JavaFX mobile (Android/iOS) update?

Hi all,
as I am quite desperately eager to start JavaFX mobile development,
I would like to ask, if somebody has any update on recent status and progress, if any.
I have found quite a lot of news titles like 'JavaFX for iOS/Android soon!' at the beginning of the year, but not any other update since.
According to Javaone 2013 Session Updates
there should have been some very interesting presentations at JavaOne 2013 last week:
JavaFX on Android: First Insight [BOF7791]
Build and Debug Your JavaFX Application for the iPad [BOF5517]
JDK 8 for Oracle ADF Mobile on iOS and Android Devices [CON3783]
Can anybody point me to some recent information?
Thank you

I am unaware of anybody submitting a commerical iOS app based on JavaFX to the Apple app store.
I don't think it's JavaFX, but BadLogic Games has a RoboVM based demo game on the Apple app store.  I tried it on an iPad 2 and was very surprised at how responsive it was.  I was expecting noticeable input lag, but there isn't any.

I know the politics of getting JavaFX on iOS, Android, and WinRT are complicated, but I'm still hoping Oracle changes their mind.  The idea of Microsoft, Google, and Apple controlling the mobile platforms top to bottom doesn't strike me as something that's going to be good for anyone (else).  I'm rather amazed at the faith everyone is putting the idea that Microsoft, Google, and Apple won't leverage IE, Chrome, and Safari to give their SaaS initiatives the advantage.
I'd rather hedge my bets with the JVM and Linux than trust 3 companies who have been making obvious moves to close up and control the computing industry.  Honestly, look at the setup.  They all have hardware branches now and they already control the OSs, the native runtimes, the browsers, and the primary distribution channels for their respective platforms.  Oracle should be worried about getting anything on those platforms 5 years from now.
IMO, they should be pushing ADF and JavaFX on mobile, not trying to choose one or the other.

  • JavaFX Android iOS - Thanks Oracle

    It seems that our voices were (JavaOne 2012: JavaFX on iOS, Android and Windows 8 Metro??? heard by Oracle.
    Take a look here: http://jaxenter.com/open-source-javafx-coming-to-ios-and-android-46214.html
    That's a really cool and game changer news. I can't wait for it, FX team! :D
    Does anyone know when we will actually be able to start experimenting on Android and iOS? The article says something, but it's not certain.

    Let's not get too carried away here, there's a long, long way to go yet...
    This announcement relates to a "prototype" developed by Oracle. This prototype is not the solution. It is a purely interpreted version of Java (and JavaFX) that neither runs at acceptable performance levels nor will be it be accepted by the Apple App Store for iOS.
    It includes code that covers many of the areas that need to be ported but what is lacking is a full AOT Java compiler that will be essential to getting JavaFX apps deployable to mobiles and tablets. An OS such as iOS (and WindowsRT) does not permit executable memory meaning that a JIT compiler will not work (hence the interpreted-only Java in the prototype). The only way to get Java/JavaFX on these platforms is to fully compile the Java source and while this prototype will greatly help in achieving this, it will be left to an enormous effort from the community to bring this technology to fruition.
    Oracle have not (and may never) commit to a GA release of JavaFX on mobiles and tablets. They are completely relying on the community to drive this port.
    It is up to Java and JavaFX developers outside of Oracle to pick up the ball and run with it from here. Only time will tell if there is either enough interest or expertise in the community to ever make this happen.

  • Duplicate session error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with CF10

    We're getting the "duplicate session" error using Flash Remoting from Air 3.4 Mobile Apps ( IOS and Android ) with Coldfusion 10 Standard.
    faultCode:Server.Processing.DuplicateSessionDetected faultString:'Detected duplicate HTTP-based FlexSessions,
    generally due to the remote host disabling session cookies.
    Session cookies must be enabled to manage the client connection correctly.' faultDetail:'null'
    Have read most of the docs about this error -all to do with LCDS
    Notes:
    Not using LCDS,
    No Remote Calls from loaded Sub-Apps,
    No Errors from the Flex Web App which is pretty  much identical and calls the same cfcs.
    The error does not happen all the time and is hard to reproduce - say 5% of app sessions at a guess.
    Could it be a two first time remote calls hitting the server together before a session is set up?
    Our remoteObjects are in two places 1) Main Application.mxml and within a class compiled into the main app - can't see how this would be an issue.
    I enabled session management for the CFCs in Application.cfc but still occurs. Is this neccessary - it's not in any docs?
    Could this be something to do with the app not being shut down - as is typical with mobile users? When they resume use after a day or two surely a new session will be created?
    Please advise thank you.

    For our profect I think this issue was caused as follows:
    Believing that remoting was full asynchronous we fired a 2 or 3 remote calls to the server at the same time ( within the same function ) - usually when the users goes to a new section of the app.
    This seemed to trigger the duplicate http session error since according to http://blogs.adobe.com/lin/2011/05/duplication-session-error.html  two remote calls arriving before a session is created will cause 2 sessions to be created.
    Our current solution ( too early to say it works ) is to daisy chain the multiple calls together .
    Also there seemed to be an issue where mobile apps that never quit ( thanks Apple! )  caused the error when activated after a few hours.
    I guess the session expires on the server and the error above occurs on activation.
    So the mobile apps now ping the server with a remote call when activated after sleeping for more than one hour.
    All duplicate http errors are silently caught and reported.
    Fingers crossed we won't get any more!

  • Illustrator app for mobile (Android and iOS)

    Would you like an Android (iOS) Illustartor App?
    I wish:
    That there was an Android (and iOS) app of illustrator so I could work on Layouts for Websites on the go, like while I'm riding the train for 1 hour to go to work.
    There is an app which I tried (Autodesk Sketch Pro) but it's no good enough it is focusing too much on freehand drawing and it's layer based. You can't move a shape itself, you have to move the whole layer.
    What I need:
    I need an app for my Android phone and tablet which enables me to make layouts of websites which after I will send to my designer and developer. The thing is, I need to send good layout sketches to my designer.  With that the whole process would be more efficient.
    I'm not a good at freehand drawing thats why I would like to work with all the standard vector shapes, snap to grid, different kinds of splines and the possibility to add open fonts.
    What Adobe (Illustrator) should do:
    I think the way you should do this mobile app is:
    1. Check Autodesk Sketch pro (what can you to better than them)
    2. Make a great vector app
    3. Include a function that is useful to a lot of people to get more potential customers. (include: a nice drawing function, the ability to make nice flowcharts and/or infographics)
    4. Sell it to a fair price 8-12$
    I hope I didn’t forget anything if I did please let me know in the comments below Thank you.

    Am still waiting. Anyone out there who got new info on this?
    I am also wondering if it will be part of the creative cloud I already pay for on a monthly basis.

  • JavaFX Android/ iOS ports, who is ready?

    http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2013-April/007227.html
    http://fxexperience.com/
    So we heard from Mr. Bair that we will be getting the ports this week. I am curious about the no VM part. Does that mean we have to code it in our IDE, then port it to android and test it that way, or make our own VM? :P
    I want to start making apps :).

    As they have said the source for Prism/Glass is out there(somewhere) but someone needs to port it. I'm only going by what I've been told, I'll try to find the link, I believe it's in fxExperience.com
    Maybe Mr. Bair will come post some further news.
    Tobi, I'm curious how you did the port with openJFX. Was there anything special needed? Also OpenJFX is tied with the OpeNJDK builds right?
    Also I don't know how hard it is for Apple to allow it, but I have heard there are FX apps in the APPLE STORE currently. That is most likely for Mac OS, and not IOS, but still.... A big step forward for Java who wasn't on Apple previously.
    Also the Java Dev team said that they have created code for both Android/IOS in the labs, and that was shown at the 2011 JavaOne I believe. So it's been available for quite some time over at Oracle, but when we get a Port IDK!!!
    I also heard there is a team of EX-Sun employees making a Java Port to Mobile, which I haven't heard anything about recently, nor do I remember the project name >(

  • Any issues with latest 2014 ios update & Straight Talk

    Hi, I've been with straight talk for about 2 weeks without any problem - switching --porting--pics.....all went well . Now my phone ( iPhone 3c) shows iOS update waiting..
    Due to all I have read here & there,I'm a bit uneasy to do the update. Has anyone had any issues with lates t2014 ios update using ST? Will it affect the working of the phone if I don't do update? Thanks for any input.

    Hi, Glad  that worked for you. I don't know why this is happening other than to offer an opinion. This hardware acceleration was causing an issue with the previous version of FP also. I think that this technology is ready but the websites are not, youtube included.
    The same thing happened with Flash Player for the mobile phones, Android in particular. Adobe was ready but had to wait on Google to catch up. So the users thot Adobe was at fault, but that wasn't the case. Google had to update and that was done with their 2.2 update. This is not an opinion however. I followed this because users were coming here asking why Flash Player wasn't available for their Android:-)
    Adobe/Microsoft/Mac/Linux are all involved and if one advances a particular technology that effects the others, then each one must make a change for that technology to work. At least that's how I see it.
    Thanks for marking your thread as answered

  • IPhone 3G - Next iOS Update ???

    Hello,
    Two questions...
    1. Anyone having any clue of Apple's next iOS update?
    2. If yes, does this update imply for iPhone 3G too?
    Thanks!

    How would someone from AT&T know when Apple is going to release a firmware upgrade? Did he also tell you when Android and Windows Mobile 7 were going to be upgraded? Sounds like he was just trying to get rid of you.

  • Create a Multiplayer game for Android/iOS using flash?

    Hi guys,
    We're creating a flash - turn based game for iphone and android using flash builider (flex) and actionscript 3. We've built the game and have a working Ai and are now trying to figure out how we can provide multiplayer support on iOS and Android.
    As far as Im aware there are the following options:
    - Serversocket (although apparently this doesnt work with mobiles.
    - p2p with native air plugin (although I understand that this requires a database as well as the build of a front end connect to players)
    - apparently there is a new way with html - whereby two players can exchange data over a website without the need for a server.
    - Third party package like appwarp?
    This is driving me crazy as I understand the principle - i.e. send data from one mobile to a database - database fires message to opposing player - updates state of game on both mobile and on the server.
    All we want is a turn based game that sends a simple string of code with the moves between two devices. Is there any way of doing this for mobile (Android and ios) using flash and actionscript 3, or flash builder - without using a database?
    Can anyone recommend a straight forward way to do this? 
    If not - Im actually thinking of taking the finished game to a company and asking them to host the servers and port the game to android and ios for a cut of the royalties. Any thoughts on this?
    Thanks for you help on advance,
    T.

    Hi Aaron,
    Thanks for you kind response.
    Do you know how to use air 3.8 to create multiplayer for iOS android? It's frustrating, it's a basic turn based game so all we really need is to send 1 line of code containing a move between two devices which then changes the graphics. I've done something like this before using a MySQL server.
    I have a MySQL service on my hosting package for my domain, not sure whether I could use this?
    As far as I'm aware theres now an option in HTML 5 to do thus kind of thing without a server and swap data directly through a web address.
    Do you know roughly how much a small server costs to run?
    We're basically trying to get this on ios, android and desktop mac and pc. We also want to launch it through steam nd allow people to play each other via the steam network. Do you know or know anyone that knows about this kind of stuff?
    Thanks again, for your email. Where are you based?
    Tom.

  • SDK support for BusinessObjects Mobile Android

    I have read a useful document for BusinessObjects Mobile IOS recently:What is new in BusinessObjects Mobile BI iOS SDK 5.0 – Part 1 of ASUG Webcast
    However, we can hardly find any SDK document for Android, so could anyone shed light on whether we have similar solution on Android? What if Android customer wish to customize their logo, icon, apps etc, how do we deal with it?
    Thanks a lot,

  • JavaFX Mobile refuses to run my apps

    I am currently trying to familiarize myself with the JavaFX platform, especially the mobile aspects. I am having trouble with the JavaFX Mobile runtime.
    I am unable to run any apps of my own. I am using the newest NetBeans environment to compile everything and create the jar/jad package. I am able to upload the package to my mobile device, install it without any error, and see it listed in the app list of the JavaFX launcher. However, when I attempt to launch my apps, it appears to be starting normally but nothing ever shows up except the "exit" menu item. I get no errors of any kind, just nada.
    Thinking that I was doing something wrong due to my inexperience with the new scripting language, I downloaded some apps from javafx.com and tried those. They don't work either. However, the four apps that come pre-installed with JavaFX mobile (calculator, tweeter, etc) all work fine. Things I compile with NetBeans work just fine in the emulator, but not on my device in real life.
    Can anyone let me know what is going on? Is there an error log somewhere that I can look at? Thanks for any help.
    Mobile Device: HTC Touch Pro 2

    I tested newly released "JavaFX Mobile 1.2 for Windows Mobile" from javafx.com on HTC Diamond together with NetBeans 6.8 with all necessary updates and everything works fine. I believe it should work also on your HTC Touch Pro 2. The problem might be caused by using JavaFX early access, please try with reference release (released last week).
    You can enable logging via Remote Registry Editor or whatever registry editor on windows mobile by setting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SUN\JVM\LoggingAllowed to value 3.

  • HELP! Iphoto acting funny after iOS update

    I recently did the new iOs update on my macbook pro and ever since then I am getting this message:
    The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.
    Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete.
    Does anyone know what to do here?
    I'm afraid if I uprage iPhoto i'm going to lose all my pictures that are already in there

    1 - IOS is NOT available for yoru MacBook Pro - IOS is only available for mobile devices
    2 - lets assume that you mean OS X - did you just upgrade to OS X 10.9.x - Mavericks?
    3 - If you did did you also upgrade iPhoto to iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x?
    4 - If you did then you have to let iphoto upgrade your iPhoto library if you want to use it
    5 - as to losing your photos - of course not - unless something goes wrong - which is why you must always backup prior to any upgrade or update
    6 - if you do not always have a good, current backup you are 100% guarenteed to lose everything including your photos sooner or later - bad things do happen and if you do not have a good current backup you will lose stuff when it does

  • Cant connect to wifi since ios update

    Once again following ios update I have lost the ability to connect to the internet via wifi!! i have tried every sort of restore going and is still not working, i am having to pay fpr mobile data in order to sue my ipad, how do i get this sorted and the cost of my data refunded , am seriously fed up with apple!!

    Does it close immediately when opening or only when attempting to upload the files?
    If the former, try downloading any new app (free or paid) from the app store.
    If the later, contact whomever provides support for QuickOffice.

  • Phone call function for Ipad mini & iOS update for Iphone 4

    Hi,
    Why isn't apple doing phone call on the Ipad Mini. I understand being exclusive but i've been an apple user for over 2 years now and i like using apple products. I've notice samsung has incorporated these features in their Galaxy Tab 2. By doing so, Apple is loosing it's edge against its competitor. Hope that these funtion will be incorporated in the next iOS update.
    On another note, why isn't siri included in the iOS 6.0.1 update for iphone 4. I'm not sure why android based phone could enjoy each of the new features that they release and apple can't do the same. I can understand from a business point of view but it will also affect customer's satisfaction. Appreciate if the team could consider giving the same treatment to all the apple products in terms of it's software updates and new features. 
    I'm not sure if the team is aware that apple products cost a BOMB in Malaysia. For an Iphone5 16GB, it's retail price is at RM 2,199.00 ( not inclusive of call & data plan ). Taking the cheapest call + data package from a telco provider could be as much as RM100/month ( RM1,200.00 per year ). The rational of changing an iphone is not appealing because of the huge cost. 
    As such, apprecaite that apple could at least extend all new features in it's iOS releases to all apple products.
    Thanks,

    Hi Andrey,
    I think I have figured it out. It has to do with my iCloud account. After a lot of reasearch I found a bunch of people with the same problem, and the fix for now is to COMPLETELY DELETE your iCloud account. Simply turning everything off does not work. I immediately did this on my wife and my phones and everything went back to normal.
    It appears to be a bug, because mine was only supposed to be updating my "notes" which shouldnt take 30 megs a day. Hope they fix it soon.

  • Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update.

    Cannot activate iMessage after iOS update. "Activation unsuccessful" I cannot activate it.

    Have you updated your iOS to 5.1? Just confirming as it says "iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1" in your thread.
    Double check if you have credit in your mobile in order to activate iMessage.
    Turn iMessage off and on again, than turn off your phone (long press display off and on button) and slide to turn off. Turn your phone back on, enter your "Apple I.D" in the iMessage window and wait till it verifies everything.
    Tell us if it solves the issue.
