AIR 2.6 SDK incompatible with Flash Builder 4?

I just installed the new AIR 2.6 SDK but FB4 complains that every swc file in the libs folder is "incompatible with this SDK" when I switch to design view. The application compiles and runs fine, I just can't see it in design view in FB4.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I tried deleting my Flash Builder 4 folder from C:\Users\<username>\ and restarting FB4 in case it was a dodgy profile, but it made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

from http://blogs.adobe.com/cantrell/archives/2011/03/how-to-use-air-2-6-with-flash-builder-4.h tml:
Right-click on your project and choose "Properties".
Select the "Flex Compiler" section.
In the "Additional compiler arguments" field, add -target-player=11.
Click "OK".

IOS/AIR Running and Debugging Issues with Flash Builder

I'm having very frustrating intermittent issues running and debugging Flex applications on an iPad 3rd generation retina with Flash Builder 4.7.
Until this morning, launching on device using both standard and fast packaging worked pretty well. Every now and again, I'd get a dialog saying the packaging had completed successfully, but it hadn't. A quick change of the USB cable to another port on my iMac and it started working again. I'd also randomly get a "Error occurred while installing the application: Invalid <device> specified" error, which quickly went away.
This morning, with the same code base, the same certificate and provisioning profiles, Flash Builder has only managed to successfully package and run my application on my iPad twice and I must have attempted to launch fifty or so times. Standard packaging, fast packaging and with and without the useLegacyAOT.
Does this sound like a Flash Builder issue? Is my iMac USB driver dodgy? Has anybody else experienced this?
Any help greatly welcomed!
Thanks,
Simon

Hi I have had this problem sometimes. With my Mac Book Pro.
Try making a new flex application and see if you have the same result.
When I had this problem I created a new Application and copied every thing from my other application.
This my be a hard solution but I don't no any others.

AIR 2.0 SDK installed but Flash Builder still giving error "NetworkInterface could not be found."

Hi there,
I am trying to retrieve the users MAC address to implement an authorization process on a AIR application. I have read that this is possible with the latest version of the AIR SDK (2.0).
I am developing in Flash Builder and have discovered that it does not ship with the latest AIR SDK. Therefore I have tried two seperate solutions:
1) Following these instructions for overlaying the latest AIR SDK onto the current Flex SDK.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/495/cpsid_49532.html
2) Downloading the latest Flex SDK (4.1) and using that.
In both of these cases Flash Builder then recognises the NetworkInterface and NetworkInfo classes implying that the overlaying of the AIR SDK has been successfully. However when I then run the app the debugger throws an error on the following line:
LINE:
var results:Vector.<NetworkInterface> = NetworkInfo.networkInfo.findInterfaces();
Note: I have imported both classes as well.
ERROR:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class flash.net::NetworkInterface could not be found.
Whilst it throws the above error it also traces the following text to the console:

Many thanks,

Be sure to check the namespace in your application.xml descriptor file. It needs to support "http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.0" in order to access AIR 2 APIs at runtime.
Hope that helps,

Which AIR SDK version does Flash Builder 4 come with

I have both Flex Builder 3 and Flash Builder 4 and would like to experiment with the AIR 2 Beta SDK.
Does Flash Builder 4 (since it's new) already come with AIR 2, or what do I do to have access to the AIR 2 SDK.
I'm working with the Eclipse plugin edition if that makes any difference, but answers from non-eclipse users are equally appreciated.

The SDKs you get from Adobe (unless specified) come with Air 1.5
If you want the Air 2 beta SDK (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air2.html) You have to get the Flex SDK of choice (http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Flex+SDK) and the Air 2 SDK. You then overlay it on the Flex SDK (Using the instructions from the previous post)
Keep in mind that we have no idea when Adobe will decide to release Air 2, so if you are developing for it, you might have to wait on your release until they are ready. On top of that, you cannot have a user auto-update from air2beta to air2release. Basically, you can only "play" with it for now

Project built with Flash Builder 4.6_Flex SDK, didn't work on Flash Builder 4.7_AIR SDK

I have developed a project on flash builder 4.6 as a new action script project and I chose web & Flex SDK 4.6 (default), and now with Flash Builder 4.7, the project won't run, and the package available is AIR SDK only.. no flex!!

Open your .actionScriptProperties file and set useFlashSDK to false. This will allow you to use your older SDKs. They are managed in the same way as Flash Builder 4.6 when this option is changed.

Adobe AIR 2 Beta with Flash Builder 4 Beta 2

I'm trying to figure out how to use AIR 2 with Flash Builder 4. I was initially under the impression that FB4 has AIR2... but the when I create a File object and try to call the function openWithDefaultApplication(). An error occurs saying the function doesn't exist. This is the AIR application I created in FB4. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to install AIR 2 somehow -- and if so, how do I do so?

     </fx:Script>
     <s:Button x="439" y="155" label="Button" mouseDown="launch()"/>

Thanks in advance.

Download the AIR 2 SDK, make a new copy of the Flex4 SDK (or whichever Flex SDK you want to use) and copy the AIR SDK over it. (If you are on the Mac, you have to be careful that the directories themselves aren't overwritten -- just the files inside them.) You then add the combined SDK to the list in the Flash Builder project properties dialogs.

Creating Portfolios with Flash Builder 4.6 and the 4.1a SDK

I've been following the instructions and tutorials on the creation of Navigators for Acrobat with Flash Builder but it seems to be missing a few steps along the way.
http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/ax-portfoliosdk_intro/ax-portfoliosdk1
Symptoms:
- When I run the navigator (run as navigator) I get an error "Error: Error #2067: The ExternalInterface is not available in this container. ExternalInterface requires Internet Explorer ActiveX, Firefox, Mozilla 1.7.5 and greater, or other browsers that support NPRuntime."
- Once dismissed the "for the best experience" message is displayed with a prompt to download the latest Reader.
Correct SDK's are being used.

Solved it. Just added the following in the <InfoAdditions> tag for iPhone in my app descriptor XML file:
<key>UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities</key>
<array>
<string>wifi</string>
<string>armv6</string>
<string>armv7</string>

Overlaying adobe air sdk 13 in flash builder 4.7

After overlaying adobe air sdk 13 in flash builder 4.7 I have followed the step mentioned on adobe site.
i am getting lots of error in flash builder 4.7 after overlaying.
Can anyone please suggest me how to get it done for flex mobile project.

You are probably missing the updated flash debug player that describes all the new methods to the application.
There is a good walkthrough of how to upgrade flash builder to a new library version, this is described in the first video of hsharma's starling tutorials.
Its very annoying though, i wish adobe would really build in a feature like this to update libraries.

Workaround for using the latest nightly SDK 4.0 builds with Flash Builder Beta 2

The latest builds of SDK 4.0 have been updated in preparation for including playerglobal.swc for Flash Player 10.1. Flash Builder Beta 2 can not find playerglobal.swc due to the addition of the {targetPlayerMinorVersion} variable found in the flex-config.xml file.
When using recent nightly SDKs with Flash Builder Beta 2, please modify them as follows:
1) Rename the folder <nightly sdk location>/frameworks/libs/player/10.0 to "10"
2) Edit the file <nightly sdk location>/frameworks/flex-config.xml and remove ".{targetPlayerMinorVersion}" and save
When you restart Flash Builder, we will now find a correct location for playerglobal.swc, allowing for code hints and many other features to work properly.

Bump.
As people continue to have problems with the nightly SDK 4 builds and Flash Builder Beta 2, please remember to use the workaround described at the top of this thread.

AIR 3.4 SDK Beta with iOS6 Support is missing BETA 2 update

We are trying to get our application that uses native extensions working with iO6 and AIR 3.4. I can see from the website that there was an update on August 7th, and the top links show that update in the link date:
Ie: http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/labs/flashplatformruntimes/air3-4/air3-4_p2_sdk_mac_080712.tbz2
However the links under “AIR 3.4 SDK Beta with iOS6 Support”, have not been updated. (And that is oviously the build we are most interested in)
http://labsdownload.adobe.com/pub/labs/flashplatformruntimes/air3-4/air3-4_p1_sdk_ios6_mac _071612.tbz2

So I found the problem. I had installed beta 1 in a folder called AIR 3.4 ... I installed beta 2 in a folder called AIR 3.4 Beta2
I did however point Flash CS6 to use the AIR 3.4 Beta2 SDK ... it must not like something about this. Once I deleted both SDK's and then put Beta 2 in a folder simply titled AIR 3.4 everything works again.

Starting iOS development with Flash Builder 4.6

Hi guys,
I want to start iOS development with Flash Builder 4.6. I have iPad 2 with iOS 6 installed (latest version available).
I was following this tutorial step by step: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/mobileapps/WS064a3073e805330f6c6abf312e7545f65e-8000.html #WSe4e4b720da9dedb5-27e02e9a12ee20e4a60-7fff
As a part of it I also did this:
Convert a developer certificate into a P12 file - http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/iphone/WS144092a96ffef7cc-371badff126abc17b1f-7fff.html
Installed AIR SDK version 3.4.0.2540 as for 4.5 (I have 4.6) - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/error-run-debug-deploy-ios.html
I try Now I am getting the follwoing errors:
Error occurred while packaging the application:
SDK is missing file /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/lib/aot/lib/AIRInterpreter
Error occurred while packaging the application:
SDK is missing file /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/sdks/4.6.0/lib/aot/bin/ld64/i686-apple-darwin9-ld64
Required files are missing indeed. But where can I find them if AIR SDK doesn't have them? What should I do now?

All the files in lib/aot/ are part of the AIR sdk.
You'll have to overlay the AIR sdk on top of the Flex SDK (which comes with FlashBuilder).
On windows, simply copy-paste the AIR folder on the Flex SDK folder. (merge the two folders)
On mac, use a command line and ditto the AIR sdk folder on Flex SDK folder.

AIR for Apple iOS Support in Flash Builder is not installed.

I've written an application in Flash Builder and I'm now attempting to get it running on an iPad.
I am running on a Mac (OSX 10.6.7)
I have FB 4.5 installed and downloaded the separate 4.5.1 update file successfully updated FB to 4.5.1.
I have downloaded and installed AIR 2.7.
I have downloaded and installed the AIR sdk.
I have an iOS developer account and have created my developer certificatn p12 file, created an Apple Id for my application and a provisioning profile.
I created a new "ActionScript Mobile Project" for my application and enabled the Apple iOS platform.
I have entered my certificate and provisioning information into FB.
I created a "Debug Configuration" for my project.
When I run my debug configuration, I am prompted for my Certificate Password (which I enter).
I then receive a pop-up message with the following error:
"AIR for Apple iOS Support in Flash Builder is not installed. To enable packaging support for Apple iOS follow these instructions."
The link for the instructions links to the following knowledge base article:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/899/cpsid_89938.html
I have Flash Builder as a part of the CS5.5 Web Premium (on DVD), which does not appear to have a "AIR for Apple iOS Support" option during the FB installation.
So I followed the manual installation steps provided (although copying the described folders to my sdks/4.5.1 folder (rather than the sdks/4.5 folder).
However, doing the above did not resolve the issue. I still get the same error message as before.
Has anyone else encountered this issue, or have any suggestions on how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance.

Trace() not working with embedded SWFs created with Flash Builder

I have just migrated to Flash Builder 4.5 with the 4.5.1 SDK.
I have an application that loads a lot of child SWFs into it - some of which are created with Flash, some are created with Flash Builder.
I am noticing now that my trace() statements that are called from within SWFs produced with Flash Builder that are loading as child SWFs into my main SWF are NOT appearing. However, trace() statements called from within SWFs produced with Flash that are loading as child SWFs into my main SWF ARE appearing.
This is an extremely major problem and has short-circuited my debugging/development.
Any recommendations, workarounds, or suggestions?

If the child SWFs were created by performing an "Export Release Build", then trace() statements would be omitted.
You can control this by setting the -omit-trace-statements compiler argument (in Project properties -> Flex Compiler -> Additional Compiler Arguments).

Just downloaded the Apache Flex 4.8.0 with their installer application and tried to use it with flash builder 4.7 beta 1.

cyrill

Hi Crill,
I don't see any error on creating new projects and running the same.
Where did you get the installer from?
What is the framework linkage type? You can check this in project properties -> flex build path. It should be Merged into code for Apache SDK.
thanks,

Trouble with Flash Builder 4.6?

I’ve tried every version from 4.5 to 4.7 premium edition of Flash Builder in order to get past this bug that I can’t seem to move past in order to continue with the design process. The problem I’m having is this:
I’ve setup a new project and everything works great. The problem occurs when I try to access the Data/Services I’ve created for my project. When I right click on the created service in order to access “Configure Return Type” nothing happens, I tried this at least 10 different times using all the various versions. I have since deactivated 4.5 and installed and activated 4.6 and tried it with that version with no success. All of the other contextual features of that menu respond to the right click, just not the Configure Return Type…
I’m running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 with Flash Builder 4.6 at the present time.
I need to know how to get this feature to work so that I can continue on with the project I'm wanting to work on...

Thanks for your post. You may want to post this in the developers forum. You will proably get a faster answer.
