  xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.9"
is the the final sdk version or not if not what should i dowanlod the air sdk or flex sdk and what version plz
thanx

You can overlay newer versions of the AIR SDK over most Flex SDKs.  Adobe's latest version of Flex is 4.6 which shipped back in 2011, IIRC.  Apache Flex just shipped 4.13.0 and folks have definitely used it with the most recent AIR SDKs.

  • Flex 4.7 AIR 16.0 SDK invalid signature

    I Am trying to publish a beta version of my app to Apple to leverage TestFlight testers but I keep getting an Invalid Signature error. 
    Invalid Signature - Make sure you have signed your application with a distribution certificate, not an ad hoc certificate or a development certificate. Verify that the code signing settings in Xcode are correct at the target level (which override any values at the project level). If you are certain your code signing settings are correct, choose "Clean All" in Xcode, delete the "build" directory in the Finder, and rebuild your release target.
    I Have made sure to create a distribution certificate and provisioning profile.  I have also ensured the Default-568h@2x file is included. Not sure what else to do.
    i Am using Flex BuiOder 4.7 with air sdk 16.0 and am using XCODE 5.1.1 to build Certs and profiles.
    any suggestions?

    I used ditto on Mac. I would make a backup copy of the Flex SDK first.
    Then use ditto to update the SDK with AIR SDK.

  • Failed to build ipa after air sdk 16.272

    Our setting is flex 4.6 + air sdk.
    We are able to build our ipa with air 16.272.
    However, after updating the sdk to either 16.292 or using air 17, both them failed to build ipa.
    The error message is :
    Anyone knows what's causing the problem?

    I found best solution i could expect after i had little nice chat with Apple's developer helpdesk.
    This is response from Apple developer support specialist:
    Thanks for contacting Developer Technical Support. The size limits for binaries are not well documented, so I can understand your confusion. Size limit vary depending on the minimum OS for your app. 
    Your app has a minOS of 5.1.1, so iTunes Connect is enforcing an older binary limit of 80MB for the entire binary (the total of all slices).
    If you had a minOS of iOS 7 or higher, you’d see limits of 60MB per slice. (This is due to changes in the OS to allow for larger individual slices.)
    You are correct that the limit is on the __TEXT section.
    The most expedient way to resolve this issue is to increase your minimum OS requirements to at least iOS 7. According to the most recently information on our Developer website, 98% of devices are using iOS 7 or 8.
    (slice) - code compiled for one of architectures, we have two slices armv7 and arm64
    So you need to set MinimumOSVersion in application XML:
    <InfoAdditions>
                <![CDATA[
                  <key>UIDeviceFamily</key>
                <array>
                <string>2</string><!-- iPad -->
                </array>
                <key>MinimumOSVersion</key>
                <string>8.0.0</string>
      ]]>
            </InfoAdditions>
    And BOOM - you get 120mb limit!

  • How to setup Flex SDK with latest AIR SDK?

    Now the latest AIRSDK web page has a small link at the bottom for Flex users and it states that Flex users should take the SDK version without the compiler. BUT....
    the http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html page says to download the SDK from
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/asc2.html
    but this page now redirects to:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/archived-air-sdk-version.html
    which contains a large list of archived SDK's. So that help page never really says which version of the SDK to use - with or without the compiler. But other forum posts have implied its suppose to be the one with the compiler.
    Now since we're overlaying the ...plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK folder that would make sense.
    But now there's a second overlay instructions page at:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html
    with different instructions.
    So my questions are:
       Which overlay instructions are we really suppose to use?
       Which version of the AIR SDK (with or with-out compiler) are we suppose to use?
       What does the Flex Library Project properties -> Flex Library Compiler -> 'Include Adobe AIR libraries' checkbox really do?
            If I've followed the (first) overlay instructions above, does this checkbox now mean I'm using the overlaid AIR SDK 3.6
            with the current Flex SDK I've chosen?
            What if I'm using the Apache Flex 4.9.1 SDK? Will the AIR SDK 3.6 overlay that?
                (Doesn't Apache Flex have AIR 3.4 embedded - will this confuse Flash Builder 4.7 ?)
    Is it just me, or is this just getting more and more confusing? Can we perhaps get a AIR SDK combo box to go beside the Flex combo box and when we check the 'Include Adobe AIR libraries' then we can select the AIR SDK we want? And get a 'configure AIR SDKs...' link too? Then perhaps we can get completely away from overlays and all this merged SDK nonsense. I've had nothing but problems with it.
    The real reason I need all this info is because I'm trying to use Flash Builder 4.7 to build an Android ANE and I'm having a devil of a time just trying to find my resources. When I use context.getResourceID() I'm not getting the correct resources - and after reviewing other posts here I came to the conclusion that it might be due to bugs in older AIR SDK's. So really, at the moment I could care less about the latest Flex SDK, I just need to know I'm working from the latest AIR SDK.
    Thanks in advance.

    If you are not using Flash Builder go here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html
    At the bottom it says:
    Note : Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without the new compiler. Mac Windows.
    Download the proper one for your OS and then extract it over your existing Flex SDK directory.
    EDIT: Just read your post again and noticed you mentioned Flash Builder. In that case you want to follow these directions: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html and grab the version with the compiler at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html

  • Flex SDK and AIR runtime version in mobile

    Hi, guys.
    I'm trying to make my first Flex mobile app.
    I'm a little confused about the relationship between Flex SDK and AIR  runtime versions for mobile development.
    In the "Developing Mobile Applications with ADOBE FLEX 4.6 and ADOBE FLASH BUILDER 4.6" pdf document, it says:
    "AIR requirements
    Flex mobile projects and ActionScript mobile projects require AIR 2.6 or a higher version. You can run mobile projects on physical devices that support AIR 2.6 or a higher version of AIR.
    You can install AIR 2.6 or a higher version only on supported Android devices that run Android 2.2 or a higher version. For the complete list of supported Android devices, see Certified Devices. Also, review the minimum system requirements to run Adobe AIR on Android devices at Mobile System Requirements.
    Note: If you do not have a device that supports AIR 2.6 or a higher version of AIR, you can use Flash Builder to launch and debug mobile applications on the desktop."
    So, I go and check the Certified devices in http://www.adobe.com/devnet-apps/flashruntimes/certified-devices.html and find that the minimun FLASH PLAYER version accepted by ALL devices is FP 10.1
    1. Does this mean that if I want to release an app to target ALL mobile devices, then I can only use Flex 4.5?
    2. Do support for Flash Player mean the same than support for Adobe AIR? Or the application will prompt the user to install whatever version of the AIR runtime and all of them would be supported by the device, even in the FLASH PLAYER support is for a lesser version?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your help, Flex harUI,
    The first impression that comes to mind is that FP version is indeed only for the web browser plugin. Then, why does the official Flex 4.6 mobile development documentation have a link to that page that only speaks about the supported FP version in mobiles under the title "AIR requirements"??
    This makes it way too confusing.
    Do you know whether there is something like an equivalent matrix/list of mobile devices with their supported AIR runtime versions?  I went a great deal in trying to keep my original app under 400kb... I didn't know that in the end it would end up weighing 9.5Mb... :S
    Thanks again,

  • Does the new AIR SDK support iOS 64-bit for Flex Developers?

    I saw that the new AIR SDK(December 18, 2014) has supported iOS 64-bit, but it was only supported in the new compiler. See this:
    Please note that support for creating universal IPA binaries will only be available in the new compiler. The legacy compiler is not (and will not be)
    compatible with iOS 64-bit. Because of this, it will be removed with version 16 of the AIR SDK. To ensure that Adobe as well as third party tools
    are able to work with this AIR SDK, the -useLegacyAOT option will continue to exist, but will be internally mapped to the new compiler.
    AFAIK, the Flex uses the old compiler and AIR SDK for Flex Developers doesn't include ActionScript 2.0 Compiler. As a Flex developer, what shall I do?

    Hi,
    I guess, you might be packaging IPA on windows machine.  Please try latest beta at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air.html which has iOS64 support on Windows machine as well.
    Thanks

  • What is the official AIR SDK and FLEX version to release for iOS6 ?

    Hi,
    Wanted to know which AIR SDK and FLEX version is fully suporting the iOS6 to submit to Apple.
    I found that AIR SDK 3.4 is supporting iOS6, though the code created for iOS 6 is not working correctly when build from Flash Builder 4.7 AIR SDK 3.4 FLEX SDK 4.6 .

  • Overlaying adobe air sdk 13 for flex mobile project gives me error

    After overlaying adobe air sdk in flash builder 4.6 i am getting this error in my flex mobile project "Could not resolve <s:ViewNavigatorApplication> to a component implementation.". I have followed the steps mentioned on adobe site. Can anyone please suggest me what i need to do in order to get this work.

    You are probably missing the updated flash debug player that describes all the new methods to the application.
    There is a good walkthrough of how to upgrade flash builder to a new library version, this is described in the first video of hsharma's starling tutorials.
    Its very annoying though, i wish adobe would really build in a feature like this to update libraries.

  • Problems with mobile projects with apache flex 4.8 and an overlay of the latest air sdk

    Using flash builder 4.7 beta, apache flex 4.8 and an overlay of the latest air sdk, i got resolution problems while testing the mobile app (windows version on windows 7) with the air (ipad)emulator. That means the emulator is much bigger than my screen (logicaly seen the resolution of my screen and also like this in earlier version), but the app is much smaller than the emulator. As I have no design view with apache flex 4.8, I don't know where to start searching. Can anyone give me some input?

    Hi Crill,
    I don't see any error on creating new projects and running the same.
    Where did you get the installer from?
    What is the framework linkage type? You can check this in project properties -> flex build path. It should be Merged into code for Apache SDK.
    thanks,

  • Overlaying AIR SDK with Flex SDK

    I have noticed in the release notes for every AIR release it says to download Flex SDK 4.5.1 and the latest playerglobal.swc. Is there a reason why I should be downloading that version and not the latest (4.6)?
    Also is there anything wrong with overlaying Flex 4.x and the latest AIR SDK if all I'm developing for is AIR applications?

  • Where is the Flex/AIR SDK?

    Adobe used to release a combined SDK for Flex and Air that could be used with Flash Builder. There is still a link with this description on the Air SDK download page.
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html
    However, the combined SDK does not appear on the gaming page. There is only something new called the Gaming SDK.
    http://gaming.adobe.com/getstarted/
    Is the Flex/AIR SDK available somewhere for AIR 3.5? Or do I need to get the Gaming SDK?

    There is also an AIR SDK outside the gaming SDK. I am looking for the Flex/AIR combination.

  • Overlay new AIR sdk with old Flex sdk

    Is it possible to overlay AIR 3 sdk with flex 3.3 sdk without expecting errors?
    Any help, as always, would really be appreciated?...
    Cheers

    You may get some errors:
    Note:
    If the Flex SDK is newer than the AIR SDK, it can rely on AIR  functionality that isn't present, resulting in compile-time or runtime  errors.

  • How to install latest AIR SDK (13 or 14) in Flash Pro CS6?

    Hi, I'm using Adobe Flash Pro CS6 on Windows 7 64-bit and I wanted to add latest Adobe AIR SDK, either 13 or 14, but non of them is seen as a valid SDK by Flash.
    I've tried downloading two possible SDKs (SDK & compiler and SDK without compiler) from here: Download Adobe AIR SDK (version 13) and here http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air.html (version 14). Each time I copied the extracted SDK folder to my Flash CS6 folder where default 3.2 and 3.4 SDKs are located. After that I open Flash, then Help > Manage Air SDK, click on " + ", browse for the new folder, and all I get is "The selected folder does not contain a valid AIR SDK" warning message. It all looks the same with all four SDKs I downloaded!
    Not long ago I added AIR 4.0 without any problems. What am I doing wrong? Is new SDK Flash CC only or what?

    What are you naming the folder?
    Just as a general tip, since many applications (Flash CS4, 5, 5.5, 6, CC) you can save some space by only putting the AIR SDK in one place. Since CS6 and CC have "Manage AIR SDK" in their settings you no longer need to locate that folder like 5.5 which requires you to overlay the AIR 2.6 folder. So save some space and put it anywhere out of the way, out of the Flash folder. I have multiple drives and I have lots of SDKs installed at root on my E:\ (E:\SDK\AIR, E:\SDK\JDK, E:\SDK\Android, etc). I then just go in the help panel like you do and point CS6 and CC to E:\SDK\AIR and they work perfectly fine with the latest SDK released recently.
    Are you updating Flash Player to 13 as well?
    Last, do not download the Flex version for Flash. Flex is for Flash Builder if you intend on using Flex (it is different than Flash).
    Do not get this:
    You want the SDK from the big orange buttons above this warning.
