Improper Message while uninstalling AIR Desktop Application

when we uninstall any air application from control panel, we see like this
can we manage this so that it shows proper message while uninstalling ? Or any changes in "applname-app.xml" config file.
Or it is adobe side problem.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for taking a look into this.
Some details about the build environment:
- OS win 7
- english US
- IDE: Aptana Studio, build: 2.0.5.1278522500
- AIR plugin version: 2.0.0.1279138675-7B-Ya16i78BQW8ETNQK
- problem occurs on Win XP while trying to uninstall the app;
- problem also occurs on Win 7 while uninstalling (different behavior: initialy the confirm dialogue box is empty, pressing Cancel WHILE uninstall is already starte,d the same strange chars appear.)
- problem also occurs on latest AIR version (installed via badge);
- problem also if AIR and app are installed manually;
.air file will follow via email
Thank you again for taking your time with this,
Robert

How to load a FLEX application in an AIR desktop application.

I am creating an AIR desktop application (mx:WindowedApplication). I need to load another remote FLEX application (mx:Application) inside my AIR application.Is it possible ? If then ,please mention how to achieve this ..

If it is bundled with the air app, then it's as easy as using the SWFLoader class.
If it's loading from a remote host, you need to load it into your app as a ByteArray first.
More info here: http://aaronhardy.com/flex/loading-a-remote-module-into-a-local-app/
The example is for Modules, but the principal is the same I believe.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Justin,
ok, assuming that your external SWF tries to access some hosting application context (methods/properties) you could try:

                            applicationComplete="applicationCompleteHandler(event)">

Air desktop application: how to make a menu item bold?

Hi, I'm using Flash CS6 to develop an AIR desktop application for OSX. I've created my menu using NativeMenu and such, but I can't find a way to make the first menu item bold, like a true OSX app. So far the little I've found on this always referred to Flex, not Flash. Any hints?
Thank you.

Thank you, kglad.
I think I forgot to mention I'm building an Application Menu. The NativeMenu contains NativeMenuItems and there is no format property or method that I can see. Also, the name the menu item displays is its label property, which you can set, but it's a string, and I believe the htmlText applies to textfields, right?

Re: Flash Air desktop application

Soon I will put it online for sale. How could I avoid illegal copy from spreading around?
I need a lot of info regading this.
Please help me with this issue.
Many thanks

Flash air desktop application

Hello there,
We developed an application.
The window of our application cannot be maximize after it is install on our desktop.
How could we get this fonctionnality?
Please help.
Many thanks

Are you saying that it is possible to get this fonctionality (maximise
without stretching) when using flash air desktop application?
Yes, you can maximize a window without distorting the contents. When using Flash, the stage scale mode defaults to one of the scaling modes. For your app it sounds like you should set the scale mode to the "noScale" option.
If yes, Do you recommend the utilization of aire for the distribution of our
application?
I don't know enough about your application to make any kind of recommendation, and anyway my opinion might be biased since I am an Adobe employee.
Also could you recommend us a way for limiting the illegal distribution?
I don't think there is a fool proof way to do it (in general DRM is a race between the publishers and the hackers). Adobe doean't provide any tools for this. Presumably, there are 3rd party tools for application DRM that you could use (but that's outside my area of expertise).
For a homegrown approach to the problem, you could require that users of your application create a user account on your web site and download a license file in order to run the application. This isn't perfect, because someone could hack your application to remove the check for the license, but it would prevent casual copying.

Convert Air Desktop Application to Android apk Please help!

I developed an Air Desktop Application by using Flash Builder 4, it's a pure ActionScript 3 application. I used a few PNG image files and mp3 audio files in the application. After I build it, I got the swf file, xml file and all the image mp3 files in the bin-debug folder. If I run the swf file with all other files (png and mp3 files) in the bin-debug folder, it works great. If I run the swf standalone, the application will miss the images and sounds.
Now I'm converting the swf to apk, and run it on android device, it will NOT show the images or Doesn't play the sounds. I was wondering if there is a way to merge the png and mp3 files into the swf when I build/compile it? Or is there some other way to convert to apk which includes all the image and audio files? Please help.

Please see adt -package command here
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WSfffb011ac560372f-5d0f4f25128cc9cd0cb-7ffb.html
in this example icons folder is packaged along with swf and app xml.
What you can do is that specify each of the mp3 and image files one by one separated by space at the place where icons is used in examples.
In this case you will find all mp3 and image files in same directory as your swf when you run on android.
Make sure you use app:// urls for accessing those files

AIR Desktop Application for Linux running HTML5 and JS

Hello all,
Can I build an application with Adobe AIR coding in JS + HTML5? Once it was indeed possible and there are even tutorials on this technique:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air_javascript.html
If it's still possible with AIR 3.8, how can I build an existing website into a desktop application that will run in debian Linux? I'm struggling to find a resource that teaches how to actually build the application with AIR SDK. I've found how to build an application written in AS3 but not HTML + JS.
Thanks

Thank you, kglad.

Error message while installing "FDM Web Application" on windows 64-bit

I am unable to install "FDM Web Application" on a 64-bit windows platform. I have an error message indicating that 64-bit components for HFM & EPMA cannot co-exist with 32-bit components for HSF/FDM. Is there a way to install it? From the packages I downloaded, I have installed EPMA 64-bit. So I presume I'll have to uninstall EPMA 64-bit and re-install EPMA 32-bit?
OS: Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64 Edition SP2
Oracle WebLogic 9.2 MP3 32-bit
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Andy

Hi,
What version are you trying to install, as the latest release 11.1.1.3 should now support it.
In the 11.1.1.3 Readme - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/readme/epm_1111300_readme.html
FDM now provides support for 32-bit binaries in a 64-bit environment. (though that was from version 11.1.1.1)
Though saying that FDM can only run in IIS32bit mode, if you have installed EPMA 64bit it will have set IIS to 64 bit, so uninstall 64bit and use 32bit.
FDM supports 64-bit servers running in 32-bit emulation mode only. Because IIS cannot run under 32-bit and 64-bit mode simultaneously on the same server, Financial Management and FDM Web components cannot be deployed on the same 64-bit server. All other components can be deployed together.
Cheers
John

Adobe AIR Desktop Application - HD Video Playback

Hello everyone,
I am new to the forums. Hope I am posting in the correct one.
I have been doing AS3 development for last 2 years. But recently I had to implement a HD Video playback in windows. I was happy to know that StageVideo helps in that case. So I started coding and created projector (not with Adobe AIR , but to play with Flash StandAlone player). Was working great , playing 3840*1080 video with ease, awesome performance. But the problem came when I had to switch to fullscreen in that program. We were using 2 Monitors with extended desktop to give 3840x1080 resolution. The Flash could switch only to one screen. I leanred a new thing , Flash just can not switch fullscreen on two screens, be it standalone/web.
Then I came across AIR , saw on some forums that with NativeWindow class you can pretty easily run a AIR app fullscreen on 2 different monitors. I thought awesome ! I installed Flash Develop and got started with AIR 3.7 SDK. when I ported my AS3 code for AIR app , came to know that the stageVideo does not work here (that was completely unexpected!). So Now I am confused which path to take as Flash can not go fullscreen on dual monitors, and AIR can not use stageVideo.
Any help will be appriciated. Thanks in advance.
Edit -
The StageVideo Class seems available , but it returns the stage.stageVideos.length as 0. Attached a StageVideoAvailabiliityEvent to stage but seems it never is available. Any other way to play HD Video ? Native flash.media.Video is not able to handle such big video.

Getting error message while trying to Develop Applications using Oracle ADF

I have just started learning Oracle ADF. I have installed Oracle ADF 11g (with Oracle 11g database) in my PC. I am an experienced Oracle Forms Developer. While trying to run the application after development in
Oracle ADF I get the following error message :
This Project has no default run target. Please choose the file you want to run. Default Run Target:
and then it gives you a browse option to select default run target file.
This message always come in any type of application I want to write in Oracle ADF. Can you please tell me what is the possible fix to this issue.
Installation of Oracle ADF did not show any error message. Oracle Middleware and webserver 11g has been installed before the installation of Oracle ADF 11g.
I will appreciate any feedback for this. Thank you.

Let me add some missing information.
Right clicking a page or java class and selecting run or debug is ONE way to start the application with the page selected or the class selected (if the class can be started).
Sometimes it's more desirable to always start the application using the same way (e.g. start page in a unbounded task flow) regardless where you are currently working on. So you don't need to find the page in the application navigator.
For this you can use the 'Run configurations'. These (as you can have more then one) can be used to tell the framework which page or class to start if you hit the run or debug toolbar button. You can edit or create run configurations by using the menu 'run->choose active configuration->manage run configuration' or you open the project properties of the viewcontroller project and select 'run/debug/profile'. Then you get the dialog to edit or create a run configuration.
Select default (this won is created for you by the framework) and click 'edit'. Then you see the launch settings. If you are using adf task flows you can e.g. select the adfc-config.xml file as 'default run target'. This allows you to select the page to start in the 'ADF Task FLow' sub node. If you now uncheck the 'attempt to run active file...' the framework always start the page you selected from the unbounded task flow.

ActionScript 3 Air Desktop Application Browse For Local Directory Popup

Hello all,
I am developing a desktop Air program that will include a browse button that allows the user to click, and once the user clicks the button, I am wanting a pop-up window to appear that allows the user to browse to a writable folder/directory on his computer. Once the user selects a folder in the window, I want to grab that directory location and store it. The storing part I know how to do, but how to create this pop-up window or dialog, I do not have a clue where to start.
What's the simplest way to go about this?
Edit:
I see I can use this example from this site, but I don't know where to grab the directory the user selected: actionscript 3 - How to create "Browse for folder" dialog in Adobe FLEX? - Stack Overflow
var f : File = new File;
f.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onFolderSelected);
f.browseForDirectory("Choose a directory");

This seems to be supported by AIR only.
What gives you the impression?
AIR-only functions are marked with a fancy AIR logo
(like the first one in this list: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/images/sprite-index.png )
and getData doesn`t have it, so it should work without problems in the "normal" Flash Player if you follow the recepy:
Note for Flash Player applications: In Flash Player 10, a paste operation from the clipboard first requires a user event (such as a keyboard shortcut for the Paste command or a mouse click on the Paste command in a context menu). Clipboard.getData() will return the contents of the clipboard only if the InteractiveObject has received and is acting on a paste event. Calling Clipboard.getData() under any other circumstances will be unsuccessful.

Error message while trying to install application on emulator

Hi,
I developed a midlet (called Testing.jad; it will connect to a servlet and display something on the mobile phone once launched) and I was trying to install it on the emulator.
But the installation failed and I got this error message:
Testing.jad cannot be installed because critical information between the website and the application file does not match.
I have no idea what has gone wrong. Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Sorry. There was an error in my previous post. The MIDlet is called Testing.java.
I found out the problem already : )
