Mobile App Development with 4.0 ?

Greetings!
I am just about to get into mobile app development. Our Company thou still operates Apes 4.0 and we are waiting for the 4.2 release, before we do the upgrade. On the other hand, the mobile app should be ready earlier due to customer requests.
Now I myself I am still quite new to Apex. I have done some research about what you can do with earlier versions, but havn't really found anything very usefull yet. So I would like so ask here for some advice. I could try building the GUI myself with jquery, installing the latest jquery/mobile versions, fixing the templates, building my own templates, etc., but that would be a humungous work and not the apex-idea.
Are there template plugins for tablet and iPhone GUI elements, that - maybe with a little tweeking - run on apex 4.0, including the touch-screen effects like "swiping" to the next page?
Or would you suggest, to upgrade to 4.1, even thou in 3-4 months we might have to make the upgrade again?
For any link to related articles I will be very gratefull, too.
Best regards,
tobi

1)Which is the latest version that supports mobile app development ?None.
1.3 did support mobile development to some limited extent, but that is a deprecated dead branch and no longer supported.
You can run JavaFX on a Windows 7 or 8 tablet PC, but my guess is that by mobile app development you mean iOS/Android - neither of which are supported.
2)Will it have the cross device support?Perhaps there will be a version of JavaFX that runs on iOS/Android at some time in the future.
There are people working on making this possible =>

3) How about the performance and security?Can't really talk about performance and security of something which doesn't exist.

Do mobile apps developed with Flash Builder 4.5 rely on a redistributable or virtual machine?

I'm very new to Flash Builder 4.5 and am still trying to get my head around it. I'm freelance and my primary code pimp has asked me to justify using FB 4.5 to develop mobile apps rather than something like PhoneGap or native SDKs (Objective C, Java, etc.).
I'm quite impressed with FB 4.5 and it seems quite plain to me that FB 4.5 tries very hard to provide all the tools necessary to create iOS/Android/Blackberry apps all from a single code base but I'm wondering a few things:
1) Does this require the use of a redistributable or virtual machine? I'm wondering both from a performance standpoint but also just to understand better how FB 4.5 provides this magic one-project-for-all-platforms capability. I'm guessing there must be some kind of virtual machine abstraction in use -- or does FB 4.5 generate a fully native application for each platform without the need for a machine abstraction layer?
2) Has anyone encountered a situation where any of the target platforms lack features or behave differently? E.g., "I cannot access some hardware feature like the accelerometer on Android under certain conditions."
3) Can anyone speak to the relative benefits or penalties that FB 4.5 offers relative to PhoneGap or other HTML 5 solutions?

Tools for Mobile App Development with HTML5/CSS

Hi --
I am interested in learning to develop cross platform mobile apps using HTML5 and CSS.
Which Adobe product(s) (and other tools) are best for this?
I'm guessing that Apache Cordova and Adobe PhoneGap Build are places to start but I'm looking for input from others.
I'm also guessing the Adobe Edge products are appropriate "IDEs" for this kind of thing?
What does Cordova bring to the table that isn't available in native HTML5/CSS?
I apologize if this is not the correct forum for this question but upon reviewing the list of available forums this seemed like the best fit.
Thanks
Rich

Rich,
There are few routs you could go to create a Mobile App using Adobe tools.
1. Adobe Muse then export from Muse and visit build.adobe.com as Brad pointed out here:
Can I make a Mobile site with Muse and then go through PhoneGap?
"Export as HTML and the create a zip file with the contents. Go to Phonegap,s website and submit the app directly from there instead of through Dreamweaver."
2. Dreamweaver and Phonegap build access inside Dreamweaver. Read other users experiences on this community form before you rely solely on Dreamweaver to upload your app to build.adobe.com
3. Manually coding and uploading your html, js, css, assets (images, audio etc) files coded either in new adobe Edge Code or Dreamweaver to build.phonegap.com
For easier graphic editing for media devices use Adobe's Fireworks graphics software instead of Adobe Photoshop for graphics. Once you start on your project there are various workflows you can use depending on what you are trying to make.

App developed with AIR 1.5 (or Flex 3 sdk) export to Tablet

I have an enterpise app maked with Adobe AIR 1.5, developed with Flex 3 SDK and halo components (MX not Spark).
I want to export this app to a tablet for my client (this app is very easy to use in a touch screen). But i supose that i have to rewrite all app in Flex Hero SDK (and export with AIR 2.6) and its hard.
Anyone has export an app developed with Air 1.5 or Flex 3 SDK to a tablet of android, blackberry or IOS with AdobeAIR 2.5 or 2.6?
Perhaps it could run in a tablet of Windows 7 but this tablets seems realy poor...
Thanks guys!

Anyone has an old app made in flex 3 or air 1.5 who wants to export an tablet?

HTML5 Web/Mobile App Development

Hi Friends,
Can anyone say what are the combinations available in html5 web/mobile app development like html5+JS ?

Here we will discuss the basics of HTML5 document. Today HTML5 is one of the most exciting buzz in web circles. Actaully HTML5 is the new standard for HTML.
it is still a work in progress. However, the major browsers support many of the new HTML5 elements and APIs but not all.
Rules for HTML5:
New features of HTML5 should be based on HTML, CSS, DOM, and JavaScript
Reduce the need for external plugins (like Flash)
Better error handling
More markup to replace scripting
HTML5 should be device independent
The development process should be visible to the public

ADF Mobile App integration with webservices, connection refused error

I created an ADF application for department search with business components and exposed this as a webservice. I can access the WSDL locally from a browser. Then created an ADF mobile application and deployed it to android emulator. I am able to deploy the application to emulator and I can see the app on Android emulator. When I try to search for any department, I am getting "cannot connect to localhost on port 7101 : connection refused". My server is started already and the port number is also correct. Did any one came across this issue before? Even the WSDL URL is not accessible from the browser of android emulator.
Edited by: adf_forum on Nov 16, 2012 2:16 PM

Hi,
One more thing to keep in mind is that Android emulator is itself a network host, and localhost will likely loop back into itself, i.e. emulator. Please try to set up the WLS to listen on an actual IP address for your development machine, create your WS DC using this real IP address, and then try to deploy/run the app.
If you need to retrofit your app with an new IP address, please keep in mind there are several places you would need to manually fix up, including the connections.xml file.
In general, if the device emulator's browser cannot hit a web service, then the ADF Mobile app will also not be able to hit a web service.
The most reliable way is to treat the emulator like an actual device, then work out your application's connection accordingly.
Thanks,
Joe Huang

Agentry app development with SMP 3.0 SDK

Dear All,
I am new to Agentry app development using SMP 3.0 and i have some basic knowledge on Agentry app development using Eclipse editor using Agentry Plug-in's, and after developing the app, publishing to the Agentry Server and testing the same app using Agentry ATE, but what my queries is please find the below points.
1) In SMP 3.0 SDK, under Agentry app development what is the use of following 'a' and 'b', and give me more clarity about those 'a' and 'b'.
     a) Agentry OpenUI for iOS Setup Overview and
     b) Agentry OpenUI for Android Setup Overview
For above points please find the Agentry1.jpeg for better understand.
2)In the same SMP 3.0 SDK under Agentry app development what is the following points and give me more clarity the same below points.
    a) The Agentry SDK
     b) Agentry Device Client Branding SDK.
     c) Agentry OpenUI API
For above points please find the Agentry2.jpeg for better understand.
3) And how to generate executable like .apk for Android client and .ipa for iOS client and .cab for Windows Mobile etc..
Best Regards,
Ranjith Lingala

Ranjith,
I will do my best to answer your questions.
1) OpenUI is a new option for Agentry applications under SMP 3.0 to allow users to extend and create their own controls for the Agentry clients. Open UI is available for WPF, iOS and Android clients. Using OpenUI is optional but can be used to create additional controls that do not exist in the base Agentry product (for example a slider control). Open UI controls are created using the native language of the device so there are different setup instructions for each platform.
2a) The Agentry SDK is the Active X process that only applies to Windows Mobile clients under SMP3.0. For the other clients it has be replaced with OpenUI.
2b) Device branding is a process to take a generic client and apply your own icon, name, etc to it so that it is specific to your application name. Again here the process for branding differs depending on the platform.
2c) See #1
3) Generating the .ipa or .apk process is part of either OpenUI or the Branding process. You will need to follow the steps specific to which one you are doing. There is no process for generating .cab files. The branding for WinCE involves creation of a custom installer using NSIS scripts
With SMP 3.0 we have even more options for extending the Agentry client to provide better integration (ESRI maps via OpenUI) or additional controls to improve the user experience.
Have fun!

There any way to re-sign the app developed with Adobe DPS?

Hi Everyone , I explain a problem that I have with DPS Single Edition ( it useful that is until May ) to see if anyone knows a solution. I have developed an app for a client , but the client wants to publish the app in Apple Developer with your name . How to export the .ipa or .zip Dps asks certificates Apple account and logically put mine ... (customer is a large company and I do not give me your passwords Apple etc ) you know if there any way they can re-sign the app ? As you do when you develop an app for a client who wants to publish on their own?

Ok they'll ask my client to send me those files.
With notifications no problem because the app does not.
With respect to Itunes connect and publication in the AppStore, will my client who is responsible for publishing the app, complete data etc. from their own.
Your help has been very helpful to me.

How to remove Button from Flex Mobile app actionbar with AS3?

How exactly would i remove a Button from the actionBar "actionContent" in a flex mobile app?
I tried these:
    this.stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.removeChild(menu_btn);
    stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
    this.removeElement(menu_btn);
    stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
I'm not having any luck with those. Im guessing where it is located in the actioncontent isn't considered the stage. Any ideas?
    <s:actionContent>
                        <s:CalloutButton id="menu_btn" icon="@Embed('assets/images/menu/menu_btn.png')" visible="false">
                                  <s:VGroup>
                                  <s:Button id="btn_one" label="Button" />
                                  </s:VGroup>
                        </s:CalloutButton>
              </s:actionContent>
The actionContent is setup like that, I know like with most mxml stuff I could give it an ID to reference it but im not sure how how to give the action content an id number `<s:actionContent id="testID">` does not work. So how can i access this to remove it? making it invisible isn't cutting it i need to actually remove it.

Does this do what you are looking for?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:View xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" title="HomeView">
    <s:actionContent>
        <s:Button id="excess" label="excess" />
        <s:Button label="remove" click="this.navigator.actionBar.actionGroup.removeElement(excess);" />
    </s:actionContent>

Looking for top mobile app developer for quick convo / advice

Hi,
This is an unusual post. I have what I think is an awesome idea. I am fumbling with the notion of making in open source. I want to network to top mobile app developers to discuss it. NDA required. Patent pending.

Are you sure you need an app? Could you do this with an internal web site? You can use mobile styles and it would be indistinguishable from an app.

Mobile app development without SUP and Mac

Hi,
Sorry for the disturbance but I am new in the SAP Mobility solution. I have searched for it but i got more confused. I have three main questions:
1- Can I develop mobile applications without SUP? I have found different keywords related to this topic but I couldn't figure out the difference between them and how the development process will be done, the keywords were oData, REST web services, Gateway
2- I found that there are 3 types of applications using SUP: Native (offline application), Hyprid (online app), oData (online app). can all of them connect to SAP EIS? and if yes, what is the difference in this case between Hyprid and oData app?
3- If I want to develop iOS app, should I have MAC or is there any other possible way to allow me to only use my Windows machine?
Thank you in advance

Hello Engy,
1- Can I develop mobile applications without SUP? I have found different keywords related to this topic but I couldn't figure out the difference between them and how the development process will be done, the keywords were oData, REST web services, Gateway
Answer: yes you can develop apps with SUP. You have to consume services in your appl if you have to use others.
2- I found that there are 3 types of applications using SUP: Native (offline application), Hyprid (online app), oData (online app). can all of them connect to SAP EIS? and if yes, what is the difference in this case between Hyprid and oData app?
Answer: Native application is offline so you can not get live data from EIS as it is not connected. Hybrid apps uses SUP for the interaction with EIS whereas oDATA doesnt use SUP.
3- If I want to develop iOS app, should I have MAC or is there any other possible way to allow me to only use my Windows machine?
Answer: as mentioned by Binson , it can be done in 2 ways. Xcode is required for the development.
Please let me know if these answers were helpful to you.
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna

Old FP-1000 app developed with LabVIEW 5.1.1, not running correctly since updating to MAX 4.5/FP6.0.2

I have an old application built under LabVIEW 5.1.1 which opens an .iak file (the file path is embedded in the app) and reads/writes to modules attached to an FP-1000. Recently I was forced to move the setup onto a new PC and now I'm unable to get the app to communicate with the FP hardware. The new PC has recent drivers installed (MAX 4.5, FP drivers 6.0.2). From MAX, I can open the .iak file and communicate with the FP hardware, so I'm unsure of where the problem lies. Are there version limitations with such old LabVIEW code and new FieldPoint drivers? Sorry, I haven't visited this setup for a long time (nor did I create it originally), so I'm a bit rusty on FieldPoint setups. Any guidance would be much appreciated - I'm trying to avoid having to redevelop the app.
Thanks,
Dave

Thanks, Chris, for replying.
I have every version of LabVIEW from 5.0 through 2009 beta available, though not presently installed. I was trying to avoid having to bring this app back into the development environment.
Since I posted last, I experimented and fixed the issue. I took a current copy of FPLVMgr.dll (version 6.0.0) and dropped it into the support directory for the app, replacing the old (3.0.0) DLL which was there. So, the answer to my question seems to be, an old LV executable can use a new FP DLL, and apparently must do so if the MAX/FP driver installation is updated.
Hope this info is useful to others.
