Adobe Air Cookies Removed When App Closed?

Hi,
I have a flex app which I would also now like to offer an Air client for. I don't want to create a new authentication system just for the Air app, I just want to use the cookie/session setup that I already have in place.
The cookies work and after logging in to the AIR app I can make subsequent requests without being asked to authenticate again, the problem is that the cookie seems to be deleted when the client is shut down, meaning that when I restart the air client I have to log in again which is obviously not acceptable for my users.
Is this expected behaviour in AIR and if so, what is the work around?
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
AIR uses the underlying operating system stack for managing cookies. As such, cookies can be shared between different AIR applications and with browsers that use OS stack (e.g. Internet Explorer on Windows).
From the official documentation as well as my experiments, cookies are preserved between application restarts.
I suspect the application uses session cookies for authentication -- these are meant to be cleared when the browser exits and for a good reason (mostly security). AIR clears session cookies when the application closes, unlike some browsers (e.g. Firefox) that don't always clear them.
From what I can tell, you have 2 choices here:
change the authentication system to not use session cookies anymore -- I strongly suggest *NOT* to do this.
write some code in the application to read/write the credentials from another kind of storage when run in AIR, for instance using the Encrypted Local Store. You could do this by inspecting the value of flash.system.Capabilities.playerType (see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/system/Capabiliti es.html#playerType ). You would have to write some AIR specific code, but it wouldn't require you to rewrite the authentication system.
Hope this helps,
Mihai

Adobe Air error message when using PSE 10

When I try using the tips in PSE 10 I get an error message from Adobe Air stating that it is damaged. Have tried uninstalling and re-installing, but that hasn't helped. I have windows 7

Okay Jeff, this is as far as I have gotten so far. I'm using Air version 3.2.0.2070. This is the install log.

Adobe Air 1.5 - Broken Apps, Can't Reinstall

Hi.....I installed Air 1.5 (foolishly) and now I can't get
any of my apps to work. I'm on OS X 10.5.6, and had everything
working prior. I'd like to get this working again, but I can't even
uninstall because the uninstaller is gone, and when I try to
reinstall, it tells me that I have it installed already. I'd really
appreciate any help whatsoever, and I'd like to get this working!
tahnks!

Terminal is the application you can find in
Applications/Utilities folder.
After you download the AIR Runtime, double click on the
AdobeAIR.dmg file to mount the disk image. You can copy the Adobe
AIR Installer file
to your home directory( then you don't need to use the
command cd).
Launch Terminal. Then type in the command and hit
return.

StageWebView crashes Adobe AIR on iOS when assigning it a stage

I'm having a problem with StageWebView on iOS (in Android it works fine). More exactly, It's an iPad app.
I'm loading a dynamic PHP URL with StageWebView's loadURL method, and then I start building Flash interface elements in a left column (the StageWebView browser is in the right column), which works fine, then I wait a couple of seconds for the page to load (with a Timer), and then I finally show the browser to the user with:
this.webView.stage = this.stage;
The moment I run that line, the whole iOS application crashes and the iPad goes back to its desktop (I suppose that should never happen in Adobe AIR no matter what you do).
But the process is still in memory, since if I double click the iPad physical button, I can see my application icon in the running apps bar (though if I click the icon, the app starts from the beginning, instead of resuming).
Using AIR 2.6. Any ideas on how to solve this crash?
Thanks.

Thanks for the link. I've checked it, but the differences listed are not relevant in my app, I think.
Yes, I know there is also the "Event.COMPLETE" event, but I can't use that because it only fires after the page is fully loaded, with all its images, and the page I'm trying to load has 200 images or so and takes almost a minute to load, so I can't have the user wait that long. I just want to wait until the HTML has loaded.
Anyway, I've also tried Event.COMPLETE and after the long wait, the app still crashes when trying to show the StageWebView.
I've even tried a complex solution, by using StageWebViewBridge by Pedro Casaubon to communicate with the JavaScript in the page, using JavaScript's "DOMContentLoaded" event, so it fires as soon as the HTML (but not the images) has loaded. That works, but as soon as I make the StageWebView visible by assigning it the stage, AIR crashes!
So, AIR crashes when trying to assign the stage to the StageWebView object in all these three cases:
- After waiting for AS3 Event.COMPLETE event listener added to loadURL()
- After waiting for JavaScript "DOMContentLoaded"
- After waiting for a fixed period of time set with a Timer event
The only way AIR doesn't crash when assigning the stage to StageWebView is NOT waiting at all. That is, running the loadURL function and immediately running the "this.webView.stage = this.stage;" line to show the StageWebView object in the stage. In that case it works, but it shows some ugly white box in the StageWebView area while loading, which I was trying to avoid, plus JavaScript events don't work until the page is loaded.
All those crashes described above are most likely a bug in Adobe AIR, but I don't know how could somebody else reproduce it since it could be caused by anything (the dynamic PHP page I'm loading, the JS code, something in the AS3 code, though I don't think that code has anything out of the ordinary...)
Also, when I test the app with ADL in the PC, everything works as expected. The crashes only happen in the iPad (it's an iPad 2).

Adobe AIR 14 video player app : windows 8+, Mac OS 10.8 &10.9, android 4+ not mentioned in Access tech specs

We're currently studying to develop a video player app using AIR 14 targeting Windows, Mac OS and Android.
Access DRM is needed but reading online tech specs (URL Adobe Access - Tech specs), there is no mention of windows 8+, Mac OS 10.8 &10.9, android 4+ support.
Can you please give us accurate information on that topic ?
Thank you.

Hello,
Sorry for delayed reply.
Adobe Access DRM are supported on those platforms.
Basically Adobe Access requirements are same as Adobe AIR requirement.
Thanks,
Hiroshi

Adobe air exe to ios app - the process?

Hi,
I am new to app development. I am wanting to know what is possible and my cheapest option in creating an app for IOS from windows.
The app I am creating is a technical publication wanting to be displayed on anipad.
I have an adobe Air version exe published from robohelp/ framemaker. Is there a way to turn my adobe air application into a IOS App?
If not, what are my other options to get a tech pubs document as a IOS App? I would like to use ideally windows adobe products for the creation of it.
Thanks

Ye that Merapi definitely seems interesting but it's the Java chops part that I think I'll fall down lol
I've also asked on a java forum if anyone with experience of using Flex in Conjunction with Java can create the function that I'm after but my topic has been ignored like the ugly girl at the prom.
I've never heard of a socket server. Would they be required to be installed on each machine that the interface is installed on?
I'll definitely look into it. Thanks a lot mate.

Anyone else getting adobe AIR error 2032 when trying to download Adobe max companion?

Hey;
I'm attending max for my first time and am psyched. I've tried downloading the Adobe MAX companian at http://www.max.adobe.com/companion but I keep getting error 2032. I'm wondering if I'm the only one experiencing this problem and if so what can I do to fix it? Thanks for your replies in advance.

Thank you for responding. I found the problem. No it isn't a flash player
issue it is an AIR issue. I didn't know there was an AIR forum. I will post
the answer here instead of duplicating posts. If you are a developer and
have a virtual server on your computer you most likely will run into the AIR
error 2032 when trying to download the MAX companion for the conference
starting tommorow-Wednesday (Monday-Wednesday). You need to either add in a
chunk of code to your server that allows AIR to run or use a different
computer. I used a different computer but I read that someone found the
solution to this error is to add the code to their virtual server. I use
XAMPP, which is a rather popular Virtual Server. Okay well I hope this helps
anyone in the future.

Will Adobe AIR support Google Glass app ?

I'd like to develop Google Glass app using Adobe AIR. Will GDK support be included in the future Adobe AIR release ?

That's great insight Colin.
What are the complications? Can you go into any more detail?
I have published an APK from FlashPro it contains just an image and loaded it on Glass (there were no errors) but it's not running.
Thanks

Adobe Air and SharedObject in app-storage

Hi there,
I'm developing an air application that loads external swf files from the app-storage folder. In my external swf file I have to store a local object, but every time I try to flush (write) my object I get an error that the SharedObject can't be flushed.
I assume that the Sandbox don't allow this?
I searched the whole web but I found nothing that worked for me.
Maybe it is possible to start (or install) the air application from the app-storage folder?
many many thanks

Ok, I've found a solution that worked for me. Loader.loadBytes did the job for me. I know that is not recommended but in my case I take control for the external swfs.

Adobe Air for win8 metro apps

Hi guys,
I might be a little early with the question, but actually its something which will bug us all at some point.
Windows 8 METRO apps.
On tablets the metro interface will not support the flash plugin on websites, so we cannot have flash apps on it unless we can really make metro apps (which I heard will only be available through the MS webstore? )
Is this then the same like when we now create an APK for android or a IPA for Iphone using flash cs5.5 ?
Is there any more information available on this apart from the message from Adobe that the THINK it will run ?
Kind regards,
Bart

I haven't heard any more than you Bart, but I'll +1 this for some answers!
