Creating your first AIR application for Android with the Flex SDK

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS901d38e593cd1bac25d3d8c712b2d86751e-8000.html

The name of the self-signed cert that is generated in the "Create the APK package file" step is sampleCert.pfx, but the name of the file in the next step is sampleCert.p12. This should be fixed.

Can i create a singol folio application for android with digital publishing professional edition?

hI, (sorry but i speak english a little bit).
I would like to create my application with professional edition because i wont see it on android device too but i need just a singol folio app.
i don't want a multifolio viewer, i need just a singol updatable app that start directly from the icon withouth no other number.
How can i do?
I see also that a lot of function are limited for android, are there some news?
Thanks a lot

You can't.
Even if the subscription app only has one folio in it, you have to
create it that way for Android. This requires a pro or enterprise
account and you'll have to pay for the downloads.

Open pdf from an Air application for Android

Hi at all,
i'm developing an AIR Application for Android devices.
Into the app there is a button which should open a pdf file with the default pdf reader (multitasking), but doesn't work!
I've an Android Emulator (2.2).
This is the code
protected function openClickHandler():void
f.openWithDefaultApplication();
f is a File object which points to pdf into the storage folder.
Any suggest! Help!!
Thanks.

Specific use cases from developers is one way Adobe prioritizes feature development. That's why whenever you request a feature, the response will often include a request for a use case -- even if the use of the feature seems self-evident. Your use case could add more value to a potential feature beyond the self-evident.
Thanks!

Do I need flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?

Is it necessary to use flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?
Can you build apps just using the open source flex sdk. If so are there tutorials and books on how to do so?
Thanks in advance for your help.

No, you don't need Flash Builder to use the Flex SDK. If you download the SDK and unzip it, you'll find a 'bin' directory that has the mxmlc compiler in it. You can compile Actionscript or MXML files using that.
./mxmlc MyFlexApp.mxml
If you are building an AIR application, you will use amxmlc
./amxmlc MyAIRFlexApp.mxml
Then, launch your AIR application using adl
./adl.exe MyAIRFlexApp-app.xml
Hope this helps,
Joan

Getting started with the flex sdk

Hi,
I have been reading and reading this forum looking for an
answer to this question - have found lots of other great info :-)
I have installed the Flex Builder 2 trial and didn't get to
it before the trial ran out - got busy. So, now I'm down to the sdk
to get going with Flex. I have the sdk installed and the sample
apps have been compiled and they work. I have copied and pasted a
sample form and saved the file as .mxml. I have launched the
command line sdk. Now what do I do? I assume I type in something
and that something will include the file path to my mxml file that
I want compiled. What are the commands for the sdk so I can do
that.
I hope I'm on the right track :-)
Thanks!
jo

Change to the Flex bin directory and use mxmlc like this:
mxmlc path/to/my/App.mxml
This should create a SWF file that you can then run. If you
plan on posting the app somewhere, you'll probably want to create
an HTML wrapper. You can use the wrappers in the html-templates
directory.
For more info on using mxmlc, see the online help (type
"mxmlc -help list") or look in the Compilers chapter of the
Building and Deploying book. For more on using the wrappers, look
in the wrappers chapter of the same book.

What's wrong with the flex sdk source subversion repository

These days I just want to update my working copy directories, but it required the authorization.
I checked its homepage whose last modification is dec 03, 2009, and it says "Everyone has read-only access to the open-source projects in the repository".
I also used my adobe account but still failed.
svn client: 1.6.5
os: linux
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/site/Source
Dose anybody know how to get it work?
Thanks

Video Conferencing in Air 3 for Android/IOS

Hi,
We are in the process of creating a Video Conferencing application for Android and IOS devices, the app would be published on Android and IOS market. I have some quires related to using Air 3.0 for the development:
For Android devices Front facing camera is supported only in Air 3.0, but can we assume Air 3.0 would be officially available by end of this year?
Would this feature available for all Android 2.2 and above devices?
Can we use Flash Media Server/any other streaming server for video conferencing?
I have read in some of the post that Apple store do not allow video streaming with RTMP, is this true? Is there any work-around to use streaming video from within Air app for IOS?
Thanks in advance!

I used milkmangames ANE. (50$), because i didnt want to fork the code for each os.
http://www.milkmangames.com/blog/tools/
It was "easy" to set up (quotes: as easy as something complicate can be).
Consumables, or One-time-purchases worked out of the box, but restore, subscriptions and auto subscriptions (like newspapers) had bugs like hell and were unusable.
Also check out here for some free stuff (wich propably works as well as the comercial, "supported" stuff, stupid-me)...

Hi Everyone,
I'm getting basically the same error. Are there any rules or guidelines that we are suppose follow when writing an app for iOS? Is there a way to know exactly where it is crashing? My apps are not MXML, only actionscript. Also I made sure I have no errors not even warnings in my SWF file, but still no go!
Getting the same error.

Creating your first application

Hello,
I've downloaded manual "Creating Your First LiveCycle® ES
Application". I was following all the instructions there,
but when I try to start process in workspace I get an error:
An error occurred creating the form (task 109, form 0). (ALC-WKS-007-040)
Does anyone else have similar problems or this app. works fine?
any experience?

I think I found the solution for this error.
In a Workbench ES we can create forms, and those are 2 kind of forms:
1) Adobe XML Form File (XDP)
2) Adobe XML Form File (PDF)
When I create a process and for initForm variable I chose an XDP form then I can not view the form in Workspace, and I get this error ALC-WKS-007-040. If in initForm variable I chose an PDF form then I
can see the form in workspace!!!!! :-)
But now I get to another problem ;-( Which type for the initForm variable should I use? I think I can not use for the type xfaForm.
I mean I've tried, but then even a simplest process (for example to submit the form to another user) is not working. I mean I can not submit the form.
I'll try to describe the process I've created:
I've deployed 2 components, first one is SetValue (Start Activity), and another is User component. I've created variable initForm, selected REQ., IN, OUT, as a type selected xfaForm, for the Template URL selected the PDF form.
At the user component, I've selected a user from Def.Domain (apink), and at the FormDataMappings tab I've selected the initForm as Input form variable, and Output form data. Also I've tried with different values at these fields but still it is not working!
Do you have any ideas?

Can 10G express be used to create an application for use with a 10G instanc

Hi
Can 10G express be used to create an application for use with a 10G instance? I am new to Oracle 10G. I like the interface for creating applications, maintaining users, etc. Can this tool be pointed at a regular instance of 10G so that applications can be created against a regular 10G database not the express database?
Can PL/SQL proceedures that are created in 10G express also be migrated to a 10G database?
Thanks in advance

How to divide and load parts of Large Adobe AIR app for Android

Hi!
I want to create an app for Android but it will quite large. It will be larger than the 50MB offered by Google Play Store. This means that I need to find a way and break the app and load parts of it when I need them. Imagine it like minigames inside a bigger app.
It is not clear to me how to achieve this since every time on AIR, I can export and APK file for a mini-game let's say. Can I later download APKs and integrate them into my main app? How would this be possible? Another question that I have is: In order for a SWF to play on my app, it needs to be built by AIR for Android?
The best case would be to download content from In-App purchases and integrate in my app.
But these things are not so clear.
Thanks in advance for your help and support.

I don't know how your application is structured, but if you can split sections off into separate SWFs(plain AS3 document) then you could host those section SWFs online and require the user to download them on first run.
You could use the FileReference object to download the SWFs, save them to the File.applicationStorageDirectory, and then display/load them up with the Loader object when needed from the app storage directory. You would possibly need to check to see if the files are present at every boot of the app though as a user could "Clear Data" or "Clear Cache" of the app in the Settings of their device and one or both of those could/would delete the downloaded files.

I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
iselect the customer?

Hi bazza,
We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
Here is the formula in G2
=CONCATENATE(B2&"
",C2&"
",D2&"
",E2)
It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

I want to upgrade my old airport express to the new express. Can I just switch out the old for the new or must I delete the old network first and start from scratch with the new express?

I want to upgrade my old airport express to the new express. Can I just switch out the old for the new or must I delete the old network first and start from scratch with the new express?

It is not necessary to delete your old wireless networks first, but doing so may eliminate confusion. If you wish to do that, open System Preferences > Network, and select Wi-Fi from the left column. Click the Advanced... button, then select your old wireless networks and delete them with the "–" (minus) button. Make sure the "Remember networks this computer has joined" remains checked.
OK then Apply.
This prevents your Mac from searching for your previous network which will no longer exist.
A new Express creates an open wireless network that you must select before you can configure it. It appears in your Wi-Fi menu like this:
Select it. AirPort Utility will load and walk you through its configuration.
Edit: If you are really using OS X 10.5.1 as shown in your profile, the above screenshot is not applicable. Instead, select the network called "Apple network nnnnnn" and then launch AirPort Utility.
