I'm using Adobe Flash CS5 with Adobe Air 2.5 to build an air app. Is there a way to make use of the Air 3 captive runtime feature? Do I need additional software to publish the Air app with the captive runtime?
View 1 RepliesI can't find this information online or in the documentation, does anyone know what versions of Android and iOS the AIR 3.0 captive runtime is compatible with? I'm assuming there is some restriction there, but short of actually compiling a program and trying it on iPhone for example, which I don't have, how can I tell which OS versions are supported?
I know that you can compile an Adobe AIR 2.7(?) application to target say Android 2.2, but what about the captive runtime with AIR 3.0? Also I don't see anywhere to find out the iOS version restriction with AIR, as you have to pay $100 to Apple to even get the SDK which would allow me to make an iOS project in the first place.
I started using Adobe Stratus yesterday and made a simple chat application. Today, I was to learn how to use the group feature. But when I try to instantiate a GroupSpecifier variable, I get this error: 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: GroupSpecifier. P2P.mxml Earlier I was getting a similar error with NetStream (in place of GroupSpecifier). I have Flex 4.1 and it's set to Flash Player 10.1.

View 2 RepliesI know it is possible to run an Adobe Flex compiled .swf from the command-line using the adl command-line tool.
Is there an equivalent way to run a Flex .swf from the command-line using the system installed AIR runtime?
My question applies to OS X, but I'd interested to know about other platforms also.
I am trying to duplicate a flex component at run time. For example if I have this:
mx: Button label="btn" id="btn" click="handleClick(event)"/>
I should be able to call a function called DuplicateComponent() and it should return me a UI component thts exactly same as above button including the event listeners with it.
I am trying to package air runtime and air application in a native installer. i googled a lot on how to achive the same. i found this link [URL]..which says u need ' AIR bundled runtime installer' to package air runtime with air application.
But havn't found any air bundled runtime installer. from where i can download 'AIR bundled runtime installer' alternative way to package the air runtime with air application except badge from web page.
I am trying to create AIR native installer bundled with AIR runtime for windows, Mac and Linux operating system??
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")

View 7 RepliesI created a game in Flash and outputted it into an APK file for use in my Android phone. I would like to make a quit function so that it quits the game application when you leave.
Right now, I have to quit using task manager in my mobile. Also how do you enable it to maintain a high score in the game so that next time the user plays the game again, the high score is still there? Right now, the highscore is lost when you quit the game application.
It seems to me like the biggest arguments against Flash right now falls into three categories:It is slow and battery intensive. Basically that it uses too much CPU than it should. It is not an open standard. Eveyone knows how HTML/CSS and JavaScript operate inside. Flash is not open.It has security flaws which make it insecure.
Seems like all of these concerns could be addressed if Adobe opensourced the Flash player. Third parties could contribute to and audit the code base, and optimize and fix bugs. Adobe could concentrate on making the apps and environments that author Flash content best. Well, Adobe hasn't done that yet. Why not? What are the business/technical reasons that makes Adobe want to keep control of a closed source Flash player?

this is a snippet of that html file but when i add something like to the html file:

I have some shared code between an Adobe AIR App and an Adobe Flex App.
On one line of this code, the program must behave differently depending on if it is running within the Air runtime, or the Flex runtime.
How can I programmatically detect the difference?

I'm just trying to understand how once HTML5 enters the picture, the current concerns about browser incompatibility and other issues go away? Wouldn't HTML5 simply add another set of browsers to the large list of current browsers that the application must target?
That is, assuming the enterprise web app requires one of these new HTML5 features (e.g. playing audio and/or video, integrating SVG or vector graphics, etc.). If such a feature isn't critical then graceful degradation may be acceptable and then my question is moot.
But for those apps that require one of these new HTML5 features, are you planning to support older browsers, or expecting it's acceptable to restrict to HTML5 browsers because the enterprise in question has made one of them their new corporate standard (or other scenario, etc.)?

I'm looking to make a library that can be either merged into a swf at compile time or loaded into a swf at runtime. The way I understand it, .swc files are generally merged into a swf at compile time, and .swf files are generally loaded into a swf at runtime. Is there a way I can have one file that can do both?
