I have a demo application using Adobe Air that accesses my own SSL web service that uses a self-signed certificate. In .NET clients, I can explicitly handle (and ignore) certificate warnings and suppress them via the ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback. I've examined the URLRequest and URLLoader classes but haven't found anything.
View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know how to recompile Adobe Flex 4 framework RSLs?
I'm using the compiler directive -dump-config to get the build config file that the FlashBuilder IDE is using for compiling my application. I then pass that config file into the mxmlc compiler so I can build from the command-line. The results of the command-line build are output to a folder other than bin-debug. bin-debug is a localtrust path, and it will an application will run from there without error. A Flash application in any other path requires configuring the Flash Player to trust that path OR that the compile be done with the -use-network=false directive. I prefer latter since I'll be distributing the results to lay users for evaluation, and I don't want to request that they modify Flash Player security settings.
The build config file doesn't specify that framework RSLs be rebuilt using the -use-network false directive. FlashBuilder itself doesn't even compile framework RSLs. It merely copies RSL swfs from the framework directory into the bin-debug. Those swfs apparently were compiled by Adobe with the default -use-network=true.

View 2 RepliesI have configured FMS 4.0 to do RTMPS on port 443. To test it, I created a self-signed certificate and then imported the certificate as an authority in my browser (Firefox). I don't want to go and get a real certificate until I can verify that FMS is able to do what I want it to.I included the path to the certificate and the private key in Adaptor.xml in <install dir>/conf/_defaultRoot_/That's the only file I have modified.[code]In the NET_STATUS handler I always get the following error: NetConnection.Connect.CertificateUntrustedSigner.

View 1 RepliesI would like to take advantage of Adobe's Runtime Shared Library system for swc's, but I'm not sure how it ACTUALLY works, like the programming behind it. I understand that it allows you to load SWCs at runtime, but how does it do that?
I'm asking because I would like to try to mimic something like the Signed RSL "swz" system Adobe uses to cache the Flex Framework into the Flash Player, so if you ever visit a site that downloads the Flex framework for some flash website, then the next time, and forevermore, you don't have to download it again.
I can't do this because I'm using my own version of the Flex SDK from the Sandbox, and I have like 5 other swc's I'm using (Mate, RestfulX, etc.). I would like to be able to cache these things permanently, and only have them re-download them if they change.
How do I do that, or what should I read, other than the Adobe RSL docs and such? Can I use javascript or ruby to do this?
I have a Flash Player ActiveX control embedded in a .NET WinForms application and am trying to load a SWF into the FP control over an HTTPS url. In development I'm using a self-signed certificate and it seems that in this scenario I can't get FP to accept the certificate and allow the HTTPS communications.When I try to load the swf over https directly, I don't see the swf and when I right-click on the control I see "Movie not loaded". I can load the swf over http and then try to make Flash Remoting calls over https. I don't expect this to work by default but I added a crossdomain.xml file to allow insecure communications. The crossdomain.xml file is in the root of the server but is not loaded. I added an explicit call to loadPolicyFile with the full https url and the crossdomain.xml file is still not loaded. The local IIS logs don't show any request for the file at all, nothing in the HTTPERR file, and Flash's policyfiles.txt log says URl...If I host the swf in a browser, then the browser prompts to accept the certificate and everything works fine. I've accepted the certificate in IE and Firefox.I also tried calling DisableLocalSecurity() on the FP ActiveX control but it had no effect. I didn't really expect it to since I'm not actually loading the swf locally, it's loaded from a url.Can anyone confirm if the self-signed cert really is the problem? Is there a way to get FP to accept the certificate? Any way to bypass the http/https restriction (this is a locally installed app so I can change any local config files we need)?
View 1 RepliesWe have an application that works no problems on our server with FMS in test mode. As soon as we enter our FMS license key we get this error: "application is not a valid signed application loading access denied".We removed the license key and it works again, but with user limits obviously, so this is not an acceptable fix.
View 5 RepliesI'm making an iOS app using AIR 3.1 and Flex 4.5.1, and if I package it using -target ipa-test-interpreter the ipa file installs with no problem, it just runs kind of slow. If I use -target ipa-debug or -ipa-ad-hoc then the install fails with the error message "A signed resource has been added, modified, or deleted."
View 1 RepliesWe are building a fairly complex application that we need to be able to release different parts of at different times. To help us solve this problem we are using RSLs and Modules.so let me describe the projects (names have been changed to protect the innocent)[code]We have one application client that loads the areas of the application as modules. We have a core RSL that does things like login and holds entitlements and provides an API for the modules to access this sort of state and also to communicate with each other.
When we load client we only want the core rsl to be loaded as that is that is currently required. When the groceries module is loaded we want the groceries rsl to load and likewise when the bakery module is loaded we want the bakeryCore rsl to load.In reality this isn't what happens. If we set the projects up like that at run time the core rsl loads at application startup but the module RSLs do not load when the module is loaded. If we run an application from the project that houses the groceries module then he rsl loads when the application loads but not when the module does. We need a way of loading the rsl when the module loads.At the moment we specify groceriesCore and bakeryCore in the client application so they all load when the client loads. This is obviously not a good idea as when we add another 30 departments we don't want all these departments being downloaded at application startup - we only want them to be downloaded when they are required - when the application loads.
how exactly RSLs work with AIR? I have a terminal server that runs several instances of a very large AIR application, which unfortunately has 100M RAM on startup and 200 after a bit of use. This is obviously not really workable, and I'm thinking that RSLs may be a solution if they're cached on the machine. However I haven't been able to find much of anything on this, and I'd really like to know if anyone has.
On a second note, what are some good ways to reduce the initial memory size of an AIR applicaiton?
I've been working on a SWF that will be converted into a Projector file, no particular great shakes but some fun logic driving some aspects. Written Flex 4.5 it has been a doddle until I test the projector on a new / clean machine and without (v important this) a network connection. What happens is the movie fails with an... Error #2032: Stream Error: URL: file:///C:|/mydirectory/framework_4.5.0.20967.swz
after some research I realise this is an RSL (Runtime Shared Library) that is cached on the local machine (WIN7) under the 'C:Users\AppDataRoamingAdobeFlash PlayerAssetCache<8 Char Path>' along with a host of other RSLs. But in my disconnected state it doesn't work, however, if the machine is connected it does work (by downloading and caching the appropriate libraries from Adobe). Unfortunately I need to deploy this Projector file as a single entity and often into disconnected scenarios. Reviewing Flex's build options I've selected 'Merged into code' for the Framework Linkage that I assumed would create my single, deployable object but alas no.
I have a project that is for several customers, the only difference is in the DB, everything else looks the same, except for the main page's text. That is loaded from an external swf file. I created a library, compiled it as an swc, imported it and using it as an RSL. The problem is that if once I've opened the page, and afterwards update the rsl (because changes in the text are needed), than it's already cached by the browser (not the flashplayer's cache but we shouldn't discuss this please!) and the updated swf won't be loaded. If I use it as an external, the page won't even start up (the browser says it's loaded, but it's blank, not even the loading progess bar of flex appear)
<local:MainPage includeIn="default" currentState="{MainPageState}" id="Page"
width="100%" height="100%" />
this is the code on the main page, if I comment this out, than the whole thing loads, even with the use of the "external" link-type. in the design view, I see the component, but I get a warning for the library:
Design mode could not load MainPage.swc. It may be incompatible with this SDK, or invalid.DesignAssetLoader.CompleteTimeout)
What is the URL that Flex 4 uses to download RSLs at runtime? I want to check if I have access to this URL and that it is not blocked by the proxy that I am behind and would like to be able to put the URL into a browser to do this.Obviously there are many URLs (one for each swz file), but does anyone know what the basic URL pattern is, or can anyone give me a sample URL?

View 1 RepliesI have a rather large Flex SWF and am breaking it up into separate Modules. There is some overlap between the modules and I want to put all of this into one shared RSL. The problem is that this RSL gets really large as soon as I use any Flex code because it has to include the Flex Library.Flex Builder doesn't seem to give me the option to use the Flex framework RSL in a library. Also compiling with compc and passing the runtime-shared-library-path doesn't seem to actually use the rsl.So it seems like this is something that is unsupported? Does anyone have any idea how I can do this? Is it just not possible? Is this something that is likely to be supported in the future or already supported in Gumbo?

View 1 RepliesWe're working to build the front-end of our application and struggling with selecting a good UI framework since we're not experienced UI people (we're mainly back-end developers). The central issue is that we don't know what we don't know and don't know how to best weigh our different options.At the moment, we're evaluating Flex, ExtJS, and Vaadin. Is there another option we should consider? What, are the major elements we should evalutate on?
