Flex with php air application

Hi ,
I am new in flex.
Actually i make a flex with php desktop application. There are two problems which i am not getting:
a.) I make three module which i load on tab navigator click . These mudules working fine . But when i make this project export relese build to make .exe file . These modules not added in installation file.
i.e after installation i have to copy these modules .swf file in program files where the application installed. So i want to know is there is any method so that module added in the .exe file so that they by default goes at the
time of installation of exe.
b.) I use php services in this project and when i insatlled the application to system its not working untill i add the the project service php file and zend frame work folder on user wamp . Is there any method that all these happen by default at the time of insatllation.

Hi,
AIR is best suited to be a client application.
P.S: Since you are using PHP, you may want to take a look at
amfphp so that you can use AMF to speed up data transfer between
your AIR app and the PHP server.

Has anybody been sucessful in integrating other Video encoders (on2 Flix, Mainconcept) with Adobe AIR applications

Has anybody been sucessful in integrating other Video
encoders (on2 Flix, Mainconcept, or any other commercially
available video encoder) with Adobe AIR live video streaming
applications ?
Most of the companies provide SDK's
Is it possible at all to integrate them with Adobe Air
applications built using Flex/ Actionscript?

With the use of a little Alchemy magic, you can turn a C/C++ library into actionscript accessable classes!

CS4 or FLEX Builder for AIR Application?

Hello,
I have installed CS4 and Flex builder 3. I would like to develop some desktop applications, which is the best editor to develop AIR application?
Thank you

I faced a similar choice recently: Flash or Flex for developing CS4 panels.
John Nack advised me to use Flex Builder. He was right. For a desktop AIR application or something like CS4 panels, the Flex Builder IDE is more powerful and helpful. If you're a developer familiar with other programming tool IDEs, like Microsoft Visual Studio, various Java IDEs, etc. then you will find the Flx Builder IDE to be more intuitive.
Flash is a good choice for developing animated SWF panels that are driving things like Flash movies. If you use Flash, you'll have to deal with the Timeline. With Flex Builder, you don't.
They both provide access to Action Script. But they expose functionality differently. Also, Flex Builder provides some data visualization tools, etc. that are not part of Flash.

Reuse a Flex App as AIR application

Hi!
I've developed a Flex application and now I want to use it
again with the same codebase as an AIR application.
But there are several factors that don't work as expected.
The Flex App uses some advanced features that make reuse a
little bit complicated:
I use the latest Cairngorm.swc in the app.
I use ResourceBundles in the app.
I often use "Application.application" in the app.
These are the three things, which make porting to AIR a
little bit complicated.
Are there any "Best practices" for sharing the same codebase
for Flex and AIR?
I've tried to make the Flex app a module and reuse that, but
then I get troubles with ResourceBundles, also the addressing
doesn't work correctly anymore (I've refactored the
Application.application.<element> calls to say:
Application.application.app.<element> where "app" is the ID
of the ModuleLoader). But I get the error that
<ApplicationType> cannot be converted to ModuleLoader.
Then I've tried to make a SWC out of the App, didn't work
either.
Has someone already done things like that?
What's the best way to accomplish that?
Thanks a lot for replies!
Bye,
Fritz

Hi.
Based on Adobe's document
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/articles/flex_air_codebase.html
which I haven't found earlier, I got the project working with all
my special things lik Cairngorm and ResourceBundle.
Currently I'm writing a tutorial how this works, I'll post it
for further use on monday :-)
Bye,

FLEX with PHP (Overview)

Hello FLEX-PHP Gurus,
I am a PHP programmer who wants to start using FLEX.
I need to create of graphing applications that take huge
amounts of data from the server.I have the Flex 2 SDK with
charting. I am using Apache as my web server. I understand that I
would need an AMF to communicate between PHP and Flex2. What else
would I need?
Also, am I losing out on any Flex functionality by not using
Java technologies at the backend?
Thanks,
Rati

Catch one of the webcasts. That cleared things up for me. web
service is XML, so it is slower than the binary data transfers (amf
or weborbs). I am a complete newb to flex...but that is the messag
that was conveyed, the more data, the bigger the benefit of the amf
stuff.
http://www.themidnightcoders.com/blog/.
I am only using the serbvice though, and it is simple
compared to what would be required in c# or php to consume the web
service.
some benchmarks:

Need some help with my Air Application

Hello Friends
I am developing a desktop application which have few modules from flex and few from HTML-Perl based existing application.
I am using <mx:Html> component for showing that HTML-Perl Application.
That application is running fine inside <mx:Html> but when we reach to the last step of the application which has payment integrated with other website.
It sends the request but never gives back the response from the other website.
To make it clear you can assume its a shopping website wrapped inside Air Applicaion with <mx:Html> componenet and we make a call to payment portal like paypal or other the response never comes back.
Can you guys tell me what could be the issue?
Regards
Harpreet

So if i am understanding correctly once the J button ("Donate 10") ios clicked you want it to call the program. What i suggest is using the action listner on that button and inside action performed class have it call the program. somthing like this
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
SMSObject send;
JButton b1 = new JButton("Donate 10", leftButtonIcon);
b1.addActionListener(this);
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
send = new SMSObject(param)
send.run();
Basically create a vararible of the type SMSObjest, add an actionlistner to the button and inside the actionperformed call the method

Anyone use Flex with php for file upload? PHP Notice: Undefined index: Filedata

My code works. It uploads the file and inputs the file name into a database, but I can't shake this php notice. I think php is looking for multipart/form-data from the HTML form tag.
<form action="upload.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"/>
But I am using flex. The multipart/form-data info is sent as the second default argument of the upload() function. Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks.
PHP Notice: Undefined index: Filedata
$filename = $_FILES['Filedata']['name'];
public function selectHandler(event:Event):void {
 request = new URLRequest(UPLOAD_DIR);
 try {
 fileRef.upload(request);
 textarea1.text = "Uploading " + fileRef.name + "...";
 catch (error:Error) {
 trace("Unable to upload file.");
 textarea1.text += "\nUnable to upload file.";

Hi, Thanks for your reply !
Im not getting any errors Flex side, as i say i get a alert message saying the file has been uploaded so . .
I am using a Wamp server on a windows machine, how do i check the file permissions on both the folder and the php file ?
Also how do i debug a php file ?
ANy help would be thankful !

Tampering with installed AIR applications is POSSIBLE

I was surprised to discover that my installed AIR package is
fully extracted to the installation directory and all of my content
files are available for any one to view.
Worse than that, I thought that one of the benefits of having
code signed packages was that the runtime would detect any
tampering with the resources in the package not only when the
package is first installed (protecting the user) but when the
packaged application is launched (protecting the application
provider who will probably be connecting the application to their
web services).
But experimentation has proved that the runtime does NOT
detect tampering when an application is launched. I adjusted the
security privileges on some of the installed content files and then
edited some html and javascript files that were part of my package.
When I launched the application the runtime happily loaded and
executed my altered content.

The problem is that code injection provides an easy avenue
for a hacker to piggy back new calls to the web service in the
middle of execution of the application in a privileged portion of
the application where security mechanisms have already granted
access to the application but before that access has been revoked.
Being that all AIR code is executed within the AIR Runtime it would
have been beneficial to developers to have the runtime ensure that
code has not been tampered with as it is loaded into the Runtime
environment. In a native desktop application there are more
capabilities that developers can call upon to help ensure the
integrity of their application. The AIR runtime does expose some
features that might enable developers to implement their own tamper
checks but it certainly will not be trivial nor performant to do
so.

Problem with an AIR application on OS X 10.8

Hello everyone,
Let me start with a small explanation of what I am and what I do:
I am currently working under the alter ego named "Boompje" to provide roughly 100.000 people a working Mac client for a major online game (named League of Legends). The lobby room (named PvP.net) of this game runs natively through Adobe AIR.
The problem can be described as following:
On both OS X 10.6 and 10.7 there are zero issues with the PvP.net app. However, on 10.8 (released today) it is impossible to use this PvP.net app. It is abled to launch, but as soon as it needs to connect to servers, it errors out.
The only error message that appears is:
TypeError: Error #1034
Opened log file:
/Users/xxxxxxxxxxxx/Desktop/iLoL Open Beta 1.1.app/Contents/Resources/PvP.net.app/Contents/Resources/logs/LolClient.20120725.215638. log
Module configurations loaded.
We have tried to replace the AIR framework with all 3.x versions, but that is to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll check this post a few times a day, any specific input will be provided if asked.
With kind regards,
Koen Hendrix // Boompje

Thanks Koen,
For reference, our internal bug number is 3223005. We believe we have an idea what's going on with your rtmps and we're working with Apple to resolve the problem. We'll update the public bug when we have additional info, but feel free to ping this thread or me directly ([email protected]) for updates.
Marcus, I suspect you're running into a different problem. Could you add yours to bugbase.adobe.com too?

Problem with signing AIR application on Mac

I have a Code Signing key from Comodo as a P7s file which has been imported into Keychain Access on my Mac.
Keychain Access lets me export the key to a P12 file but does not give me the option to export the key with the entire chain intact.
I can successfully identify the exported key but then when I try to export a release build I get the error:
Error creating AIR file: Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer.
Any suggestions on how to overcome this issue?
TIA

I think someone in the AIR forums will have a higher probability of knowing how to do this using Keychain:

Air application loading flex applications(no Air) with flex linked as RSL.

Hello
I am trying to make an AIR application which loads number of flex applications(no AIR). The subapplications are using the Flex SDK as a RSL, and each of them can use different version of the SDK.
The problem is that the subapplicationsare trying to load the needed SDK from local filesystem, which they are not permited.
public class CrossDomainRSLItem extends RSLItem
     override public function load(progressHandler:Function,

Hi again.
Is there any way to reliably edit the trust files with AIR application?
As I see it we have to make the user to add our folder to the trusted locations, or to use some application which can find and write in the FlashPlayerTrust (native for the specific OS installer for example.). (even finding this directory with an AIR application seems not 100% reliable).
Thanks in advance for you help.
Ps: Right now I am trying to patch this.
I compiled some sub-applications using custom preloader class(the controlling class, not the UI), where I removed the RSL loading. After that in an ApplicationDomain I load all the RSLs with loaders. After that I load the sub-application in the same domain. On paper this should work, but the sub-application can't find the classes from the RSLs(the first exeption is that there is no definition for spark.components.Application)

Embedding a mini webserver with AIR applications

After failing to find a solution to the problem I mentioned
here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=75&catid=697&threadid =1392396&highlight_key=y&keyword1=jpeg
and in several other threads,,
I started looking for ways to use external libraries,, and
possibly
the GD Library.
Is it possible to embed a mini web server with Adobe Air
applications
(along with the GD library) ?? Has anybody succeeded in
achieving
similar tasks ??

No there isn't a good way to do this from AIR. The biggest
problem is that you couldn't start up the server from AIR, so a
user would always need to start the server, then start your AIR
app.
You could use Pixel Bender to solve your image resizing
quality problem. Pixel Bender is available in the Flash 10 beta
now, and should be available in the next release of AIR. (See
http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Pixel_Bender_Toolkit.)
Note that your image quality problem is not with the JPEG encoder,
it is the resize operation. Since bitmap smoothing is not working
for some reason, you get nearest neighbor sampling -- which
produces the artifacts that you see in your images. Using Pixel
Bender you could code your own resize filter that uses bilinear or
even bicubic sampling.

Identical flex-air applications do not compile

I'm having terrible difficulty with writing Air Applications for compiling with the flex 3.2 SDK.

Hi Randy, This forum really isn't the place to try to get support on app compilation. We try to keep discussion here to development of the SDK itself. I'd suggest looking at the regular Flex forums or flexcoders and posting more details as to the error you're seeing.
