Export Mobile App to Air Exe/Dmg

I have an application for mobile devices that I want to export as an exe or dmg.
I found online to use ADT. Problem is is that I get errors (different ones depending on if air SDK i use)
If i use air 3.0:
AIR file at [app path]/app.air could not be converted.
The error was ""
If I use air 3.1 or air 3.2 sdk
SDK is missing file [my path to air]\lib\nai\bin\naip.exe
I'm running
java -jar [path to air]\lib\adt.jar" -package -target native app.dmg app.air
I've also tried
java -jar [path to air]\lib\adt.jar" -package -target native app.exe app.air
Any ideas? Apparently there is an integrated Flash Builder 4.6 tool, but for some reason the option under export release doesn't exist for mobile projects - strange...

What I ended up doing was creating a new Air for Desktop projects that used the source from the mobile project.

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by Apple / Android?

Include Air ( desktop app ) inside Mobile app permited by apple / android?
This is my question....:
I need a "viewer" app run in a desktop machine... via p2p... ( done and working )
I will like to include it in my iOS / Android Release, an then by example move it to the documents folder.
Run iTunes and then copy the file from the shared document folder.
Is this permited by apple / android / adobe ?
Thanks....

just tracing some kind of tests I'm doing.
A couple of hours ago I left working 2 instances of my Application, leaving alone this computer: one instance is the Mac desktop version and the other one is the Web version. In this case both versions were running on the same computer (an iMac with OS X Mavericks):
1) the AIR/Mac version have been recompiled yesterday with the new AIR4(.0.0.1619 - AIR 3.8 is used to fall in a equivalent way - no changes)
2) the Web version have been compiled targeting FP 11.8 and it is running on Chrome browser with PepperFlash NOT disabled (which reports version MAC 13.0.0.80, the latest)
I left working both the Mac and the Web versions of the Application opened on the pc screen (= not minimized) but kept totally behind some Terminal/ssh windows (= not on OS focus and the system is not asked to update any screen area of the app for sure).
I came back after about 2 hours and I got the browser version connected&running (but it is not a rule) and I also found the AIR-based Mac version disconnected (uau, usually I found the app disconnected but with the screen freezed at last user look ->) which rapidly reconnects upon my click on the Apple dock icon (bring to front).
Why these different behaviours? I ask to myself.
The two versions of the software are TOTALLY the SAME application: except for the first Flash file (a 24kb swf file for the Web version and a 170kb dmg file for the Mac version), basically a platform-dependent loader, both versions loads the same remote swf modules. Of course t is AIR (or my first Flash file?).
I attach the source code of the Mac version of the [first file] AIR-based application at the following url:
http://92.63.230.100/others/others/wtstarter_mac.as.txt
_Adobe_, is it a bug? isn't it?

Possible to pack Air runtime with mobile app?

Many friends told me if my mobile app need something else to be installed to run, they will quit. I think unless most mobiles installed Air runtime in the future. We must make the installation more user-friendly.
Can I pack the runtime together with app? Or is ther another work around?

Flex 4.6 / Air 3.0 introduced Captive Runtime, which is exactly what you are requesting. You choose the version of Flex/Air to be included in your app and it is bundled into the build. This has been the only option for iOS, but is now available for Android as well. When exporting a release build of your project in the newest version of Flash Builder, there is an option in the Deployment tab to "Export application with captive runtime".

Need HTTPService and play video in flex 4.6 Air Mobile App

We are porting a flex 3.2 app to mobile app. The 3.2 app uses mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to send XML requests for data and launch video web pages. Will a flex 4.6 Air Mobile app be able to do the same? If so, what replaces mx.rpc.http.HTTPService? I read that mx components will not work in Flex mobile apps.

HI,
Its working fine.And the mxml components which are displayobject should not be used in the mobile application except the chart.
So nothing wrong with using "mx.rpc.http.HTTPService",you can also use <s:HTTPService/>
Also there is a nice way to see which components should be used or which not for the mobile application.
Simply mouse over on the component when you have used it.You can see a message on that if that is not optimized for the mobile application like for the combobox you can see this message:-
"Adobe discourages using ComboBox when targeting profiles: mobileDevice."
While this is not the case with <s:HTTPService/>.
with Regards,

Air Mobile Apps cannot support printing ?

Dear all,
I am developing a writing notes application in Flex Mobile Apps for android and ios.
How can i allow use to print out the notes written?
Anyone can guide me how to achieve the printing to the printer?

I think you will have to extend your project by using Native Extensions, since that functionality is not built into AIR mobile. To learn more about ANEs, visit http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/developing-native-extensions-air.html

Duplicate session error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with CF10

We're getting the "duplicate session" error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with Coldfusion 10 Standard.
faultCode:Server.Processing.DuplicateSessionDetected faultString:'Detected duplicate HTTP-based FlexSessions,
generally due to the remote host disabling session cookies.
Session cookies must be enabled to manage the client connection correctly.' faultDetail:'null'
Have read most of the docs about this error -all to do with LCDS
Notes:
Not using LCDS,
No Remote Calls from loaded Sub-Apps,
No Errors from the Flex Web App which is pretty much identical and calls the same cfcs.
The error does not happen all the time and is hard to reproduce - say 5% of app sessions at a guess.
Could it be a two first time remote calls hitting the server together before a session is set up?
Our remoteObjects are in two places 1) Main Application.mxml and within a class compiled into the main app - can't see how this would be an issue.
I enabled session management for the CFCs in Application.cfc but still occurs. Is this neccessary - it's not in any docs?
Could this be something to do with the app not being shut down - as is typical with mobile users? When they resume use after a day or two surely a new session will be created?
Please advise thank you.

For our profect I think this issue was caused as follows:
Believing that remoting was full asynchronous we fired a 2 or 3 remote calls to the server at the same time ( within the same function ) - usually when the users goes to a new section of the app.
This seemed to trigger the duplicate http session error since according to http://blogs.adobe.com/lin/2011/05/duplication-session-error.html two remote calls arriving before a session is created will cause 2 sessions to be created.
Our current solution ( too early to say it works ) is to daisy chain the multiple calls together .
Also there seemed to be an issue where mobile apps that never quit ( thanks Apple! ) caused the error when activated after a few hours.
I guess the session expires on the server and the error above occurs on activation.
So the mobile apps now ping the server with a remote call when activated after sleeping for more than one hour.
All duplicate http errors are silently caught and reported.
Fingers crossed we won't get any more!

Kind Chef mobile app, used Starling and Adobe AIR

Hi everyone,
Recently we were busily working on an idea called "KindChef" which is a system that helps restaurants and we as customers.
We have started a campaign for it on Indiegogo site, which is a crowdfunding site backed by Google as some of you may have heard about it, so that we can find the ones who are interested in the idea and can back us and contribute to it to help us make it happen...
here is the campaign link: http://igg.me/at/kindchef/x/5769968
We have developed a MVP (Minimum viable product) mobile app for it, using Starling and Adobe AIR. But it's not the end product and is not so optimized yet. It's just a sample app to show how the system works, but yet so many other features will be added to it's release version as we have discussed on the campaign page.
We're also going to develop a control panel for restaurants too to manage their restaurant better. we're also going to develop a desktop app for them using Adobe AIR.
Honestly, there are two reasons why I am talking about it here:
1) the Web developer’s perks, which provides AS3 programmers with many useful designs and OOP code snippets that we have used while developing the project and can help you a lot on your projects.
Also we are giving away all of the Adobe AIR Native Extensions that have been used inside of the project.
2) the second reason is to spread the word. Because sharing a campaign is a really important thing as Indiegogo counts this as a positive point for the campaigns, so if you just share it you have helped us a lot in our way, or you may also contribute to it
Please visit the link above and find more information about it for yourself.
The most important way that you can help us, is by sharing the campaign link with your friends.
Please feel free to ask any questions about the whole idea and system or the app.
Best,
MyFlashlab team.

How to use ScaleNine themes to skin an Adobe Air Mobile App

Hi,
I'm rather new to Adobe Air development But I really like it! Now that I've created my app I would like to skin it. I've found ScaleNine (http://www.scalenine.com/gallery/gallery-1.php) which has ready made cool skins for Flex and Air. I downloaded the samples and they compile and work beautifully. HOWEVER: I can't seem to be able to use them to skin my Air mobile app.
Can anyone post an example ViewNavigatorApplication themed with one of the themes there? this one (http://www.scalenine.com/themes/blend/Blend.html) looks as though someone tailored it to my app :-)
Thanks a lot!
Avi

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.

Export offline mobile app datagrid to file able to open in Excel

I created an offline mobile app using Flash and I have a datagrid I would like to export/save as a file (csv maybe) that can later be opened by Excel. I appreciate any help.

My datagrid looks like this...
Time
Description
Duration
00:03
Loud
4
00:28
Smatter
7
00:50
Medium
10
01:06

I used this code to create the datagrid...
import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.controls.DataGrid;
import fl.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
var historyArray:Array = [];
historyArray = [];
list_history.dataProvider = new DataProvider(historyArray);
var list_history:fl.controls.DataGrid;
list_history.addColumn("Time");
list_history.addColumn("Description");
list_history.addColumn("Duration");
list_history.columns = ["Time", "Description", "Duration"];
I tried modifying the code you shared with me, but I think I am confusing myself more. Do you see where I am making mistakes with the code below?
var data:Array = [];
   // data header
    data[0] = {a:'Time',b:'Description',c:'Duration'};
    // data body
     for (var i:int = 0;i<list_history.columns.length;i++)
data[i] = {a:list_history.columns.dataField ('Time'),b:list_history.columns.dataField ('Description'),c: list_history.columns.dataField ('Duration')};
//make a csv string
    var csv:String = '';
    for (var i:int = 0;i<list_history.columns.length;i++)
               csv += data[i].a + ',' + data[i].b + ',' + data[i].c+'\n';
    //write to disk
     stage.doubleClickEnabled = true;
     stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK,writeCSV);
    function writeCSV(event:MouseEvent):void
         var file:FileReference = new FileReference();
         var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
         bytes.writeUTFBytes(csv);
         file.save(bytes,'test.csv');
Thank you for your help on this.

Can Flash Builder actually make native mobile apps as advertised? Or does it always require AIR?

I'm developing mobile applications on AIR with FlashDevelop. It's a very nice platform to develop on, but AIR is a whopping huge download for mobile, especially over an expensive 3G connection. I'm worried about driving away potential customers with that and I'd love to find something that builds native apps instead. So I was very excited when I went to the Flash Builder page and read:
"Build uncompromised native applications for iOS, Android, and Blackberry Tablet OS..."
However, when I started looking at the documentation, everything always seems to still be based on AIR. And AIR apps are definitively not native.
Does anyone know if I've just missed something and Flash Builder really is able to build native apps? Or is Adobe just blowing smoke and redefining words?
Thanks!

I don't see what the problem with running on a virtual machine would be. Most Android apps run on a virtual machine. Or isn't Dalvik a virtual machine?
However, this is true for Android and not for iOS. On Android, your application is compiled to bytecode and then run on a virtual machine. This has the advantage of allowing you app size to be smaller, since users can download the AIR runtime separately and share it among different apps.
On iOS, it is compiled to machine language. Otherwise, Apple would not allow its distribution on the app store.
Some features are tailored for a specific environment (for example, text input controls). Some features are available on some environments and not on others, and the runtime provides functions to determine whether they are available or not.

USB communication AIR desktop and AIR mobile app

Hi! Does somebody know the possibilites of USB communication between and AIR desktop app and an AIR mobile app. I need to send files from an desktop application to the external memory on an mobile device. Is it possible for the desktop app to recognise when the mobile is connected. And is it possible for the mobile app to send commands the desktop app? So I need a two way communication. Anybody who has any ideas?

InDesign png export for mobile app

Dear All,
I have put together a number of text boxes and images in InDesign Creative Cloud CS6 and exported them as one png (or jpeg) image for use in a jQuery mobile iPhone app that I'm creating in Dreamweaver. Will this work? Rather than inserting text box, image, text box, images, text box, images, etc. into a page of the mobile app, can I just create one png image in InDesign that includes everything, various text boxes, images, wrapped images, html active inserts, etc., and have people scroll through it as a page in the iPhone app? The InDesign file for this one page is about 1.1 mb right now. Will this png image be able to zoom and do everthing it needs to do in the iPhone app? Creative Cloud CS6 - Mac - Lion 10.7.4. Thanks.
Small Town Gal

Dear Jongware,
My thinking is the same as yours. If the iPhone app will allow you to zoom a single image, it must allow you to also zoom a compounded image. I like the design format of InDesign better than the jQuery Mobile design page in Dreamweaver because InDesign allows you to do text wrap around images and just set things up in a more dynamic fashion. We still want people to be able to zoom in on a single smaller image in order to view it up close, however so if the code in the iPhone app allows the viewer to zoom in on an individual image, it should allow a scroll and zoom in on a larger page that is also a png image -- makes sense to me. The scroll feature works in the multiscreen view and in Safari browser, but it doesn't allow a zoom preview -- I'll have to do that in the iPhone itself.
Anyone else out there have any ideas? Thanks to Jongware.

Playing HTML 5 animations/ interactives from AIR mobile app

Hi,
Is it possible to play/ launch HTML5 animations and interactives [drag n drop, cloze, etc] from an AIR based mobile app supporting iOS and Andorid devices?

Hi
It seem's to be a common issue of ghosting itemrender.
In flex item renderer is reused to keep memory performance.
You can try this fix
1- you can fix it by turning the "virtual layout" property of the llist to false;
But it will decrease the performance, because you turn off the behavior of reusing item renderer
2- you can override the "set data(data:object)" function of your item renderer class and move the "field=data" assignement inside it.
3- Or you can use a dataChange event handling function instead of the creationComplete.
I hope it's help you
