Don't understand about portable apps in Flash Builder 4.7

Greetings,
I am a long time user of Flash Builder. I write *.mxml and *.as files. They get compiled to *.swf files that run in a Flash Player. This has been the most powerful and portable development system for the Web up until Jobs killed it. In response, Adobe has changed focus. According to the hype, Adobe has made Flash Builder do something more to address iOS, mobile, et al. The problem is that, for the life of me, I can't get past all the marketing BS to understand what Flash Builder now does (to address iOS, HTML5, etc.). Can someone please explain to me what Flash Builder now does besides generate swf files from *.as and *.mxml files in programmer speak without the hype? Now, as I too, am forced to look for a different portable solution, I'd like to at least understand what Adobe is talking about.
Thanks!

Android devices have an Adobe AIR install so the .swf files are interpreted like normal.
For iOS - Adobe actually compiles into native code and runs like any other app would. The downside to this is you can't load .swf files that have timeline code or linkage in the library because those have not been compiled into native code and there is no interpreter to run the commands.

I don;t understand about Rsum

hi all
i don't understand about running functions....
when we have to go for running functions... so far i did not use running functions;
please any one tell me about running functions... i searched about running functions but i am not that much clear on it
Tell me few words about RSUM,..
Thanks

You get more detail in the Help
Just for your information:
This function calculates a running sum based on records encountered so far. The sum for the first row is equal to the numeric expression for the first row. The sum for the second row is calculated by taking the sum of the first two rows of data. The sum for the third row is calculated by taking the sum of the first three rows of data, and so on.
Syntax:
RSUM (n_expression)
Where:
n_expression
Any expression that evaluates to a numerical value.
Example:
The following example shows a query that uses the RSUM function and the query results.
select month, revenue, RSUM(revenue) as RUNNING_SUM from sales_subject_area
MONTH REVENUE RUNNING_SUM
JAN 100.00 100.00
FEB 200.00 300.00
MAR 100.0 400.00
APRIL 100.00 500.00
MAY 300.00 800.00
JUNE 400.00 1200.00
Hope its clear now :)

Hi,
It is not a browser feature, but a feature of the Google sites like Google Search, Google Maps and services like gmail. Depending on the site / service you may see it when signed in or even otherwise. It appears as a horizontal bar at the top on google related sites as of now.

Problems with Dashboard Demo App in Flash Builder 4

I imported the Adobe Flex Dashboard app into Flash Builder 4 using SD 4.1 and selected "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode", but there are still some issues after import.
I'm not talking about having to create the "libs" folder and re-generate the HTML templates. I know why that needs to be done. I'm also not talking about the IStroke and IFill errors you get for the number of arguments to the apply() and begin() methods, as those interfaces changed in Flex 3.5.
But when I get the app launched, the chart datatips are just a black rectangle (no text) and the combobox entry text is invisible.
I'm going to try and fix these, but I thought selecting "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode" meant no changed required?

Here is a simple example. Create a new project in Flash Builder 4 and in the project properties compiler section, select "Use Flex 3 compatibility mode". Then launch the app, hover over a column in the chart and you see black rectangles, not data tips. Why is this and how to fix?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application

Built app with Flash Builder 4.6 and compiled for iOS, now error when loading to appstore

I built a fairly simple app using Flash Builder 4.6 and have successfully deployed it to the Android Market (after testing on my own Android device). I have also taken that same app and compiled it for iOS and tested it on my own iPad.
I have then done the release build with the "Final Release for App Store Distribution" option in the release build wizard. I have all the correct provisioning certificates in place and compiled the application to a .ipa file.
At this point, using a MAC, I have run the Application Loader utility to upload my application to the itunesConnect portal to get it in the appstore. I've already gone through the steps of entering the metadata, price scheme, and screenshots in the itunes connect portal, and just need to upload it for review.
When I upload the .ipa file into the application loader, it gives me the following error:
"iPhone/iPod Touch: application executable contains unsupported architecture(s): arm"
Anyone have any idea what this means and how I can fix it? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

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>

Developing Iphone App using Flash Builder and Flex Air Mobile

I started developing an Iphone app using the trial version of Flash Builder and was pretty impressed with how easy it was, then i hit problems:
Trying to submit my app, I was getting invalid binary, using google i tracked this down to a change in the Apple App Store meaning that all apps needed to have native iphone 5 support, which meant updating to Air SDK 3.7
Updating to AIR SDK 3.7 was a nightmare (mainly as a result of my failure to read the small print)
Once I got SDK 3.7 to work with flash builder / flex mobile i though i was there.
However now i can produce a fast build but everytime i try and produce a standard / production build i get strange errors (air 3.8 does the same).
My Question is - before i actually buy Flash Builder has anybody actually achieved the following:
     Building an Iphone App using:
     Flash Builder 4.7    (running on OSX)
     Flex Mobile 4.6
     Air 3.7
If so how ?
cheers
Toby

Thanks for your reply, its nice to know its not just me.
the error i got when submitting to the App store where due to native support for IPHONE 5 which is now mandatory (from May 1st), looking around the internet the common soloution seemed to be upgrading to Air 3.7.
The strange erorrs on 3.7 revolve around compiling a standard / production build (fast build works fine)
the error is always the same (snippet shown below):
Error occurred while packaging the application:
Undefined symbols for architecture armv7:
"__ZN7avmplus8Debugger9debugLineEi", referenced from:
      __ZN7avmplus9MethodEnv9debugExitEPNS_13CallStackNodeE in AOTBuildOutput-4.o
      __ZN7avmplus11BaseExecMgr22debugEnterExitWrapperNEPNS_9MethodEnvEiPj in AOTBuildOutput-4.o
I have completly failed to work out why, but my gut feeling is its something to do with how the mac is compiling the code in standard build and unable to find a library it needs.
cheers

Air app in Flash Builder w/ lastest OSMF 1.6 s5

I am trying to build and air app with an osmf player in it. I need to use the lastest version. The challenge is the newest version requires the use of flex sdk 4.5 which doesn't compile to Air. I did find some instrustion on how to use inplement and use the new Air sdk 2.6 to allow flex to compile Air with the 4.5 sdk but it doesn't seem to work for me. Has anyone else had to install the Air 2.6 sdk for this reason? If so could you share how you got it to work?
I was attempting it with the following instrunction. http://blogs.adobe.com/cantrell/archives/2011/03/how-to-use-air-2-6-with-flash-builder-4.h tml

I used that : http://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/airquestions/AIR+for+TV?focusedCommentId=79464085&#com ment-79464085
and it worked.
it forces you to downgrade to Flex 4.1 SDK though.

Iphone app and Flash Builder 4.5

Hi
I'm using Flash Builder 4.5 to develop an iPhone app where the users can make certain comments which are to be stored in a database. These comments should then be available to all the users of the app and in turn they can add additional comments. My question is do I need to have a SQL database running on my server to which the comments are stored or is there another way to store user input and make it available to all the users of the app?
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi all,
Exact same problem for me as well. Can someone please help ?
Thank you !

My iphone will not sync to my itunes library. Everytime I try it says that it can't sync because the apps installed cannot be determined. I don't care about the apps I just want my music! Help!

When I try to sync my iphone to my itunes it starts going through the steps and then just stops. A little ! shows up beside my iphone under the devices tab in my itunes, when I click on this it the says that 'Itunes cannot sync apps to the Iphone because the apps cannot be determined'

If all you want right now is your music, you can turn off the option to sync apps, that should help.
With your iPhone plugged in, open iTunes, and go to the page with details about your phone (on the left side of iTunes, it should be under the Devices header). When you are there, go to the top, click on the "Apps" tab (next to "Info"), then uncheck the box that says sync apps.

Adl quits unexpectedly - while debugging AIR app in Flash Builder 4.5

the crash scenario:
     - i'm debugging an AIR app, things are running fine
     - my app is a media rotator and i've set it up to load in images, videos, sounds, and swfs (all good no problems there)
     - the original was built for AIR 2.6 and used the old halo components
      - however, now that i've done the conversions, targeted all spark and mx, and also setup my new AIR 3 SDK (following these instructions http://jeffwinder.blogspot.com/2011/09/installing-adobe-air-3-sdk-in-flash.html)
       when I go from loading a BitmapImage to loading a VideoDisplay element, the adl debugger simply crashes w/ 'adl quit unexpectedly' msg and a massive crash report.
     - it never did this in AIR 2.6 and Flex 4.0 SDK
     - i can load videos in sequence no problem, but the error only occurs when going from bitmap to video.
Any ideas? It's frustrating because after the crash there's not even an error message in the Console.
Also, is this really the best practice Adobe approved way of targeting AIR 3?

For example in the runtimes\player\win folder I would suggest downloading and renaming...
1. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_ax_debug_32bit .exe ===> FlashPlayerDebugger.exe
2. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_plugin_debug_3 2bit.exe ===> InstallPlugin.exe
3. http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_ax_debug_32bit .exe   ===> InstallAX.exe

Adobe has abandoned us. Who will help us about compilation problems with Flash Builder for mobile?

Which is the correct forum???

If you are having issues with the Flash Player, there is a forum dedicated to it that would be a more suitable place for discussions about it...
