Is Adobe Connect Mobile built on Adobe Air?

I want to know is adobe connect application built on adob air platform?
Are there any native extions used if it is built on air?

I believe it doe run on AIR.
What do you mean by native extensions? Do you mean objects you can load in the Share pod and have it work in the mobile app?
I know that you can load PPT(X), FLV, JPG, PNG, and MP3 file and they should display properly in the mobile app. MP4, F4V, and PDF may also work, but I'm not 100% sure on those.
I do know that SWF content does not currently work in the mobile app.

Connecting between two Adobe air mobile applications (On Android)

Hi There,
Does an Adobe AIR application can connect and pass parameters somehow (Directly or by http) with another android application?
Can Adobe AIR mobile application open a listening socket?

Um, I'm pretty sure this is wrong. You cannot use SocketServer on a mobile app platform for some stupid reason.
From the doc
"AIR profile support: This feature is supported on all desktop operating systems, but is not supported on mobile devices or AIR for TV devices"

Excessive connection latency... Does Adobe Air support connection pooling on mobile?

Hello,
I am developing a mobile app which loads thumbnail images from a remote server. During testing on the Android platform, however, I have discovered that images are very slow to load. By monitoring server logs I have determined that the poor performance is caused by the lack of connection pooling, meaning that each request builds a new connection. Running the sample code below on a mobile device produces 20 requests and 20 connection attempts. By comparison, the same web or desktop app creates 2 connections and reuses those connections for subsequent requests. The substantial overhead and latency associated with generating new connections has a substantial affect on performance, with 20 thumbnails taking approximately 4-5 seconds to load on mobile versus 0.5 - 1 second on a desktop.
I have included a sample app below to emphasis the performance issue. The image itself is very small (290 bytes) to focus the issue on connection latency. I have confirmed this behavior on numerous Android devices, running 4.1, 4.0, and 2.3. I have also attempted using Loader v. URLLoader v. URLStream and sequential v. simultaneous loading with no change in connection behavior. Attempting to set the connection to 'keep-alive' in the URLRequest also has no affect.

                                        loader = this.addChild(new Loader()) as Loader;
                                        loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, complete);
                                        loader.load(new URLRequest(url));
                    private function complete(event:Event):void
                              _count++
                              trace("Finished " + _count + " at " + getTimer() + " ms");
So, I have a couple questions:
1) Is there something that I can do to enable connection reuse?
2) Is this an inherent limitation with Adobe Air for mobile?
3) Can someone confirm whether this limitation exists on other mobile platforms (iOS or Blackberry)?
Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I am really hoping that this isn't a fundamental limitation of Adobe Air as it causes my app to feel very sluggish.
Thanks,
Adam

Hmm. You were absolutely correct, that's a bit disappointing!

Both are on release compile, which should take out all of the variability. So, yes, it looks as if the 3.4 AIR runtime has lost the connection pooling but ONLY for Android.

Adobe AIR HTTP Connection Limit

Hello,
I'm working on an Adobe AIR 2.7 application which can upload files to a web server, which is running Apache and PHP. Several files can be uploaded at the same time and the application also calls the web server for various API requests.
The problem I'm having is that if I start two file uploads, while they are in progress any other HTTP requests will time out, which is causing a problem for the application and from a user point of view.
Are Adobe AIR applications limited to 2 HTTP connections, or is something else probably the issue? From searching about this issue I've not found much.
The file uploads are performed by calling the File classes upload method, and the API calls are done using the HTTPService class. The development web server I am using is a WAMP server, however when the application is released it will be talking to a LAMP server.
Thanks,
Grant
Here is the code I'm using to upload the file:
protected function btnAddFile_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
    // Create a new File object and display the browse file dialog
    var uploadFile:File = new File();
    uploadFile.browseForOpen("Select File to Upload");
    uploadFile.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, uploadFile_SelectedHandler);
private function uploadFile_SelectedHandler(event:Event):void
    // Get the File object which was used to select the file
    var uploadFile:File = event.target as File;
    uploadFile.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, file_progressHandler);
    uploadFile.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, file_ioErrorHandler);
    uploadFile.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, file_completeHandler);
    // Create the request URL based on the download URL
    var requestURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(AppEnvironment.instance.serverHostname + "upload.php");
    requestURL.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
    // Set the post parameters
    var params:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
    params.name = "filename.ext";
    requestURL.data = params;
    // Start uploading the file to the server
    uploadFile.upload(requestURL, "file");
Here is the code for the API calls:
private function sendHTTPPost(apiFile:String, postParams:Object, resultCallback:Function, initialCallerResultCallback:Function):void
    var httpService:mx.rpc.http.HTTPService = new mx.rpc.http.HTTPService();
    httpService.url = AppEnvironment.instance.serverHostname + apiFile;
    httpService.method = "POST";
    httpService.requestTimeout = 10;
    httpService.resultFormat = HTTPService.RESULT_FORMAT_TEXT;
    httpService.addEventListener("result", resultCallback);
    httpService.addEventListener("fault", httpFault);
    var token:AsyncToken = httpService.send(postParams);
    // Add the initial caller's result callback function to the token
    token.initialCallerResultCallback = initialCallerResultCallback;

Did this occur on the desktop or mobile device? Finally, once the bug has been added would you mind posting back with the URL so that others affected can add their votes and comments? Thanks!

Scrim / Spinner For Adobe Air Mobile Apps?

I'm in the process of learning Adobe Air for mobile devices. I'm using Flash Builder Burrito. I didn't have any previous experience with Flash Builder or ActionScript, but I'm finding it very easy to use (I do have 11 years of programming experience). I'm stumped on something that's usually built into most other mobile platforms -> How do you create a scrim & spinner??? For those who may be wondering what I'm referring to, it's when your screen is dimmed and a revolving or spinning icon is displayed to show that your app is busy.
I tried the following...
1) Create a group that covers the entire view
2) Change the background color of the group to black and alpha to .5
2) Add a spinner image to the group
3) Set the "enable" property of the group to true/false depending on if I wanted it displayed or not
This didn't work at all. Any suggestions would be great!!!

I ALMOST have it working thanks to this great post by Andrew trice. I have two minor issues...
The animated gif won't play. I realize animated gifs probably aren't the way to go in FLASH builder, but it was worth a try. How do I recreate the spinner effect???
The scrim doesn't cover the navigation panel. Again, any ideas?

Adobe Connect Mobile issues on Motorola RAZR

While trying your Adobe® Connect™ Mobile application (version 1.7.5) on one of our latest Android-powered handsets--the Motorola RAZR (XT910)--we encountered a couple of issues that we thought you should know about. The text on the "whiteboard" will appear distorted when sharing between a PC and the handset, making it difficult to read.
Steps to reproduce:
Launch the application client on both a PC and the device
Login with a username and password on the PC and as a guest on the device
Select "Collaboration" on the PC client
Select the "T" on the whiteboard for text
Select anywhere on the whiteboard and begin typing a note. Notice that when it shows up on the device the font can be difficult to read.
We hope that this feedback is useful to you in making your application the best it can be on the widest possible range of Android devices. Device specifications for the Motorola RAZR device can be found at http://developer.motorola.com/products/razr-xt910. Also note that you can get early and exclusive access to everything you need to create apps for Motorola's newest devices by joining our App Accelerator Program (AAP).
If you have any follow-up questions or observations, please post them to our community discussion boards at http://community.developer.motorola.com/mtrl/.

It appears that Adobe Air does not support persistent HTTP connections?

As far as we can tell, Adobe Air does not support persistent HTTP connections via KEEPALIVE
Thus a new connection has to be established to the server, making certain types of network intensive applications slow.
Can anyone confirm if this is correct - is there any way to get Adobe Air to support KEEPALIVE and maintain persistent server connections?

Adobe Air vs HTML5 vs Native in Mobile Development

Just now, I read an article "HTML5 vs. Native: What`s a Mobile Developer to Do?" (http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Application-Development/HTML5-vs-Native-Whats-a-Mobile-Developer- to-Do-648997/), and this make me think of Adobe AIR.
For those of you who have used Adobe AIR to develop mobile apps, how do you think about it's performance, features/functionality (API), and stability as compare with HTM5 done with phonegap?
Please share your experience and opinion here. Thanks.

If you are producing software how do you detect the Firefox version and show whether or not it is compatible ? You may be interested in http://hacks.mozilla.org/2012/01/firefox-goes-2-digit-time-to-check-your-ua-sniffing-scripts/
If you are, or your clients are in a corporate environment there is a possibility that Firefox ESR will be in use.
* https://wiki.mozilla.org/Enterprise#How_to_Participate_and_Post
* http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
My understanding is that ESR has been brought out primarily to deal with this sort of problem ensuring software may be certified in an enterprise, and does not change as often (so it will remain as Firefox 10 with point releases for a while).

Adobe Air Mobile User Agent Issue.

Hi,
We are working on the adobe air applications to handle multiple instance of mobile user agents. While doing so we observed that when a user agent
belonging to android/ios/windows/ mobiles web page objects/ui for mobile website is not loading as it was expected. To be precize some of the ui components
location is getting distorted. Please let me know the possible solution/fix for the same. Looking forward to hear on this soon.
PS: Same user agent when loading on firefox user agent addon, mobile web site opens properly without any issue.

DOES THIS MEAN YOU ALREADY ABLE TO USE A CUSTOM USER AGENT FOR AIR PROJECT ??
CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW TO ADD CUSTOM USER AGENT ?

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.

Recording control with the Adobe Connect mobile ap

In the Adobe Connect mobile ap, I do not see that it allows you to start (and end) the meeting recording? This is one critical hosting feature that I do not see supported. Am I missing it?

More host functions are expected to to be available in future releases of the Connect Mobile app. As of now, I don't believe there is the ability to start/stop recordings in the mobile app.
