With normal Flash SWF's I use URLRequest to communicate with external servers/sites to send/retreive data from a database - pretty standard stuff. But can iPhone apps published from the CS5 environment communicate with external servers/sites?I'm still organising my development license for the iphone, so want to check before I fork out the money for the registration.
View 1 RepliesI just finished with developing my application by Adobe Flash Professional CS5 and I wonder if this will be visible to iPhones 4 because support for Retina displays was added since CS5.5.
There is section in my info.plist:
<key>UIDeviceFamily</key>
<array>
<string>1</string>
</array>
I want to create an iPhone game with Adobe AIR, and I want that game to be able to store the players details in a MySql server.
What would be the best way to do that? Is it possible to use a standard URLRequest in AS3, and have the iPhone use that to communicate to the PHP on the server, and receive back data?
I am looking to develop basic client server data application to add value to a website.
The website is .net based and opening an api such as asmx web service, json or xml would be simple.
Can anyone tell me what are the limitations - technically, what is possible with flash and also what Apple consider to be good practice.
Does anyone have any Actionscript code examples?
I'm mighty new to Adobe AIR and Flex, Flash etc I've been looking through the Adobe AIR APIs, and could not find a class that will allow a FlexFlash app to communicate to the calendar, (more specifically, the iPhone calendar via the iPhone packager) am i missing out something here? or has adobe not implemented an API for the Flex apps to communicate to the calendar? Are there other iPhone specific APIs that Adobe has not implemented?

What's an easy and secure way to let my Flash app communicate with my back-end server?
The Flash app, which is a video player, should retrieve the person's username and send back an ID. How would I do this?
Note: Back-end is written in Javascript.
Cen i communicate to FMS from browser not with swf. For example - by javascript from user side or by C# from IIS server side.
I need to built a live chat application where the swf only get the live stream and show it to the user but all the other logic code that communicate to FMS will be not in the swf and not in some *.exe file.
I need this because this live chat appliction will have to work on apple ipad and iphone soon when FMS will be able to stream to those devices and i will have to abandon the swf anyway.
I am working on the web base flash application I am trying to communicate with server through binary socket to the server through IP Address and Port using Action script 3.0 at the server side we are using java.

View 1 RepliesI am developing an app for iPhone/iPad. The client wants to show some realtime data in the app. Something like a chat application, where even if users don't do anything (flash uses no event), they can see what other users are doing in realtime.I went through adobe site to see Flash media Server for mobile device. But I am confused on which version of the server should suit the type of app I am developing.

I'm currently working on a project that need to communicate with java from air without the use of a server like Tomcat. For this i found and use Flerry.Communicating between Java and Air is no problem, as long as I try to send a message from the class that I initially instantiated from Air.What I try to do is subscript to messages from a Message Class in java and use that class to send info and errors to Air from Java.
MessageController.java:
public class MessageController
{[code]....
the infoMessageHandler receives an message containing test message, as it should. How can I dispatch messages from whatever class in Java and catch them on the Air side?
I have made an AIR application where the file communicates with a PHP file in order to display data.I have WAMP installed on my computer, and the application works when I test locally using WAMP but if I upload the php on an online server(I tried on two of my servers) and run the AIR application it seems that it doesn't communicate with the server so no data are displayed.
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.test.com/test.php")
This is how I call for the php on AS3, like shown above.The php file gives no errors when I browse it online so, I suppose there something else going on?
I'm interested in developing for the iPad and iPhone, but I'd prefer not to learn Apple's whole development stack (and good golly, I sure don't want to go back to manual memory management). Oh, sure, I could learn it, but I don't have that level of commitment to the environment at this point. I've got professional experience with Flex already, so I'm intrigued by Adobe's move to make Flash/Flex compile to the iPhone and iPad. My question is: how promising of a development path will Adobe's Slider be? Are we likely to see Slider publicly available in a reasonable timeframe (Adobe: "An early mobile branch of the Flex framework is expected to be available in 2010")? Are we likely to see reasonable performance? Are there development hurdles that haven't become clear yet? Heck, is it all just vaporware? There's pretty limited information available so far, as far as I've seen, but I'm interested in people's predictions, even if they're speculative.
View 6 RepliesI have a swf file stored locally on a linux machine, that is launched on boot up via opera. the swf communicates with the server to login and retrieve xml data, and then loads other swfs on the server.
i have added the crossdomain.xml to the root of my server, and added the appropriate System.security.allowDomain('my domain').
this process works fine on a windows machine, but with the linux setup, the call to login with 'sendAndLoad' does not return a successful result.
I'm interested in building a thick client application for my existing web services that will run on the IPhone. Flash finally seems to be an option, so I thought about using Flex for client side development.
However, since flash apps are not natively supported by the IPhone, but only through a wrapper, I was wondering if these apps can persist any data. Data entered by the user should eventually be transmitted to the web service, but until then I want it to persist even if the Iphone should run out of power.
Is this possible? Or does the Iphone flash wrapper make it impossible to access the hard disk?

View 1 RepliesI'm wondering if the flash packager for iPhone allows you to somehow save data in some kind of database maybe using Core Data or any other form? If it just allows you to export some kind of actionscript based game but doesn't allow for saving data that'd be kinda weak I'd assume so they must have a way (?).
