Opening an AIR App from another AIR App

Hello Experts,
I want to make an AIR application from which I can execute
other AIR Application. Does any one have any idea how it can be
done?

It cannot be done. If you browse the archive you will find
plenty of relevant "discussions".

  • Why can't i download a free app from another countries app store?

    I have an account with App store UAE and need to download the HBR app which is free but when i access the USA store it says my credit card is not applicable tothis store

    Largely due to licensing agreements, you can only buy from the iTunes Store in the country in which you reside.  To prove you reside there, Apple will only take credit cards issued from and billed to that country / address. 
    The developer may not have given permission for that particular app to be sold in your country by Apple.   They may have alternate agreements.

  • Is there a way to open the settings app from an air app on both iOS and android?

    Since you can't change the notifications settings within the app, is there a way to simply open the settings app from an air app? like a link or something like that?

    Even on iOS this has only recently been added by Apple for iOS 8 only using the line:
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString]];
    So you would have to wrap this in an ANE and then again, only for iOS and only call it in iOS 8+

  • Launching an AIR app from another (when offline)?

    I have a pair of AIR applications that are meant to work
    together as part of an application suite. One feature is that a
    user should be able to click a button in APP_1 and launch APP_2 (if
    installed). To do this I created a "LaunchButton.swf" that loads
    "air.swf". This works GREAT when the user is online and "air.swf"
    is able to be loaded from "
    http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/browserapi/air.swf".
    I tried to copy "air.swf" locally and use that instance but I am
    guessing that it doesn't work due to security restrictions.
    If there are any AIR engineers reading this (Oliver?) please
    let me know if there is a solution to "Launching an AIR app from
    another (when offline)?"
    Thanks!

    I think theoretically it shouldn't work, and doesn't by the
    response you give. Remember a functional work around isn't always a
    fix. What you've essentially done is loaded the air.swf into a
    sandbox bridge, bridging it between a web sandbox and an
    application sandbox, therefore you're able to call its methods
    without security errors. However, if the air.swf loads in another
    swf, maybe a helper swf, you won't be able to access any methods in
    that swf, neither will the air.swf. To my understanding, it's not
    grandfathered into the sandbox bridge, but retains its web sandbox.
    Before going crazy about the bad news I may have just given,
    wait until Ted returns to give you a response. I could be way off
    par here :) Good luck!

  • Launching another iOS AIR app from iOS AIR App

    Hi
    Ideally we would like to be able to launch another AIR iOS from our AIR iOS.  Is it possible to do this with AIR?  I understand you can do it natively.  We would also need to pass a few parameters: such as authentication ID and a URL.
    Potentially we need to be able to do this in Android too.
    Thanks
    Ben

    Yes. you can have following chunk in your infoAdditions
    <key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
       <array>
        <dict>
         <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
         <array>
          <string>appA</string>
         </array>
        </dict>
       </array>
    then from another AIR iOS application you can call navigateToURL("appA://thisDataWillBeReceivedByAppA")
    I have written an Article which lets AIR iOS applications implement Facebook Single Sign-On It uses the same techniques. You can follow http://www.saumitrabhave.com/2011/10/facebook-single-sign-on-for-air-ios.html for more details.

  • Can you launch an android app from an android app built with air?

    Hi I might a have project coming up soon where one of the requirements is that the android air application can launch another application on the device...
    In pure java this would look something like this....
    Intent LaunchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.rpg.rbar");
    startActivity(LaunchIntent);
    Does anyone no if I can perform a similar method using as3
    Thanks
      Aidan

    Try the below.  Found this at the below link. 
    http://www.blogbyben.com/2013/04/launching-android-app-from-adobe-air-app.html
    var url:String = ("intent:#Intent;" + "action=android.intent.action.MAIN;" + "category=android.intent.category.LAUNCHER;" + "component=com.android.settings/.Settings;" + "end");  navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url));
    Question I have is, is there any way to get a list of currently installed apps?

  • Launch one CS app from another

    Hi all,
    Newbie alert - sorry!
    I am currently stuck on something that seems simple, but I cannot get it to work - it's about coordinating between multiple CS apps.
    I want to cause one Creative Suite app (e.g. Photoshop) open a certain document (say a JPEG file) while running a CS Extension running in another Creative Suite app (e.g. Illustrator).
    I first naively assumed I could just use the app property of the Photoshop class (i.e. 'com.adobe.csawlib.photoshop.Photoshop.app') from an extension hosted by Illustrator, but I am not having much luck. One possible cause is that Photoshop is not necessarily running. When I try to refer to Photoshop.app while 'inside' an Illustrator extension, I do get an object back, but it's full of nulls and empty member variables - it's not properly instantiated, and as soon as I try to refer to something 'in' it (e.g. Photoshop.app.open(...)), a null exception is being thrown.
    I've tried pre-launching Photoshop manually, but that does not seem to help, and any which way, I want to automatically launch Photoshop if it has not been launched yet.
    The next thing I tried was to use an embedded ExtendScript - when one is using ExtendScript, it's fairly simple to talk to other apps in the Creative Suite. There are objects called 'photoshop', 'illustrator' and so on, and there is BridgeTalk.
    But when I call my ExtendScript from within ActionScript using the HostObject, it looks like I am missing all of the normal 'infrastructure' I've grown to expect when running ExtendScript. I suspect it's because I am in a separate engine that does not have the stuff I want to access.
    Then I tried to force things - I noticed the sample code that runs an ExtendScript in ActionScript has a phrase:
    var myBridgeScript : HostObject = HostObject.getRoot(HostObject.extensions[0]);
    and HostObject.extensions[0] is something like 'com.adobe.illustrator'. So I tried other strings here (e.g. running inside Illustrator, I tried 'com.adobe.photoshop') - no luck. Got a null in myBridgeScript.
    I looked at the CSXSEvents - but as far as I understand those would only help me when Photoshop is already running - Bob Stucky's cookbook article
    http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Inter_Application_Communication_with_the_Creative-18456.ht ml
    ends with: 'Possible extensions would be to launch Photoshop, if necessary, using Air's NativeProcess'. That sounds like bad news, and seems to indicate I'd have to go search for the Photoshop app path the hard way (keeping in mind that some people install their Creative Suite in odd places, so it's not always in '/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CSsomething' or 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CSsomething').
    Now, I can go do this the complicated way (calling down to the underlying operating system, try to find the correct Photoshop app (there might be more than one), and launch the document through the OS) - but I was really expecting there would be a simple magical trick to do it in a much more direct manner - it's clear the Creative Suite apps know about each other, so I was hoping to find a way to rely on their internal smarts to launch documents from one CS app into another CS app.
    Any ideas?

    Any ideas?
    Hi Kris!
    Yeah. Wait for Vulcan in CS Next... (sorry I couldn't resist...)
    I first naively assumed I could just use the app property of the Photoshop class (i.e. 'com.adobe.csawlib.photoshop.Photoshop.app') from an extension hosted by Illustrator, but I am not having much luck...
    I'd expect that. The CSAW libs are basically all smoke and mirrors. If you can't do it using ExtendScript, you can't do it in ActionScript. One app does not know another app's DOM...
    The way I'd handle it would probably be using Bridgetalk on the ExtendScript side of things with a (double) callback going back to the ActionScript side of things once the Bridgetalk returns its results to the ExtendScript layer.
    We should probably get together to solve this problem for the long-term...

  • Hello i want to get an app from another store

    hello i want to get an app from another store , i am from india so use indian app store but i want to get textplus which is not available on indian store it is available on us store and text plus is a free app
    so i was thinking that can i make a fake id or something like to get an app from itunes using that fake id and then  installed it in  my ipod touch??
    and is it legal ? i dont want to do anything stupid with my ipod
    so pls reply and thankyou..

    if you have access to another apple id that has been created in that country you can do this, for example I travel frequently between two countries, I have a billing address in both, I create 2 apple id, one for each country.
    I can purchase from either store as long as I am logged into the corresponding ID for that country. No matter where I am geographically located.
    The main thing you need to be aware of is it you switch to many times between the stores, it will stop allowing you log into one of them, not sure what the actuall number of switches is though....

    I have just received an email saying i have downloaded an app from another device.
    This wasn't me, i have changed my password.
    What do i do now?

    Hi stirling r,
    I have always been very weary of fake emails and can easily spot the ones that get through the spam filters but for the first time in my 25 plus years memory of using email, I though a fake email was genuine.
    Ok, granted the email was supposedly from Apple so there's an implied level of trust there and I had updated my Apple ID details hours before, but it was only after doing a double take at the url link in the email I realised it was fake. It was pointing to an IP address (http://104.145.233.95/..etc) and not the usual https://www.apple.com/..etc.
    I just wandered how may Apple users, especially new ones would have unwittingly compromised their Apple ID details by this scam.  I would love to see Apple doing more to make its users aware of scams directed at them.
    Hope this helps someone!

  • Buying apps from another store?

    Is there any way of buying apps from another country store and using them on your ipad? There are some apps I would like but for some reason are not available on my own country store.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    No - the terms of use of the iTunes stores say that you can only buy from the country that you are currently in (and, I'm not sure on this, but you may also need to have a credit card registered in that country).
