Flex 3 + Flash Player 9,0,16

I'm currently very close to deployment of a major flex 3
application deployment into a corporate environment with thousands
of distributed desktops. The IT group has Flash 9,0,16 installed on
the images for those machines, and a full rollout to a current
(9,0,115) version of the player will take months (don't ask,
they're mindbogglingly slow). Does anyone have a copy of the 9,0,16
Debug player for mac or PC? It's not in the fp_archive distribution
of historical versions. I've got some issues that crop up
specifically in this version of the player, but I can't find a copy
of the debug version anywhere.

Thank you for the help, however I don't see any publish
settings that would allow me to publish a swf for version 9,0,16,0
instead of the new version 9,0,124,0. If I go all the way back to
version 8 my AS3 and flv videos won't work anymore.

How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?

How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?
Basically I like the control over the compiling process that I get by using Ant - but I really want traces to come up immediately without having to switch contexts.
I have an ant file that successfully launches a swf in the flashplayer - but I don't know how to make the flex console start displaying the trace output. I assume that I will have to point it to the appropriate trace output file - but I am not sure how to have ant even address the console. Is this possible?
Here is the the target node from my ANT file:
    <target name="launch">
        <exec executable="${FLASHPLAYER_EXE}" errorproperty="trace.output">
            <arg line="'${DEPLOY_DIR}\test.swf'" />
        </exec>
    </target>
Thanks for any thoughts, or alternatives!

For the record, I ended up using Logwatcher - it worked perfectly.

Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 Debugging not working with latest Flash Player Debug

First to emphasize that never had such issues with Flex
Builder 2 Beta 2 and Flash Player 9.0.47 Debug version.
I downloaded Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 and installed it. Then
trying to debug any Flex app (old or newly created) does not work.
I don’t get any errors, but after some research I saw
it’s nagging up on trying to connect to the Flash Player
debug version.
1. Uninstalled old versions of Flash Player (FP).
2. Downloaded latest debug version of FP 9 (9.0.115) and
installed it both for IE and Opera (Netscape-compatible).
3. Installed Flex Builder 3 Beta 3.
4. Created a simple Flex app.
5. Ran it in debug mode.
6. Showed a small window with title “Progress
Information” and a progress + text: Waiting for Flash Player
to connect to debugger…
7. Two minutes later I got the error: “Failed to
connect; session timed out. Ensure that: 1. You compiled your Flash
application with debugging on. 2. You are running the debugger
version of Flash Player.”
Any idea what is wrong? I tried to download an older debug
version but then FB 3 Beta 3 raises the error it’s expecting
version 9.0.115. I searched to download FB3 Beta 2 (because I
deleted it after downloading Beta 3) but unfortunately Adobe did
their best to wipe it out from their links.
Any help is welcome.

Hi Dimitar,
Did you close all the browsers (and applications which use
Flash Player) when you install Flex Builder 3 Beta 3 or Flash
Player? You can try manually installing it from <FB install
location>/player/ directory. Here're some
installation/unintallation instructions of Flash Player:

Flash player in firefox is not giving the exact mouse coordinates while running a flex application in firefox. Actually it was working fine in the previous versions. I mean in the ver 5.5. In the latest version its not working fine

Hi Friends,
I face some mouse issues with the later versions of the Firefox (6 and above). When a flex application is executed in a Firefox, It runs on the flash player in the browser. While getting the mouse coordinates, flash player is returning some bad coordinates. Please respond to this as soon as possible

Is this a bug in Flash Player or Flex?

Compile and run this code (it is generated when you select New MXML Application) with FlashBuilder4.5:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
<fx:Declarations>

</fx:Declarations>
</s:Application>
If you are using IE, you will see a blue player control panel. But there should be nothing displayed because there is no
visual components in the code above.
If you are using FireFox, there is nothing displayed.
Same behaves for mx:Application.
I think it is a bug with Flash Player or Flex. How can Flex behave differently with different browsers?

This is what I see in IE 9.0.8112.16421, but not in FF.

Any tutorials on how to use the daily build of the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

Is there a tutorial on Adobe on how to use the daily build of
the Flex SDK to create Flash Player 10 content?

The approach you take might depend on a few things, but it boils down to using mouse interactive coding to trigger whatever effect you eventually realize. The code you use will depend on the version of Actionscript you plan to use.
You could make this as a movieclip that is normally stopped at its first frame and when you mouseover or click the movieclip, it animates along its own timeline to its enlarged state. If the thumbnail is very small and the larger version is substantially larger, and both need to be clear images, this might be the better approach.
If this only involves enlarging something, you could also probably realize it just using Actionscript Tween coding rather than timeline animation.

Flex 2 SWF not loading on the web browser when Flash Player 8 is running

I got a Flex 2 application that is not loading on the web
browser when the users workstations got Macromedia Flash Player 8

Flex 3.5 and Flash Player 10 -- text disappears?

Hello,
I have an interesting problem. I have been developing a client app for the last year or so with Flex 3.5, compiled against a minimum version of Flash Player 9 in Flex Builder. It's a Facebook app.
Then I needed to move it to the web, use the Facebook Graph API, and to make it work on IE compile against a minimum Flash Player version of 10.
The Labels in my DataGrids and Lists no longer display their text. I've confirmed this by changing the Flex Builder setting and going back and forth between builds a few times.
Can anyone give me an idea what is happening?
John S.

Are you using 3.5 targeted for 10 or 4.x? If you moved to 4.x and are
embedding fonts, you have to set embedAsCFF=false in the @fontFace

Too small window size in standalone flash player in FLEX

Hello,
I have unchecked the option "generate html wrapper file" so I
don't have to bother about closing the browser tab each time I make
a small change to the code and rerun the application.
This works fine as the standalone flash player closes when I
terminate the application from Flex. However, the standalone flash
player always starts in a fixed window size smaller than my
application size so that I cannot see the whole application. So I
have to enlarge the window size of the standalone flash player each
time which is annoying!
Is there a better solution?
Maybe get Flex to close the browser tab after I terminate the
application. I still prefer to use the standalone flash player
during development as my application doesn't depend on the browser
though.

Can we use Flash Player 11 abilities through Flex SDK 4.5.1?

Hi All
As you know BitmapData has some limitation for image size and resolution in Flash Player 10 (maximum resolution is 8192) and for Flash Player version 11 and later, Adobe fixed this limitation and depends on OS we can have all type of huge resolutions in BitmapData.
But my problem is now I'm using Flex SDK 4.5.1 which base Flash Player is 10.2.159.1.
So is there any possibility to use this benefit of Flash Player 11 with my current Flex SDK with implementing a restriction based on Flash version with something like Capabilities.version or not?
Thanks in advance

Tanx, But I must keep my current version of Flash Player and I'm not able to change swf-version or target-player through compiler settings arguments or etc... I just need these feature for BitmapData.
Can I use something like this to check if my object has new methods of Flash Player or not:
if(myInstance.hasOwnProperty("newMethodInFlashEleven")) myInstance[newMethodInFlashEleven]();
Is there any new method for BitmpaData class in Flash player 11, to check it based on that?!

What Flash Player for Flex builder 3?

I am just getting started with Flex & hitting a lot of roadblocks. Getting files for Day 1 helped. When I try to "run" a project I get asked for Flash Player 9. I uninstalled Player 10, found Player 9 for developers, installed, but Flex still does not see it. If I tell Flex to use current player I get bounced to a command prompt.
So, what Flash player are you guys using & ...how?
thanks

Probably the same one you're using at http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html.
Adobe Flash Player 9 — Debugger Versions (aka debug players or content debuggers) for Flex and Flash Developers
On occasion though I have to completely uninstall Flash player first and then install the plug-in and activeX components.

How can i use flash player's 10 features in flex builder 3?
Thanks

I was able to solve my problem by modifying the solution
offered in
this
technote.
The technote identifies a permissions problem with the
components directory of non-Safari browsers. In my case the
permissions problem appears to have been in the main
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins directory. What tipped me off to the
solution was the fact that after manually removing Flash
Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt from the /Library/Internet
Plug-Ins directory, subsequent attempts to install Flash Player
resulted in the "Creating file: 1008:5, -5000 Access Denied Error"
I remembered seeing in the technote. Before removing these files,
the installer would just fail silently, perhaps because it saw
files it was going to install already living in the right place,
and furthermore had no permissions to alter the directory.
In any case, by making the permissions change recommended in
the technote to the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins directory, I was
able to install the plug-in, which gave me back access to Flash
content in all my browsers.
Hope this is helpful to someone else...

Compile to Flash Player 11 with Flex 3.6?

The Flex 3.6a sdk doesn't support -swf-version in the compiler arguments -- I'd like to take advantage of some new features such as image encoding...
Is there any way to get this working? (using FB 4.6)
Thanks,
Scott

Thanks but target player is actually a different option (it used to be merged with swf-version) -- swf-version was added and is required now to compile against flash player 11.

Running Flash Player and Flex on HPUX and AIX

Hi
Issue: HPUX 11iv2 PARISC and Itanium and AIX 5.1 and 5.2
(PPC) are not listed in the systemj requirements of Flash Player.
And So affects the Flex SDK Applications?
Does this mean these OS are NOT Supported currently and FLEX
applications cannot run ont these OS browsers?
If no, if and when would Flex Applications be able to run on
HPUX and AIX systems?
This is major concern for choosing the Adoe's Flash
Player-Flex technologies for our big solutions, in Web RIA.
Thanks in advance, NG

Hi
Got answer for HPUX but seems like its half-baked, as there
are plugins for Macromedia Flash Player version 6 in Mozill and
Firefox 1.5 browsers on PA and itanium.
See links:
http://www.hp.com/products1/unix/java/firefox/firefox_plug-ins.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
http://www.hp.com/products1/unix/java/mozilla/mozilla_plugins.html
Lemme know if anyonw knows on the Flash v 8 or 9.
Thanks

Unexpected behaviour for flex application running on Mac 10.8 with Flash player 12 on Safari

I have scenario here : I am running my flex application in my Mac 10.8 machine with Flash player 12 on Safari browser . I have a registration form and it is validating various fields in it and when I hit Continue button it is not navigating to the next screen even if all the fields are validated. This registration form is a Popup. Can any body help me with this?

No, the problem still occurs.
It's weird there are no plug-in errors or something.
With fp installed:
with fp uninstalled:
as a side note: a few weeks ago, I made a new clean Mac OS installation because of a harddrive replacement. So, the whole system is actually very tidy...

Flex SDK 4.5 && flash player version

Why does Flex SDK 4.5 requires minimum flash player version 10.1 not 10 ?

I think the question was "Which flex components will not work in right way if we compile project with Flex SDK 4.5 and then run it in Flash Player 10.0 enviroment?"
For example - as I understand some new components in Flex SDK 4.5 use flash.globalization classes - so new spark formatters and ?validators? will not work in in Flash Player 10.0.
    * spark.formatter.NumberFormatter
    * spark.formatter.CurrencyFormatter
    * spark.formatter.DateTimeFormatter
    * spark.globalization.SortingCollator
    * spark.globalization.MatchingCollator
    * spark.globalization.StringTools
Also we have to pay attension to 'string sorting' functionality - because it could be dependent on flash.globalization also.
Are there another 'danger' components in Flex SDK 4.5 ?
