Iphone :: Database Driven Ios App First Steps
Oct 27, 2011
I'm about to start work on my first app which will be an internal release to gather customer information at a trade show.I'm hopefully looking into using air for ios or maybe one of the various html/js frameworks to develop this app as an alternative to learning C.ideally I would do it with some server based php > sql to store and share gathered information between a fleet of iPads, unfortunately due to the population of this trade show there will be no guarantee that i can maintain a wireless connection so need to prepare for these apps all being local access only.in which case, how would you recommend going about the saving/reading of the stored data, and also how to sync it up with a sql server and then back to the iPads each night.

Is it possible to create a database driven website using these alone? Or do i need to learn any other technology? If i do then what should i learn? I know j2se for the desktop and oracle SQL/MySQL i finally got the feeling that i need to learn PHP anyway along with css and javascript. So it is fine. Also another query. Which CMS should i consider? Wordpress or Joomla?

I'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 (?).

I'm building a kind of CMS system for a site, with PHP and Flash. To start with in a specific section, I'm printing out data in a php page, using the & so they can be read and used in Flash, then I'm writing out the text as html within a dynamic flash field in flash.
Below is how i print out the basic variables for flash in php.

I have been using AS3 for approximately 1 year now, and although I havent really done any major projects with it, I am fairly confident using it. However, There is 1 part that I am very curious about. At the moment, I am using the design section of flash cs5 to create my assets. I am trying to make database driven applications, and the problem I have run into with using the design section is that you must manually program each symbol.
For example, If I wanted to make a dropdown menu, and a php file was passing the variables such as "amountOfSections = 5", Then 5 sections would be displayed. This is fine to do using alpha to control what is visible etc, but if there where 5000 dropdown menu items, I would have to physically place 5000 dropdown items onto the stage. I know that it is possible to use as3 to create objects AS THEY ARE NEEDED, but I have no idea how to do it.

I bought a flash site template that loads xml driven swfs inside the main swf as different menu items are clicked. The modules that come with the template work fine, but I don't know how to add a third party xml driven swf, so that it shows up properly. While the third party swf works fine as a standalone, the embedded version loads just an empty movie.

I 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'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.

I have built a multi-touch application which is based on a Java EE backend and combined with BlazeDS to a Adobe Flex frontend. The application runs on a DIY-Multi-Touch which I built. Now I want to use another solution. The Adobe Flex frontend (with a multitouch library) and the BlazeDS adapter should be replaced by a solution which covers iPhone/iPad, Android and commercial Multi-Touch displays.
The problem is the iPad/iPhone, there is no Flash Player runtime (not the jail-breaked ones), but the application should be runnable also on those devices. So Adobe Flex and a Java frontend (no JVM on the iPhone/iPad) is not possible anymore. At first, starting the developing of the application it was not neccessary, to run it on Apples mobile devices, but this changed So, what can I do, using HTML5? So I can use it for Android and iPhone/iPad. But I also want to make it possible to use it on a commercial multi-touch-display and normal display with a mouse (I only have gestures for one finger, the 2-finger gestures are not neccessary). Are there any frameworks that allow this? Because I do not want to create several frontends (App for iPhone/iPad on Objective-C and a Adobe Flex for all other devices), it would be great if I can build a frontend for all devices.

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 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?

i'm following Christian Cantrell guide for packaging AS3 application for iPhone, but i can't find a way to use the packager for creating an app for testing on device. I've tried with -target ipa-test and -target ipa-app-store but when i try to upload my app on the iPad, iTunes throws an error sayng that i'm not allowed.I've done a simple test using the Packager bundled width CS5 (with the same certificates) and everything gone right.
Is is possible to use CS5 Packager for Flex project ? (i know that flex isn't optimized for mobile)

I'm trying to create iphone apps using Flash CS5.5 and I have a doubt... I just created a simple app which plays a long sound (more than 5 min).
When the phone auto-locks, my sounds stop. If I unlock the phone, my audio resumes...
How could I do to avoid the lock, or dont interrupt the sound when the device auto-lock?

I have built an app in Adobe Flex (4.5) and it works well on Android, but i need to test it on an iDevice. I have an iPhone 3GS available, and i have made a provisioning profile with it and certified it through the proper Apple channels, but trying to install the app to the phone through iTunes results in an error (the same one you get when trying to install non-market apps), and i can't find a way to import it into xCode.
NOTE: i developed the app on a PC in Flex, but have a MacBook Pro available for testing.

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'm taking a Flash CS4 class at the local community college. Our teacher is making a LOT of assumptions about what we know. Our first assignment is to set up a web site (I've already taken web design I & II, but this is my first exposure to Flash). What I'm looking for is some guidance about the orderly steps to take when setting up a flash web site.I'm thinking I need to go into Photoshop or Fireworks first and design the pages so I can import them.But what about when I get to Flash? Page set-up, size, create layers for each of my pages, import things, where to start adding effects first... I can't decide the most efficient ORDER in which to do things.

I did an ActionScript 3 version of my old algorithm made in c language to solve the �Tower of Hanoi� puzzle.
The problem is that I knew how to show the intermediary steps in c language but I don�t know how to do that in ActionScript 3.
The below .as file code uses just three disks of successive bigger diameters ( and different colors ) created as MovieClips in Flash which must move from the first peg to the third one, through appropriate moves, in such way that they end up piled up in the same crescent order as they were in the first peg.
The way the code is written just shows the beginning disks position and the end result but not the intermediary steps.
I want this code being capable to show the successive disks positions on the pegs in each step of the process, each time I right-click the mouse.[code]...

I am making a comic in Flash CS4 using AS2 and I'm trying to figure out how to add a quick crossfade from one keyframe to the next. When the user presses the "next" button, I want the current image to fade down and the next image to fade up. The images are arranged so the heads and text are positioned to the left and right, so as one head fades up the other would fade down, see picture below. It's a conversation.
I understand how to do it if the scene plays automatically, but I want it to stop on each keyframe so the user can take their own time to read the text. I'm just starting out and used another tutorial to come up with the AS that is controlling it now. That AS was written when all the keyframes were in a row next to each other. Now I've adding some blank frames between them to create space for the Tweens, but I don't know how to modify the AS so it steps from keyframe to keyframe. It's still stepping though one frame at a time.

Is there any equivalent to a Flash projector for iPhone? Flash projectors basically seem to package script and Flash libraries into one executable file that can be run on a PC. I'm wondering if anyone has made a similar thing for iPhone where I can take my existing code and package it with the necessary iPhone stuff to make a PC executable. Of course hardware-specific things would not be available like accelerometer/phone/gps, etc. but I don't need any of those. If not, is there anyone currently attempting this?

I am a Flex developer. I wish to make flex applications for iphone. But, when I google up for the same, most of the link shows up that Adobe Flex and flash aren't supported on iphone.
Is this right ? Why it isn't supported ? If it is supported, which are the good books for developing iphone applications via flex.
