Flex Air App... and SQLite

I was hoping someone can point me in the direction to learn the SQLite on Adobe Air... I need something simple to start out... Most of what i found is rather complicated, and get's kind of confusing...
Do you have to create the database at run-time?

AIR app and Flex app in same Flex builder project

Hi,
I've developed a flex app with a lot of custom components.
Now I want to create a desktop version of the same using the same
exact same components. Is it possible that I add an mxml
application, make it a WindowedApplication and compile it to
produce an AIR app? Or are there any workarounds to accomplish
this.

Easiest way I have found is to complete your Flex Web app.
Then create a new Flex AIR app and then copy code from your working
Flex Web app over.
Yes, you end up with two complete sets of code, but if that
is going to become an issue with keeping both versions up to date
you can simply use one set of source.
To do this, create two projects, one Web, one Air. Then you
can create a third folder (not project) that contains all the
common code.
In each of your projects, simply import the code you want to
use using the project options.
No, not ideal, but does work. Would be nice to see Flex
Builder changed so you can have rooted projects.
E.g. A project called "MyBigApplication" that isn't targetted
at any platform. Within this you could then produce sub-projects
that target a particular platform, be it web or air but share code.
Maybe in the next version.....

Example working Flex AIR app for Android?

I'm having trouble getting even the most basic AIR app working on Android. Here is the code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                        xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                        xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" xmlns:local="*"
                        width="600" height="600">
     <fx:Declarations>
         
     </fx:Declarations>
     <mx:Label text="Hello World"/>
</s:WindowedApplication>
It works fine running on Windows in Flash Builder, obviously it's pretty simple. Here are the commands I use to put it on a Samsung Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2.
C:\Users\Ryan\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Test2\bin-release>adt -package -storetype pkcs12 -keystore C:\Users\Ryan\STG-Android.pfx Test2.air Test2-app.xml Test2.swf
password:
C:\Users\Ryan\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Test2\bin-release>adt -package -target apk -storetype pkcs12 -keystore C:\Users\Ryan\STG-Android.pfx Test2.apk Test2-app.xml Test2.swf
password:
test
C:\Users\Ryan\Adobe Flash Builder 4\Test2\bin-release>adb install -r Test2.apk
2286 KB/s (419172 bytes in 0.179s)
         pkg: /data/local/tmp/Test2.apk
Success
A Test2 app icon shows up on my Galaxy Tab under Applications but when I run the app I just see a plain white screen, I don't see the words "Hello World". Any ideas? Does anyone have an example Flex AIR app that works on Android and can post the code so I can try it on my Galaxy Tab? I know AIR is installed correctly on my Galaxy because I installed an AIR app called South Park Avatar Creator that I got from the market and it works fine.
Thanks,
Ryan
P.S. Here is the Test2-app.xml from my non-working project above in case it helps. This is the default generated with a new Flex app in Flash Builder 4 using the Flex 4.1.0 AIR 2.5 SDK but I uncommented the andoid tags and set the visible tag to true.

Flex Air Apps on Blackberry

I've had a Flex Air app on Playbook since it Adobe first supported Blackberry. But, I haven't had a client requirement for deploying to Blackberry in a long time. What is the status on Adobe's support for Blackberry? On the Air Dev Center, I see no references to Blackberry anymore???
Can I still build a cross-platform app for latest Blackberry devices (Blackberry 10, Playbook, etc.) using the standard Flex mobile components and Flash Builder 4.6?
After a brief search on Blackberry's Air page, it looks like they moved to requiring the QNX components, ANEs and a new pure AS3 SDK only. If I have to re-write code specific for Blackberry now, then it makes no sense for me to offer that to my clients. (unless they only want BB).
So, where does Adobe stand now with Flex Mobile in Flash Builder deploying to Blackberry 10 and the Playbook?
I'd appreciate if you could help bring me back up to speed.
Thanks,
Don

Absolutely, Flex works very well indeed and is fully supported on BlackBerry PlayBook and BB10 devices. The free packaging module for Flash Builder is part of the BB SDK for AIR and is supplied by RIM, not by Adobe.
With Flex you'll of course be using Adobe UI components, which look less native than the BB-supplied "pure AS3" UI components unless you skin them. But they work just fine.

Flash performance inside mx:HTML in a Flex AIR app

Hi. I'm new to AIR development and after doing some basic tutorials I thought I'd make a little stream player app.
The amount of tutorials on the web made me choose Flex / Flash Builder over HTML & JavaScript. When I built the player in Flex I saw performance was terrible when out of focus, I would say it drops to 3 fps if not less. Surprisingly when I downloaded someone else's similar app, his didn't have that problem. On closer inspection - he made it in HTML & JavaScript and HTML AIR apps dont suffer from the same problem.
Is there a fix for this Flex performance problem?
I've made a video demonstrating the difference between Flex & HTML for your convenience: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU2mfELhSC4.

Sure.
1.
Windows 7 Ultimate, 64bit, build 7600.
Adobe AIR 2.0.3.13070.
Unfortunately I only have machines with the exact same OS install at my disposal right now but I'll ask some people to test it on their boxes.
2. http://pastebin.com/AsdmD3Yb
When I point the mx:HTML to a youtube url instead of ustream.html the fps drops around to around 5 to 10. That's a lot more fps than when using ustream. Might be a clue to whats happening.

Unable to connect with Kuler Air app and Extension

Hi,
I am unable to connect Adobe Kuler Desktop(Air app). I can't login through the app. Only thing I can see when I launch the app is the RGB rotating, even after an hour.
I tried reinstalling the app two three time. No way. same issue persits.
I tried to connect through a proxy server enable and through a direct connection. same issue.
Not only the Kuler Desktop, but the plugin also has the same problem.
Please help.

Hello, I was getting the same RGB loading... issue, however I was able to Sign In at the bottom with my Adobe ID, and then themes started loading when I selected from the dropdown (e.g., Most Popular). It's a little slow, but seems to be working.

A way to expire an FLEX/AIR app?

Using Flex 3 I would like my AIR app to expire in 30 days after install. Anyone have any advice or example of this?

SQLite error in Flex/Air App:

I am trying to do a simple SQLite query from inside and Air application:
Statement.text = 'SELECT Ingredient' +
'FROM Ingredients'+
'WHERE FoodCatagory_FK = 6'
It works just fine in when I exicute the query in SQLite Manger, however in Air I get the follwoing error:
SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'near 'FoodCatagory_FK': syntax error', operation:'execute', detailID:'2003'
Not sure why it does not work, it seems pretty strait forward.
Thanks,

Hi,
You have to leave a space either after
Ingredients
or before
WHERE FoodCatagory_FK

SQLite error #3115 in Flex/Air App: with (')

Hi,
I am trying to do a simple SQLite query from inside and Air application:
var sqls:SQLStatement = new SQLStatement();
sqls.sqlConnection = sqlc;
sqls.text = "UPDATE videos SET thumb = 'ram's' where id = 2";
sqls.execute();
I need to add ' same as ram's
Error:
SQLError: 'Error #3115: SQL Error.', details:'near 's': syntax error', operation:'execute', detailID:'2003'
I'm using "addslashes()" but not working
Not sure why it does not work. Please help me.
Thanks,
Dhaval

The syntax for the update is incorrect, you can use the update statement as
sqls.text = "UPDATE videos SET thumb = 'ram' + '''s' where id = 2";
Let me know if this worked.

Google Trends in flex/AIR apps

Browser inside a Flash/FLex/Air-App with WebGL-Support?

Hello,
I´m using Adobe Air/Flex to build a Desktop App. Inside the App the user should be able to access an Internet Browser. This part is actually working so far.
BUT: THE ADOBE AIR BROWSER IS NOT SUPPORTING WEBGL.
Is there any method to activate the WebGL Support so I could open WebGL-Dependent URLs from Inside my Desktop App?
Sure, I could tell the User he should Alt+Tab to switch to an WebGL-Compatible Browser, but it would so much better if this all would work from inside my Application.
Thanks for answering!

Desktop AIR app and Facebook login

I try using this lib https://code.google.com/p/facebook-actionscript-api/, but when I call FacebookDesktop.init("820024968051122",loginHandler); I get error:
code: 2500
message: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.
type: OAuthException
If I call FacebookDesktop.init("820024968051122",loginHandler,"test_user_token"); then all work fine, but how I get token if user is not log in?

Thanks for the answer. How exactly Flash Builder is running is a little clearer to me now. I checked and the timestamps were indeed being updated correctly.
This helped me to look elsewhere for the issue. I actually now think it may have to do with mobile home sync that I have going through OS X. Whenever the sync runs, FB seems to launch an outdated (as in hours ago) version of the app. Despite the fact that the sync is not pulling in new files, it seems to be the issue. If i stop the sync I start seeing the current version of the app again when I run the debugger. So I think its just the OS causing my problem (although I still don't completely understand why exactly the issue would manifest itself in FB). Fortunately I can recreate the issue every time I run the sync, so the problem is consistent at least!
Thanks again for your help.

Convert HTML/javascript AIR app to flex-based AIR app?

Hi all,
I've already built an AIR app using HTML/javascript that I
would like to monetize.
I would like to use O2app's E-Commerce framework, which right
now only supports Flex-created AIR apps.
My question: Is there a simple way to "convert" an
HTML/javascript AIR app to Flex 3 format? I'd rather not have to
rebuild the app from scratch in Flex 3 if I don't have to. :)
Thanks,
Al

Hi,
There's no simple way to convert an HTML AIR app to flex.
But it is possible to create HTML Root windows from a Flex
AIR App. By root window, I mean the same kind of window that is
launched when you launch an HTML AIR App.
For more info, look at the HTMLLoader.createRootWindow()
call. (This will be available from a Flex AIR app as well)
