IOS native extension for networkinfo throws an error

Hello,
I'm trying to check wether the active connection on a device is Wifi or mobile data connection. On android this works fine but on iOS there is a problem.
A native extension exists for this see here.
The problem is that the line below throws an error: 'Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.'
var interfaces:Vector.<com.adobe.nativeExtensions.Networkinfo.NetworkInterface> = com.adobe.nativeExtensions.Networkinfo.NetworkInfo.networkInfo.findInterfaces();
I'm using AIR3.1 (no idea if this works on 3.0).
Anybody a solution?

Ever solve this? I'm also getting errors...
Specifically:
ArgumentError: Error #3500: The extension context does not have a method with the name getInterfaces.

Native Extension for AIR publishing error : framework not found

Hello,
I'm trying to build an iOS app using native extensions for AIR, but when I publish, I've an error message saying : framework not found
I tried with this ANE for GameCenter integration : https://github.com/StickSports/ANE-Game-Center
it says " ld: framework not found GameKit "
Same problem with GREE Platform SDK for AIR :
https://docs.developer.gree.net/en/globaltechnicalspecs/#sdkforair
it says " ld: framework not found CoreTelephony "
The thing is that these frameworks are already included, I guess.
I'm using flash cs6 on mac, and I've included the path to iOS SDK in the publishing settings.

Are you using the ANE from there or are you recompiling the ANE at your end?
If you are recompiling, please make sure that you are using the platform.xml file they have provided.
If you are using their precompiled ANEs, probably, the path to iOS SDK is not correct. It should be upto the folder iPhoneOSx.y.sdk.

Please post your valuable comments.Eagerly waiting for reply.

Any good Native extensions for iOS yet?

Hi,
I wonder if there are any usable native extensions around yet for iOS features?
I have only found these: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/native-extensions-for-air.html which seems to be mostly tech-demos (battery, network info etc). I thought at least in-app-purchases, Game Center support, iAds, alertbox etc should have been released by now?
Since I have no knowledge in objective-c I can't do it myself, but I would gladly pay for ANE-files that are usable in real projects.

version for iphone and ipad https://github.com/lilili87222/admob-for-flash
this is a actionscript native extension for developer to ad advertisement to their air mobile application run on iphone or android.it very easy to use
admob for flash android this lib enable you to add admob ad to your flash air application to add native advertisement to your actionscript3 application you just need to do four step
1.replace D:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\sdks\4.6.1\lib\android\lib\resources\android-res.jar with android-res.jar
2. add this config to -app.xml
<android>
<manifestadditions><![CDATA[

3.add this config to -app.xml
<extensions>
<extensionid>so.cuo.ane.Admob</extensionid>
</extensions>
4. add code to your android air application like follow
test1(); private function test1():void { var admob:Admob=Admob.getInstance(); if(admob.isSupported){ admob.setUnitId(gid); admob.dispatcher.addEventListener(AdEvent?.onReceiveAd,this.adHandler); admob.dispatcher.addEventListener(AdEvent?.onFailedToReceiveAd,this.adHandler);
// admob.showRelation(AdMobAlignment?.ALIGN_BOTTOM,AdType?.BANNER);
admob.show(50,100,AdType?.BANNER);
}else{ trace("not support"); }

Air Native Extension for OS X. Cant call functions from native code.

Hi, I am trying to build native extension for OS X.
After creating context, I try to call native function with "call" method, but always I have an error "The extension context does not have a method with the name ..."
In as3 code my ExtensionContext is not null, so it's okay. And in native objective-c code I have a function, which I call in as3 code.
What should I do?
Here my code.

And this script Im using for build ANE:
    mv ../as3/bin/MyANE.swc .
    unzip MyANE.swc
    mv library.swf mac/
    rm catalog.xml
    rsync -a ../Obective-C/ANE/Build/Products/Debug/ANE.framework/ mac/ANE.framework/
    adt -package -target ane MyANE.ane extension.xml -swc MyANE.swc -platform MacOS-x86 -C mac .
    mv MyANE.ane ~/Work/_Projects/test/libs-ane/

I haven't done Objective C in a long time, but if I'm not mistaken, it requires the semicolon to terminate a line of code. The line containing "func[1].function = &someFunction" does not have that termination and since that is the function you are trying to execute, maybe that is the source of the error.

First of all, thank you for creating this extension. However, it doesn't seem to work. Below is my code for decompressing ByteArray (error handling is stripped for simplicity):
                    public function decompress(aData:ByteArray):ByteArray {
                              // Save data to file
                              var fileInput:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("input.7z");
                              var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
                              stream.open(fileInput, FileMode.WRITE);
                              stream.writeBytes(aData);
                              stream.close();
                              var folderOutput:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("output");
                              ANE7z.decompress(fileInput, folderOutput);
                              var files:Array = folderOutput.getDirectoryListing();
                              for each (var fileOutput:File in files) {
                                        trace("Extracted file: " + fileOutput.nativePath);
                                        if (!fileOutput.isDirectory) {
                                                  var bytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
                                                  stream = new FileStream();
                                                  stream.open(fileOutput, FileMode.READ);
                                                  stream.readBytes(bytes);
                                                  stream.close();
                                                  bytes.position = 0;
                                                  return bytes;
                              return null;
The problem is folderOutput.getDirectoryListing() always returns an empty array.

IOS Native Extension with external Framework

Hi there,
I am developing a native extension for iOS based CityGrid framework. I compiled .a file and packaged it to ANE file. However when I am trying to compile the app, compiler shows me the error:
Error occurred while packaging the application:
Undefined symbols:
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_CityGrid", referenced from:
      __objc_classrefs__DATA@0 in libcom.example.SomeAPI.a(SomeAPI.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found
Compilation failed while executing : ld64
I tried few options in XCode. However I still have the error.
Is anybody tried to do a native extension with external frameworks?

How did you compile your ane file? I met same issue before.
adt -package -target ane myextension.ane extension.xml -swc mySwc.swc -platform iPhone-ARM library.swf libmylib.a -platformoptions myplatformoptions.xml
lnside myplatformoptions.xml, I linked all the framework and shared libraries, as following
<platform xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/extension/3.1">
     <sdkVersion>5.1</sdkVersion>
     <linkerOptions>
          
          <option>-framework CoreMotion<option>
          
          <option>-liconv</option>
     </linkerOptions>
</platform>
Please let me know, if it does work.

Dear Adobe Team,
We have recently purchased Adobe Air native extension for admob for android & ios
but every time we upload our app to an ipad or iphone, the app crashes.
We have carefully followed your instructions, and we're sure we've not made a mistake writing the action script 3 code.
We need your help in solving this problem urgently, as we are now running behind schedule in uploading our app.
Thanks very much,
Amir Steklov and Dorit Leshnick

Before I was also searched a lot to find good add network and also Admob.
Finally we done successfull integration using.. working fine in all IOS devices. not yet released to Apple app store
http://code.google.com/p/flash-air-admob-ane-for-ios/source/browse/trunk/admobaneiphone/sr c/admobtest.as?r=2
You can check our add setups using Air ANE's for our android game ExpressTrain.

Developing and using Adobe AIR native extensions for Android devices

I was using this tutorial:
"Developing and using Adobe AIR native extensions for Android devices"
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/ane-android-devices.html
When packing the Flex mobile ANESampleTest to deploy on an Android device, the below error happens

Does anyone know what the issue might be?

Did you find a workaround for the Error? I'm getting the same and I can't seem to find any solution.

Native extension for Game Center

Hi guys,
As I understand it with the latest Air Beta it's possible to implement native extensions for iOS, and in theory that would make it possible to connect to both Game Center and in-app purchases.
Has anyone here tested this? It would be nice to know if there are any show stoppers before I start "digging"...
Cheers,
/Andreas

I just finished an extension for AIR that adds Game Center (commercial.) I'm going to be doing Multiplayer next. I'm pretty sure there's an in app purchase one out there, I'm looking for it now, I'll post if i find it.

External library inside Air native extension for android

Hello everyone,
First, I've been looking throught this topics
- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7732742/air-3-native-extensions-for-android-can-i-how-t o-include-3rd-party-libraries
- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24626380/how-to-include-additional-jar-in-android-nativ e-extension-for-adobe-air-mobile
I got a similar problem. But not exactly the same. And the solution didn't worked for me :(.
First of all, I don't have any visible error.
-I can easily talk between java and action script.
-The gateway is set without problems.
My problem comes when, from my java-side-part of the extension, I try to call a 3rd party library. This library is (and I think this is where I do something wrong) linked to my project as an external lib, in .jar format.
So when I make a call to 3rd party library, it just doesn't print anything. Neither on the adobe part or on the java part. The logs that are before my call are printed but not the ones after.
I tried different solutions that are:
-Taking all compiled class files of my external lib and add it inside the main native extension jar [link1]
same result (no errors)
-including the 3rd party jar inside the ANE by adding a dependence file that require the .jar [link2]
with this method i got this error that I don't get
> aapt tool failed:ERROR: input directory '--auto-add-overlay' does not exist
My third party library also include's itself some external .jars so do I need to include every jars inside the same packaged jar?
I can see that a lot of people are dealing with issues like that so my question would be:
What is the best way to include 3rd party library inside android AIR Native Extension ?.
For information, here is what I do to create the ANE
>adt -package -target ane AirInfinitGameANE\AirInfinitGame.ane AirInfinitGameASLib\src\extension.xml -swc AirInfinitGameANE\AirInfinitGameASLib.swc -platform Android-ARM -C AirInfinitGameLib .
- AirInfinitGameASLib: just the folder with the actionScript part and the config xml file
- AirInfinitGameANE: folder in the one that will be the native extension
- AirInfinitGameLib: the eclipse java project. I need to put in that folder the airInfinitgamelib.jar(extension jar) and the library.swf (from the swc file) in order to beeing able to compile the ANE.
Here it is ! Thanks a lot for thoses who'll read me.

I had the same problem recently and fixed it as follows;
- Extract the 3rd party jar file and copy the class folder (usually named "com" in the root of the jar) to my project.
- Under Project Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries click "Add class folder" and add the "com" folder you just extracted from your .jar.
Hope this helps

Сertificate exception when building iOS native extension

In App Purchase Native Extension for Android

Hi All
I was wondering whether anyone has done any work on an In App Purchase native extension for Android? If one does not already exist I am going to be starting work on one shortly.
I did a google search and found this stackoverflow post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8053049/air-native-extensions-for-android-in-app-billin g . The poster is having difficulty with the call back from the Android market. One of the responses mentions that 'Native extensions have an issue with java libraries' . Has anyone else come across this issue and if so how did you fix it?
thanks for any help you can provide!
Mark

I have just finished a (commercial) extension that lets you directly do in-app purchases on android from Actionscript 3. You can check it out here.

    ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture armv7
    Compilation failed while executing : ld64
and this is the platformoptions.xml I use to compile the ANE:
    <platform xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/extension/4.0">
        <sdkVersion>8.0</sdkVersion>
        <linkerOptions>
       <option>-framework opencv2</option>
       <option>-framework UIKit</option>
       <option>-framework Foundation</option>
       <option>-framework CoreGraphics</option>
       <option>-framework Accelerate</option>
       <option>-framework AssetsLibrary</option>
       <option>-framework AVFoundation</option>
       <option>-framework CoreImage</option>
       <option>-framework CoreMedia</option>
       <option>-framework CoreVideo</option>
       <option>-framework QuartzCore</option>
    </linkerOptions>
    </platform>
Any idea?

Problem solved. I've added this line
<option>-lc++</option>
to the platformOptions.xml.
Now OpenCV works great in my actionscript native extension.
