Is PHPAMF adobe open source?

Hey;
I have been reading a lot lately on flash actionscript 3.0 but the one thing I can't find in any book is uploading files in flash via php or some other alternative. I googled flash and php and found this open source project called PHPAMF but I didn't find anything about it on Adobe's Website.  I would appreciate any advice on either downloading PHPAMF or if there is some already built-in function I can use that I've overlooked.

PHPAMF is not an Adobe product and for this you did not find anything here.
Amfphp can properly serialize and deserialize complex types. In addition to objects and arrays, it supports resources from database connections, which means you can simply return mysql_query from your remote method and amfphp will know what to do with it. If the platform supports it (currently, Flash Remoting only), it can handle circular references and typed objects. It also supports simple remote debugging. Finally, amfphp comes with a service browser which allows you to test your services before creating a frontend.

  • Adobe Open Source features in CS5

    Adobe announces the issue of CS5, so what innovations in Open Source Technics will be included there? I asked Google  for software consulting services http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&tbo=p&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aoffici al&tbs=blg%3A1&q=Adobe+Open+Source+Website+CS5&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= as the result I found that Web Premium CS5 also features support for the most popular open source content management. But what's about more advanced features? Who knows?

    Yes we use Suitcase Fusion.
    Prior to updaing to CS5 we had an older version of suitcase fusion 12.xxxx
    When we upgraded to CS5 we also upgraded to the current version of Suitcase Fusion 3 & updated it.
    No specific plugins come to mind.

  • How Open source Flex looks to a mid level developer

    Here is my response to a post Matt made on a blog:
    THe whole post:
    http://blog.simb.net/2009/01/19/take-flex-back-for-the-community/
    @Matt
    1st off thanks, now my input:
    The crux of your criticism seems to be that the process that we use for decision-making is closed its certainly not how we feel
    Unfortuntly, this seems like a case of bad commuication by Adobe and the Flex team. If notable community experts get the impression of closed doors, then *certainly* the rest of us get this impression as well.
    but there has been very little participation from the community so far
    Im a solid dev, and not an expert but I can contribute in things such as testing and low level optimization; But, the Adobe open source site is a galactic disaster and discourages me from getting invloved. It has so many webpages that just go around in circles - filled with text that is verbose, this frustrates me to a great deal. As opposed to somehting straight foreward like:
    http://framework.zend.com/download/latest
    or
    http://code.google.com/p/papervision3d/
    Everything is here and easily notable. I avoid the seamingly endless pages and confusion. If I want to get to the Flex dev mailing list I have to register, then choose the lists, add the lists to my account. go though my account prefs read some directions.. then set up some other preferences..jeeeezzzz. If I want to submit a feature request I am directed to create another login for some Bug and Issue management? HUH? I thought I was submitting a featue request.
    Right on papervisions google HOME page I see Getting started > Papervision3D Mailing List.
    Next when I finially do get to Flex SVN, this trunk. is nothing like I have seen.what IS all this stuff and where do I go to learn about it? There are countless subfolders filled with things I vaguely understand and if I want to learn what it is. where do I go? Is there even a src folder?
    Here is a classic example.
    Flex trunk Read Me:
    http://opensource.adobe.com/svn/opensource/flex/sdk/trunk/README.txt
    vs.
    Zend Trunk Read me:
    http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/trunk/README.txt
    *What* is the Flex team thinking with this?
    I just spent 5 minutes or so twirling through all these SVN directories and Adobes website and I am clueless. I feel like the project is unessarily complex and disorganized - even if it isnt. This just convinced me to delete my Flex sdk bookmark on my SVN client.
    Adobe just lost one potential contributor to Flex SDK.
    We have another idea that were bouncing around that I hope to share in a week or two but wont get into now.
    Saying stuff like this is what gives people the impression of closed. Why not post these ideas the Flex team has? Even if it is stupid or incomplete
    Thats the whole point.

    Wow, thanks for your response. This is great.<br /><br />I now understand that I had a combination of prejudice and ignorance  <br />when regarding Adobe Open Source.

  • A plea to Adobe: Make Homesite open source

    I know this won't go anywhere, but I need to ask anyway.
    Please please please, make Homesite open source.
    I have tried other editors over the years but I come back to
    HS every time. Macromedia ignored Homesite when they bought
    Allaire, now Adobe is ignoring it after buying Macromedia. Homesite
    is a wonderful code editor, but it needs some tender loving care
    after being ignored for years.
    Keep it commercial, it doesn't have to be free. But please,
    open up the source. Let the few of us that still use it make it
    better.
    Steve Nelson

    I just love seeing replies here!
    I finally broke down and got CS4  and included Dreamweaver based on user groups saying in code view it is *almost* like Homesite.
    argh... the ambiguity of *almost*...
    a horse is almost like a giraffe...
    I still have homesite installed... there is NOTHING like HOMESITE!
    Hand coders do not want all the bells and whistles of Dreamweaver!!!!!
    Hey maybe APPLE would buy it!
    I don't think it ever worked on MAC but maybe they could make a cross platform and make it run on both!
    OPENSOURCE would be really awesome though!
    Anybody know anyone at Cisco?  now that they have openoffice maybe they would like to fund Homesite!
    Homesite to me is the OpenOffice of the web dev world.
    OR maybe the folks that have CSE Validator...

  • Do I need to pay anything to Adobe if I inject java script using some open source library?

    Hello,
    I want to restrict PDF reader to achieve Digital Rights Management (DRM).
    Do I need to pay anything to Adobe if I inject java script to achieve so using some open source library?
    Basically I want my PDF documents to be restricted such that I can: 
    Limit printing
    Prevent screenshots
    Restrict access by license expiry date
    Restrict distribution of downloaded PDF (i.e. the document should run on specific machine only)
    Restrict copy and paste within PDF document
    I came across below links from which I suspect Adobe expects one to pay if he/she attempts to restrict reader functionality in some way?
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/reader/topic_drm.html
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/overview.html
    Am I correct in my assumption?

    I think it is a vain hope to imagine you could implement DRM via JavaScript. Remember it can be turned off.
    Printing is either enabled or disabled according to document security.
    Working with PDFs does not require permission from Adobe but
    * adding functionality to Adobe Reader definitely does; a DRM development license is a major investment.
    * if the file is Reader-enabled, all third party tools will disable that.

  • @Adobe, do you intend to contribute Flash Catalyst as Open Source Project ?

    Hello,
    in the recent Whitepaper* you write that you no longer develop Flash Catalyst.
    Wouldnt it be great if you make it open source (contribute to Apache as well?)
    or sell it to another developer so that it can be continued to be developed ?
    I think many people will totally agree with this and would be happy to continue using
    Flash Catalyst to visually built/prototype engaging GUI for the Apache Flex Framework.
    What do you think ?
    Best Regards
    Marc
    Flash Catalyst
    Flash Catalyst CS5.5 is the last release of Flash Catalyst.
    At this time, it will not be updated to work with Flex SDK 4.6 or any Apache Flex releases nor will it be included in future versions of the Adobe Creative Suite software offerings.
    *http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/whitepapers/roadmap.html

    Hi daslicht,
    im also very interrested to know the answer.
    But im afraid they wont because it uses code from other proprietary tools.
    And even if the community get flash catalyst source code, it will be useless (in a sens) mainly because the synergy with other Adobe Tools will not be maintained. And for me it was the main power of Flash Catalyst.
    And knowing that, i think it is more easy for Apache community to create a new tool from scratch not linked to Adobe's tooling chain.
    It could be a Flex app!!
    For you information, the design view from Flash Builder has also been discontinued by Adobe. But in that case its a flex app incorporated in Flash Builder so theres good chances that Adobe will donate it to Apache community.
    So why not use the design view as a base for a Flash Catalyst like tool? by making it a standalone tool or designers.

  • Why Adobe doesn't use the open source codec x264vfw for Elements as .AVI?

    Well we all know who wants to work with the x264vfw that it does not work in Premiere Elements.
    But i think Adobe could have make it work with the open source x264vfw or with the AVC-Intra coder.
    I am still asking me also why it would work when i do re-encode it with another program to h264 again but as MP4?
    Adobe does itself make it really easy and messing with us. because they are saying there is support for h264 but only for MP4 and another one...
    Why they don't add .AVI support that goes to the support of Adobe because i can't get into the livechat.... because its only under the week....
    This Codec the H264 X264 and AVC-1 are the most used codecs today in my opinion so i don't know why they don't sit their Dev's on that.
    ALSO that it does not work on their 600$ Application named Premiere Pro is something that i don't understand...
    For me its unbelievable if i am honest.
    I now want to know why adobe is such a service desert in this point.
    They all yelling about that but Adobe does nothing.
    If somebody knows a solution without re-encoding or FFMPEG solution, because it does not work well with my Variable Frame Rate in Premiere Elements let it me know.
    Also i want an Answer from Adobe why they don't do anything.
    I tried to put the x264vfw .dll into plugins or the folder but the problem is not solved.
    I am sitting for Quiet a time behind that and see how many threads there existing... and it's only frustrating.
    ADOBE it's time to do something!!!

    I still think that a lot of peoples have done that. When you see how many persons are suffering by this problem...
    Well i have not known about the Adobe Staff tags that they are not the real help from the real support.
    Thank you about that.
    Normally i would send a mail but there is no option for that... to they're support team.
    I said that it hard for me to get some support under the week. I have to work from 6am until 5pm with driving. and have to do some things a home.
    Feature Request/Bug Report Form i think will not help or have you used it and got an answer? I want an answer not only request something.
    " We normally do not send personal replies to feature requests or bug reports. We do, however, read each and every message. We use the information to improve our products and services. Your comments, suggestions, and ideas for improvements are very important to us. We appreciate you taking the time to send us this information. "
    And yes i buied last year Premiere Elements to Christmas time.
    I still don't understand why they didn't add support for H264, h264, X264, x264 and AVC-1 for .AVI wrapper when they have the licenses for the codec...
    Also .AVI is really often used... not like .MKV

  • Can we trust the Adobe's promise of making the Folio format Open Source by 2014.Q1?

    Hi!
    We have been following the Adobe Digital Publishing blogs and we got pretty excited about the posibility of having the Folio format as a Open Source standard, specially if this release comes with a .folio viewer we could use in mobile apps.
    There are a couple of links that claim that Adobe will release the Folio format really soon:

    The question is, can we trust the Adobe's promise and get more and more excited about this release? Is this for real?

  • Adobe Should Open Source Fireworks

    OK Adobe... do us all a favor and turn Fireworks into an open source project. Please don't take this valuable software away from us and let it degrade into a worthless mess. We still have uses for your other titles and would be happy to stay if Fireworks remains alive in one form or another, even if it no longer bears the Adobe name. It won't affect your bottom line to give it to the community, but letting it die will definitely sow negative seeds among the Fireworks faithful, so that if a viable alternative comes into play an exodus may ensue.

    If history teaches us one thing, it is that Adobe will not open source Fireworks. Recall Freehand? The Freehand community went as far as setting up a "Free Freehand" organization, and took legal action.
    They failed. Adobe did not release Freehand's source code into the public domain.
    And it will never happen with Fireworks either, because it would become too much of a competitor to Photoshop and Illustrator (and any other software they might have under wraps for now).
    Sad, but true.

  • Open Source equivalent to Adobe Illustrator?

    What is the best Open Source equivalent to Adobe Illustrator?
    (or closest equivalent)
    This may be a matter of personal preference but could anyone share their thoughts or opinions?
    Thank you,

    I took Inkscape for a test drive in order to compare it to Adobe Illustrator. Here are my comments I would like to share with this newsgroup. Generally and professionally, I prefer Adobe Illustrator over Inkscape because Illustrator is a more responsive program - faster during some key drawing procedures, however Inkscape should not be ignored as it is available for no cost and is very capable and sufficient as a drawing tool. I was impressed with Inkscape - except for its typesetting features, its lack of being able to use spot colours and its limited PDF export options.
    I hardly touched all the Inkscape features in this review - only a few main features which seemed to work sufficiently.
    This review is written for someone looking for a vector drawing program to learn and use who may not have a lot of experience with a professional drawings programs such as Adobe Illustrator and who may be looking for a no-cost alternative that is sufficiently acceptable.
    Inkscape 0.46
    www.inkscape.org
    Review by Mike
    platform: mac computer on OS 10.4
    March 2009
    Generally, a very capable and extremely useful program - especially considering there is no cost. Under the "Help" menu, is a link to the online manual which you can download too - but I just read that parts I needed online.
    I found the info I was looking for a few days ago when I first tried the program. Initially, I couldn't find a way to convert a point from a smooth point to a corner point. I found this feature in the menu bar. When you use the "edit path my node" tool (second tool in the tool box) you can make this choice (corner or smooth point) from a row of icons along the top of the document window - very obvious but I didn't see that at first. Its a good feature to know to manipulate your shapes to exactly as you would like. With this ability, you can choose to convert your point to a corner point or a smooth point - important to being able to draw any shape you like.
    You can also adjust the bezier curve angle on the fly (while you draw) (see last point [1] at the end of this review) by holding down the shift key or the control key but that would depend on how much users would want to practice this program. The main thing is, that it can be done - just like in Illustrator. Illustrator users would just have to remember a few different key stroke patterns while drawing.
    Doesn't seem to be much this program can't do, except for spot colour capability. Compared to Illustrator, I would be curious to know if there was anything critical you can do in Illustrator that you cannot do in Inkscape. Typesetting in Inkscape isn't so great but generally the program is sufficient.
    Here are four main points:
    1. Inkscape doesn't have spot colour capability
    This is probably the biggest disadvantage of Inkscape for professionals. For commercial artists, printing spot colour is a critical capability which enables such things as specifying a pantone colour to a printer. However, for web pages and CMYK artwork, Inkscape is sufficient because web page art is all RGB in colour (no spot colours are used in web page art).
    2. No PDF export options.
    Inkscape's PDF export features seem to be limited and do not give you many options such as compression options. That is probably the second most noted limitation of Inkscape for professional artists. There may be a work around however. If you export the drawing as postscript and open it in Adobe Acrobat Professional you could set these options here instead. But then you would need to buy Adobe Acrobat Professional - but which is a very useful program - one that is indispensable for managing pdf files quickly. "Web Capture" is one of my favourite features of Adobe Acrobat Professional - can save a website or a web page to pdf for archival purposes. Merging several PDF's into a single document is also a good feature of Adobe Acrobat Professional for general purpose file management.
    3. Inkscape is slower than Illustrator. Some Inkscape features are OK but others are slower.
    But that might not be a fair comparison because I am testing Inkscape on my ten-year-old 350 MHz Mac G3. But then again, I am also using Illustrator on this same G3 and Illustrator is very fast. I wonder how fast Inkscape would feel on a newer mac?
    Overall, these speed issues may not be relevant because for most projects and drawing tasks Inkscape is fast enough.
    The slowest feature of Inkscape I find is selecting a typeface if you are setting any type in your document. It takes too long to scroll down your selection of fonts. Could be my computer - or could be Inkscape ot something to do with the fact I have many fonts - but they are all managed by fontbook. I am not sure why selecting a type face seems to take so long to scroll through the list of fonts.
    4. Inkscape struggles with type setting.
    Typesetting in Inkscape is slow. The critical problem with Inkscape type is that the type in the final Inkscape document (which is natively in the .svg format) will not open in Illustrator. This is not good. I am not sure why and I may possibly be doing something wrong - but I tried this in many ways and there appears to be a problem with the way Inkscape saves type - maybe its just certain fonts (non-type-1?) - not sure. Any Inkscape documents will open in Illustrator but the type will appear in a large black box - major problem. Obviously there is a font translation problem with the way Inkscape saves blocks of type. The solution is to not expect type to work between these two programs (between Inkscape and Illustrator) - but often you don't need to transfer your files between Inkscape and Illustrator and so for these projects this may not be a problem. Another solution is at the final stage of your drawing in Inkscape, convert all the type (if there is any type)to paths ("convert to path" feature) - but this procedure is irreversible - so save a copy of your document first with the fonts not converted to outline. I am sure newer versions of Inkscape will correct this problem eventually. I think there is future hope for Inkscape on this issue.
    Here are some other general points I noticed about Inkscape:
    The pattern tool (good for wallpaper):
    For fun, I tried the pattern tool to try and design a wallpaper pattern. Its pretty cool. You can turn any objects you draw into a wallpaper pattern.
    Another way to do wallpaper is to just manually copy and paste in a repeated manner offset by the length of your object until you have enough copies to make a full piece of wallpaper - but that takes longer than simply using the pattern tool.
    However, the best tool for generating patterns for wallpaper is probably this tiling feature:
    tiling:
    http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Tiles.html
    I wouldn't bother reading the whole manual - just the parts you might need to reference while working on a project. The bezier curve section in the manual is good to read:
    bezier curves:
    http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Paths-Creating.html
    As mentioned on that page, paths can be created using three ways:
    1. the Freehand tool
    2. the Bezier
    3. the Calligraphy tool
    My favourite is the bezier tool. It offers precise control.
    The other tools are good too (and probably fun to use) but for precise drawing, I like the Bezier tool myself.
    Other users might prefer the other drawing tools (Freehand tool or Calligraphy tool) for faster stroke creation and faster line effects.
    Once you draw a shape and close it (click on the first endpoint when placing the last endpoint) (I always recommend closing a shape - but you don't have to) then you can colour the shape any colour you would like or with a shaded gradient or even make it transparent to any degree and overlay it on top of other shapes. Lots of control to do some pretty creative stuff.
    I would also recommend organizing your drawing into layers. If...(continued on next post...)

  • Flex is open source, what about adobe flash?

    Hi all,
    There is some confusion on our Flex team. We're aware of the
    Flex announcement that Adobe intends to release Flex under the MPL
    at some future date. Some of the developers on our team, however,
    believe the Adobe Flash plugin in browsers such as Mozilla are open
    source as well. After googling, I could not find any indication
    that adobe Flash is open source. We're aware of Gnash, etc, but our
    question relates specifically to Adobe Flash - is it open source or
    has there been an announcement that Adobe intends to open source
    Flash browser plugins? What, if anything, is open source concerning
    Flash?
    Thanks,
    iksrazal

    Flash will not be open source.

  • Adobe gives us a creative license... does that include making sites open source?

    Hi this question has bugging me. I know Adboe gives the enduser a creative license. I was wondering how far that license goes. If someone created a site in dreamweaver and maybe even used some flash for a opensource Website would that be violating the EULA? I know that the DW EULA says something about trade secrets they fail to explain what that means. I could use as much clarification as possible! Thanks.

    thanks lawrence I didn't see your message. I was reading the forum from my email and sometimes my spam program throws away mail I want to keep. Thank you for the basic answer. I do get the drift . I can now code without having that question lingering in the back of my mind.
    I apologize for the confusion. I used the wrong word. I Meant to say General
    Public License instead of open source. Kinda like www.wordpress.com except
    they code in C. I want to make a Website and have it licensed under the GPL
    but I will  use  dreamweaver and flash to write some of the code and some of
    it will be handcoded. Does that violate the EULA? I just don't want to break
    any rules or step on any toes if you know what I mean... I hope you do.

  • Adobe is simply a rip off and people should use open source programs

    Every time I go to use something you leaches are trying to suck more money from me.  I am moving everything to open source.  Screw you guys.

    Hi John,
    I'm so sorry to hear of your frustration. Is there something in particular I can assist you with?
    Please let me know.
    Looking foward to hearing back from you.
    Kind regards, Stacy

  • ActionScript 3 compiler, asc, is now open-source

    In the latest nightly build of the Flex SDK is the as3
    compiler code!
    The ActionScript 3 compiler, asc, is now open-source! Added
    the source code for Flex 3's asc.jar, at
    branches/3.0.x/modules/asc. This code came from
    ssh://asteam.macromedia.com/hg/asc-flex3 and is what built the
    asc.jar that shipped with SDK 3.0.0.477, plus open-source copyright
    changes. It requires Java 1.5 to build and is not integrated with
    the build scripts for branched/3.0.x; this branch continues to have
    a prebuilt asc.jar in 'lib'.

    PHPAMF is not an Adobe product and for this you did not find anything here.
    Amfphp can properly serialize and deserialize complex types. In addition to objects and arrays, it supports resources from database connections, which means you can simply return mysql_query from your remote method and amfphp will know what to do with it. If the platform supports it (currently, Flash Remoting only), it can handle circular references and typed objects. It also supports simple remote debugging. Finally, amfphp comes with a service browser which allows you to test your services before creating a frontend.
