Adobe AIR HTML / Ajax Developement and Android
Just confirming... I haven't been developing in Flash since the days of Actionscript 2.0. I've been mostly doing HTML / Ajax dev the past couple of years. I started playing around with developing apps using HTML and Ajax. I read in another thread that for Android dev, you have to use flash. Is this true? If so, is there any plans to open this up more? I realize there might be some things that might not translate over, such as the touch interface, but I would really love to create some applications without having to get back into flash or learning Flash Builder.
Joe is correct on the support for HTML & AJAX. If you want to leverage those skills, you are going to have to stick with just using the on device web browser (which should be fairly robust) or look at alternate solutions like PhoneGap or Titanium's Appcelerator.

Adobe Air HTML & JS Developing - Slow on massive Image-Tags
Hello,
I want to share a problem i noticed while developing an application with adobe air, based on the HTML & JS Stack, which uses multiple image-tags at the same time. I already mailed a bug but unfortunately did not get a bug number responded to refer to hit here. This post is started because i wanted to share a simple example which exhibits the problem.
The Bug Report i mailed:
******BUG******
Concise problem statement: Performance Issues with massive Image-Tags (scaled)
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create a simple Air-Application. No need for any Air-specific library we just want the Air-Webkit to render a HTML-Page
2. Load ~130 Pictures with a dimension of approximately 1024 x 768 pixels. Render each of them as a scaled Image-Tag with the dimension 100x60 pixels.
3. Load the Page in the Air/Safari/Firefox/IE Environment (Versions: Air 2.5, Safari 5.0.2 (Win XP), FF 3.6.10, IE7)
4. Try scrolling down/left/right/up and resizing the respective stage
Results: The Air Environment performs worst among those 4. It reacts unacceptably slow while trying to resize and to scroll.
Expected results: similar performance to Webkit-Engine in Safari.
I know of one other discussion which seems to be related to a similar thing (http://forums.adobe.com/message/44913).
The Page i used to compare the Adobe-Air rendering & scroll behaviour against the behaviour of Safari, FF and IE is posted beneath (pretty long due to the excerpt of 131 pictures taken of flicker web service).
with best regards
Robert

What is Adobe AIR HTML based development
Hi All,
I am a newbie in flex development. What is the difference between MXML based development and HTML based Development ?
Appreciate your answers.
Thanks,
Amithttp://www.adobe.com/products/air/faq.html
Adobe AIR is a cross-operating-system runtime that lets developers combine HTML, JavaScript, Adobe Flash® and Flex technologies, and ActionScript® to deploy rich Internet applications (RIAs) on a broad range of devices including desktop computers, netbooks, tablets, smartphones, and TVs. AIR allows developers to use familiar tools such as Adobe Dreamweaver®, Flash Builder®, Flash Catalyst®, Flash Professional, or any text editor to build their applications and easily deliver a single application installer that works across operating systems.
This program is required in order to run our media downloader that is used to archive files from Photoshop.com.

Adobe AIR HTML/JS application and Windows Native Installer
Hi,
I am building an Adobe AIR application with HTML and Javascript and I would like to know how to make an Windows Native Installer.
I am trying to build it with Flash Pro but it keeps returning the error 'Invalid SWF file'. At the application.xml file the <content> points to my index.html file. I don't use any SWF file. When I change this to point to the SWF it does build tha installer but the application loads the SWF.
Is there any way to build a Windows Native Installer and the initial content be an HTML file?
p.s. I tried to extract the files from the installer file and edit the application.xml there to point to the index.html. But I can't repackage the files to a valid air native installer.
Thank you.Hi,

Adobe Air - HTML, Javascript and Threading
Hello,
I am developing an application using Adobe Air - HTML and
Javascript. What I am trying to do is to implement threading in
Javascript. I am using implementing threading in Javascript as per
this Neil blog.
Click
Here. It clearly says that this threading works only in Firefox
2.0 and I am trying to use this in with my Adobe Air, but when I
try to refer a function , it gives me error saying "unable to find
it".
I was wondering if this is the best way to go for threading
in Adobe Air HTML application or there is some other way also.
Thanks,
JaikishanHi jjalan,
The yield and generator functionality is only available in
Firefox's javascript execution engine. When you are executing
javascript in AIR, it is done by the webkit and squirrelfish. Take
a look at
http://webkit.org/blog/189/announcing-squirrelfish/
If you can find a javascript library that works on safari /
webkit, chances are high that it may work in AIR.
Also, you can always do pseudo-threading via the age old

Adobe AIR 3 Performance Issues and Code Signing Certificate Problem
I recently updated to Adobe AIR 3.0 SDK (and runtime) doing HTML/Javascript development using Dreamweaver CS5.5 in a Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit).
The AIR app I'm developing runs well from within Dreamweaver. But when I create/package the AIR app and install it on my machine:
1. The app literally CRAWLS running it in my Windows 7 12G RAM machine (especially when I use the mouse to mouse over a 19-by-21 set of hyperlinks on a grid) --- IT IS THAT SLOOOOWWWW...
2. The app runs fine in my Mac OS X 10.6.8 with 4G RAM, also using the Adobe AIR 3 runtime.
About the Code Signing Certificate problem:
When I try to package the AIR app with ADT using AIR's temporary certificate feature, I get the error message "Could not generate timestamp: handshake alert: unrecognized_name".
I found some discussions on this problem in an Adobe AIR Google Groups forum, but no one has yet offered any resolution to the issue. Someone said Adobe is using the Geotrust timestamping service --- located at https://timestamp.geotrust.com/tsa --- but going to this page produces a "404 --- Page not found" error.
The Google Groups Adobe AIR page is here:
http://groups.google.com/group/air-tight/browse_thread/thread/17cd38d71a385587
Any ideas about these issues?

Adobe air html/js - application act like a browser.
I just started in Adobe air html/js . In the current application I want to do something like this .
I want to open the urls/web pages in the application and application should act like a web-browser to them .
But with that I want to modify the opened pages a little, like add some css/js to them.
Something like when you open Web pages in Firefox and a plugin (example grease monkey scripts) modifies the displayed content .
Is it possible ?
I tried opening in iframe it works , but I cannot add my own JavaScript to the page (is there any way in air to remove cross domain strictness?).
Note: Please don't suggest that I fetch the html content of the page and add it to the app body. My app should really act as browser. (Adobe air is webkit based so I think it can be achieved)Hi,
Thank you for reporting this. The internal bug number for the issue is #2740755. The issue is currently under review and will be investigated by one of AIR team members.

How can I get serial numbers or the free versions of Adobe, Air, Flash Player 14, and Reader XI Pro
How can I get serial numbers or the free versions of Adobe, Air, Flash Player 14, and Reader XI Pro that I had installed on my computer before Microsoft crashed my computer and I had to do a fresh install? I finished reinstalling Win 8.1Pro on my computer thanks to Microsoft Lvl 1 Techies corrupting my Command Structure so nothing would work. I had recently taken a picture of my installed programs (control panel, uninstall programs list) so that I would be able to reinstall everything I needed. I can't seem to find an email for the Reader which I remember paying for, the others I believe were free installs. Can anyone help me out.
Safari Version 5.0.5 < from your first post
5.0.5 is an outdated version of Safari.
There is an update available for Safari for version 5.1.1
That may help.

Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.
Try full screen ...
If you have problems using Software Update from the menu you can use the standalone installer here > Safari 5.1.1 -
Cache-Control and Accept-Encoding support in Adobe AIR HTML Component
I am evaluating Adobe AIR's HTML component and trying to figure out what is supported.
I built the AIR app and had it point to www.google.com
I notice that the requests to fetch JS,CSS from Adobe AIR do not include Accept-Encoding: gzip header.
Does Adobe AIR's HTML Component support Accept-Encoding : gzip header ?
I also noticed that even though the content served with far futures expiry, i.e. has Cache-Control: maxage={value} subsequent requests are being made and content is not served from the browser's cache.
I observed this accross the app restarts.
Can someone please clarify support of the two above Http headers ?
Thank you.

How should an application developer handle Adobe AIR upgrades on Windows and Mac?
Hi,
My questions concern Windows 7 (and later) and Mac OS X:
Is Adobe AIR upgraded automatically? In other words, by default (if the user does not uncheck something during installation), is there a service/polling mechanism that checks for a new version of Adobe AIR and recommends an update to the user?
What happens if a user has an older version of Adobe AIR installed, and my application requires a more recent Adobe AIR version? Do I, as an application developer, have to do something or is it handled by Adobe AIR automatically?
Have Adobe AIR introduced many backward compatibility issues in the past? Is it possible for a user to have multiple versions of Adobe AIR installed at the same time? Can I, as an application developer, specify that this exact version of Adobe AIR is needed by my application?
If there sometimes are backwards compatibility issues with Adobe AIR. Is there a way for me as an application developer to try out a new version before it is released to the normal users? In other words, is there a way for me to make sure that my application works with the next version of Adobe AIR before it is released by the normal channels to the general user base?
Is there something else which should be taken into consideration when it comes to Adobe AIR upgrades and versioning issues?Well we would suffer especially much from two of the drawbacks listed at Packaging a captive runtime bundle for desktop computers:
The AIR in-browser API for installing and launching an AIR application from a web page is not supported
AIR update API and framework are not supported
We are using the Air application as a solution for printing, which is invoked using the AIR in-browser API when the user clicks the "Print" button. I would guess the route to make it work with a captive runtime (which was something new to me), which I see as a normal stand alone application, would be to register a specific MIME type with the OS and each Web browser which is handled by our print application. And let a file of our new MIME type contain the information passed in the in-browser invocation at the moment. That would trigger the application when a user clicks Print.
We also use the AIR update API to update our application. Being without it means that we would need to create our own update mechanism.
These two paths to handle the given drawbacks above would mean a lot of work for us. Especially as we want to support both Windows and Mac. It might be worth it if the answers to my questions in the original post indicates that we can expect another type of problems instead.
I am still interested in answers to my original questions. But we will certainly take the captive runtime approach into consideration. As I didn't know about it, I really appreciate your answer! -
Adobe AIR for mobile expectations and misconceptions?
Hello, I am somewhat confused by the content published by Adobe which claims that AIR for Android or iOS publishing creates a fully native app.
For example, in this Adobe Developer Connection article (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/logged_in/abansod_iphone.html) written in May 2011, the following claims are made:
"Since we are able to compile ActionScript to ARM ahead of time, the application gets all the performance benefits that the JIT would offer and the license compliance of not requiring a runtime in the final application."
"When you build your application for iOS, there is no interpreted code and no runtime in your final binary. Your application is truly a native iOS app."
After reading a large amount of information like this from Adobe and other sources, I went ahead and bought an Android phone. After actually getting the .APK file published from Flash Pro CS 5.5 onto the phone and installed, it of course gave me the message that I needed to install Adobe AIR to run the program.
How can that be "truly a native app?" The same happens in iOS, obviously. Is Flash running in a web browser a "truly native app" in that case? The extra step of making users download the Adobe AIR package makes it all seem so half baked compared to actual native apps. I'm assuming there is no way to package AIR with your app? Not that it's a great alternative, but I can't think of what else would make this situation better.It appears you may be confusing iOS with Android a little bit. The article you referenced was speaking solely about iOS, not Android. So, yes, they were correct.
Now, there is a new option in AIR 3 that allows you to package your applications WITH the AIR Runtime for Android. This is called "Captive Runtime" and allows you to create applications that do not need to reach out to grab AIR from any marketplace because it is already packaged.
Here is more information on Captive Runtime:
http://www.tricedesigns.com/2011/08/10/air-3-0-captive-runtime/
Here is how you can set up Flash Pro with AIR3:
http://www.swfgeek.net/2011/09/26/targeting-flash-player-11-rc1-air-3-rc1-in-flash-profess ional-cs5-5/
Note that if you are using Flash Pro to create an app with AIR 3 you will need actually package the app with the Command Line. The tooling is not yet available in Flash Authoring Environment.
Here is how you can do that:
http://www.youtube.com/user/iBrent#p/u/6/MRcoJ6ClLqo
it is similar to this, but with slightly different switches. There is more info in the command line help. -
Adobe AIR (JavaScript/AJAX) is dead?
Hi all,
I used to code in AIR for JavaScript / Ajax in v1 and v1.5 of AIR. I am trying to refresh my coding skills into this platform but there seems to be very poor knowledge base and material at the web, I am wondering whether this platform is somehow deprecated and whether only Adobe AIR (Flex) is supported.
Can you please clarify?
thank you,
GeorgeBump! I'd like to know, too. We have a large html/javascript app and are wanting to use it on Android or iOS, but it kinda seems like everything is Flex based now.... ???

Adobe Air won't install on android device.
Just got a android phone to develop air apps on and guess what, the Adobe Air won't load.
The phone (Virgin Mobile Optimus V = Mid-Tex Cellular LGE VM670) was just released.
Does Adobe Air have minimum specs that have to be followed?
Does the Adobe Air app have to updated with my phone to allow access on the android market .
Some Air apps will show my phone, on others air apps do not (device ghosted) Including Adobe Air.
ThanksI found this minimun specs:
Android devices
Google Android™ 2.2 operating system
ARMv7-A processor with vector FPU
OpenGL ES 2
H.264 and AAC hardware decoders
256MB of RAM
The Optimus V has OS 2.2 and enough ram.
Have to check the rest of the specs.
The screen res is 320x480 and the processor is slow but has a gpu.
I was surprised to see only 5 manufacturers certifided for Adobe Air Runtimes!
There might be 50 manufacturers world wide making android devices.
You would think the software would cater to the lowest common denomminator = minimun specs.
I don't mind needing top of the line specs, that's OK makes sense, But not being able to sell an app
because the manufacturer has not been certifided makes no sense.
All manufacturers should have a top of the line device that meets the minimun spec.
It limits your market.
Sorry for the rant,
want to buy a phone. Mint!
