the alert but this is because of the browsers. But if the application is on flex and flash builder (I don't know which one is where the app is stored coz I have never used it) then will that message appear on some alerts in that software or is it only on browsers?[code]
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 an AIR application i'm trying to release with flexbuilder. Launching application has no problem ... bin-debug dir is correctly filled with my files. But when i want to create the AIR file (export release fuild), AIR files content view is empty and bin-debug directory is never filled.
I am new to flash builder. I made an mobile app in Flash pro and it works fine on iOS/Android. I tried to export it to BB Playbook and I got a problem. I have all keys, certificates and software installed. I have read few tutorials about it, and I got an .swf in my project. It runs perfectly in simulator(Debug build). But when I build release build I get an empty .swf file inside the package. There is an .as file in the project with same name as .swf, which I guess is compiled to swf and replace it.[url]...
I mean from AS3. My application is just a swf and is run by a simple Flash Player (Proyector). It isn't neither AIR nor web-embeded.I need to access to some Flash Player's options to create a default state. For example: every time my application is run I need to activate "100%" view and centre the Flash Player on the screen (desktop).
I'm developping a mobile application in Flash builder. So in Flash Builder Burrito , I was using the Flex Hero SDK 4.5.0 but they currently realesed the Flex4.5.0.20967.
I downloaded the zip file [URL]
I extracted it into a map on my C: drive. Then I opened my flash builder burrito. Added him by (Window>Flash Builder>Installed Flex SDK's. I his add and added my location.
This went very well. I changed my code with the new commands.
Next I wanted to test on my android phone but now my problem: I can't make any apk files anymore.
I'm working on a mini-site and there is this opening page with some text bla bla and I need to give the viewer the 'don't show this again' option. I've discovered the components in Flash (yoo-hoo) and so far I've dragged a checkbox to the stage and only been able to change its label in the parameters in components inspector.
The opening page is in scene 1 and I just need the movie to play scene 2 frame 1 if the checkbox is clicked. How do I go about this? I'm very confused with event listeners etc. Could anyone give me a "for dummies" walk through?
I am new to using Flash, but with some helpful YouTube tutorials and various Google searches, I was able to create a slide show that automatically transitions to the next after 6 seconds. I also thought it would be neat if I could give users the ability to go back or forward or jump specifically to a certain slide. But my problem is that after I click a button, the timer seems to be off.
I'm having an issue when trying to export the release build of my AIR application in Flash Builder 4.5. After choosing the key to sign the package and clicking finish to complete the export, it errors saying that "Error occurred while saving the project settings: "default" build target cannot be found for the selected project." I've included the error message output to the log in the .metadata folder.
!ENTRY com.adobe.flexbuilder.project 4 43 2011-05-10 15:56:11.432 !MESSAGE Failed to get build target settings: default !STACK 0 java.lang.Exception

I have tried what J_A_X has recommended. Unfortunately none of those work. It seems to be a problem somewhere within the project settings. We have also tried running the export release build for this project on different machines with fresh installs of flash builder, but the same error message is produced every time. We've looked through so many settings it may come down to having to create a new project and copy all the code into the new application.
In flexbuilder 3 for some mxml files I can purposely put in syntax errors and the compiler will seem to compile the specific page(but actually not compile it) or report any errors for that page. Is there any way that you know of to get the compiler to report the errors to me so I can get it to compile the page. I've tried rebuilding all and cleaning the project already.
I wrote an app using adobe flash builder that makes an http data service call to a website.
When I build and launch the app it loads in my browser (the address in the broswer is C:Userspath omyapp.html) and works perfectly. However, when I upload the app to my website or even launch it from outside the project build directory, the HTTP service call fails with the popup
Of course I googled this error and realized it may have something to do with a 'crossdomain.xml' in my web root directory. I tried this and it continued to fail. Below was my crossite domain file
Does anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I just upgraded to Flash Builder 4 (beta 2) from Flex Builder 3 which I have been using since it came out. Problem: All the projects that were in my workspace from Flex Builder 3 did not carry over into Flash Builder 4 (e.g. in the "Flex Navigator" view if FB3). Flash Builder 4 now uses the .FXP format to manage projects, but Flex Builder 3 did not. Is there an easy way to get all my projects back into Flash Builder 4?
where the Alpha Value is located? It is not show up on the properties menu. I'm trying to animate and object to fade in and out similar to this walk through. CS flash 5 seems be different.
I have a drag & drop activity where 3 of the drags can go into 1 of 3 possible dropzones and be counted as correct. On clicking 'Submit', if only some are placed correctly, there's a 'Show me' option - this is the bit I can't do:if some of those with more than 1 possible answer are correct, I don't know how to check which dropzones are free to place the remainder in. My code for the first bit, checking the hitTest is ok:
for (var i:Number = 0; i<aLabels.length; i++) { //3 drag items have 3 poss dropzones: for (var t:Number = 0; t<aNewCorrectDZ[i].length; t++) { //IF ITEM IS DROPPED ON ANY DROPZONE:
I have an AIR project that I was working on Flash Builder 4.5 which now I'm trying to import to my updated Flash Builder 4.5.1 and it is prompting me to fix some paths before the import is completed. I'm kinda clueless what I should put in those fields.

The project access a web server to retrieve data using JSON.
I am trying to migrate a project from Flash Builder 4.0 to Flash Builder 4.5. After Flash Builder prompts me to choose my new SDK, I choose 4.5, Then I get the following error:" error "The required skin state 'disabledWithPrompt' is missing".
