Porting Flex 2 Application to Flash 6

On a scale of 1 to 10 (11 being impossible), how difficult is
it to port a Flex 2 application to work with Flash 6? I've been
reading up and it appears the oldest version most Flex applications
will work with is Flash 9 due to the inclusion of ActionScript 3.
I read somewhere Flex 1 supported Flash 7. Would Flex 1 or
1.5 support Flash 6? If so, then the question becomes how difficult
on a scale of 1 to 10 (11 again being impossible) is it to reverse
engineering a Flex 2 application to Flex 1.

No. As I recall Flash 7 was the first to use AS2, and Flex 1x
absolutely requires AS2.
This will be a matter of abstracting the functional and UI
designs from the Flex app and implementing them in Flash 6. I don't
really care, but why on earth would you need to do this?

  • Flash Builder 4.5: debugging Flex Mobile application on Android Virtual Device

    Hi,
    we are trying without success to debug a flex mobile application in Flash Builder 4.5 on an Android Virtual Device (AVD).
    We can debug with real Android devices via Flash Builder 4.5, by using a standard Mobile Application debug configuration with "On device" launch method, but emulated devices are not listed in the "Choose device" Flash Builder 4.5 window.
    The emulated device is correctly listed by "adb" command line tool, as the following screenshot shows:
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.5\sdks\4.5.0\lib\android\bin\adb" devices
    List of devices attached
    emulator-5554   device
    ("emulator-5554" has been created and started with Android AVD Manager standard Eclipse plug-in)
    By using the adb command-line tool we can also install applications on the emulated device, but we'd like to use Flash Builder 4.5 directly, without manually using adb.
    Many thanks in advance for any direction.
    PS: we can debug with Flash Builder "internal" android emulator (the one used with "On desktop" launch method), but we want to use the more "realistics" android emulated devices provided by Android SDK (Android Virtual Device (AVD)).

    well that's just ... oh what's the word I'm looking for? ... um ... ah yes - inconvenient.
    I've been wrestling with this too. I use VDs with eclipse all the time, I'm wondering why it's not supported in flashbuilder. I mean, it's just a VD that runs on a virtual port, plugs into the editor like a read device would - right?
    I'm going to take a wild stab at this and say it probably has something to do with running a program inside (Air) a virtual machine, running inside a virtual machine inside a virtual device?

  • Flex iPad Application : Run code before application enters background  Application Type: Flex Mobile Application Target Platform: iPad AIR Version: 4.0 Development Environment: Flash builder 4.6  I want to run some code just before iphone application goes

    Application Type: Flex Mobile Application
    Target Platform: iPad
    AIR Version: 4.0
    Development Environment: Flash builder 4.6
    I want to run some code just before iphone application goes into background. I need function similar to didEnterBackground
    of native xcode app
    (https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIApplicationDelegat e_Protocol/Reference/Reference.h
    tml#//apple_ref/occ/intfm/UIApplicationDelegate/applicationDidEnterBackground:)
    I tried using devactivated function of flash.display.STAGE.
    I used following addEventListener:
    STAGE = this.parent.stage;
    STAGE.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, onAppDeactivated);
    It worked for me but only when device is connected to development environment in debug mode. When I create my release build
    it is not working.
    So how can I make sure that my code runs before application goes into background.

    Even I am facing almost same issue

  • Working Flex builder application crashes after flash player version 11.7.700.225

    I had developed a application in flash builder 4.6 at the time of development in that time latest browser 11.2 it was working smooth and fine all functioning is well. But now after new flash player release after 11.7.700.225 application doesn't show text and Clicks anso doesn't work. Please suggest me a solution what has been changed in version 11.7.700.224 and 11.7.700.225 due to that my application crashes.

    JavaScript and Cookies are enabled.  my cookies list shows at least 3 associated with hulu.  Funny thing is, if I grab the up/down control bar on right side of screen with my mouse, then hulu plays in a somewhat chopped frame by frame. As soon as I let go, the frame freezes yet audio portion continues.
    I don't know what a munged Hulu cookie is, however.

  • How to create and save a file in flex web application ?

    Hi,
          I want to create and save a file form flex web application. Is it possible ?
    I have done some googling and found that its only possible through file referece, which needs some serverside implementation be called.
    Is it not possible with file reference to create and save file directly ?
    Can any one suggest how to over come this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Alex,
    code written with the Flex Builder 3 libraries will certainly run in Flash Player 10. However, what you need is not so much the capabilities of FP10 but the library functionalities of the Flex 4 package. And I think that Flex 4 code will only run in FP10 and not 9 (but haven't tested this as at work we have not yet been permitted to upgrade, so there is not a lot of point going for Flex 4!).

  • Unable to write text in Hindi Language in Flex running application

    I am not able to write text in Hindi in flex running application.
    I have installed Hindi font by window system CD and all I did for font installation.
    But still I am not able to write in Hindi in the running flex application by using Flash Player with all version.
    I am able to write text in Hindi in MS Word, even in the flex builder editor and all the place but not in the running application.
    Is Flash Player doesn’t support Hindi Writing?
    My running application support all other languages except Hindi.
    Please help me. It’s very urgent.
    Thanks In Advance

  • Embedding swf into Flex Desktop Application size/scale problem.

    Hello,
    I am embedding an swf animation into my desktop Flex desktop application. I am using SDK 4.6.0. I use the SWFLoader to embed the animation:
    <s:SWFLoader source="img/mch_anim_1.swf"/>
    When I run the application, the animation is loaded and is working, but when I try to maximize the window there is a size/scale bug that happens. The screen  stays half-side maximized (maximized to the top, bottom and stays until the middle of the screen by side).
    I've published the SWF for Flash Player 8 and Actionscript 2 just to test and there was no problem with the size/scale, but I need to use Actionscript 3.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Stefan

    I found the problem!
    There was a line of code that was auto-generated from using a template out of Flash CS6. The line of code that caused it is:
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.SHOW_ALL;
    After deleting it, everything is now working properly.
    Greetings!

  • Flex Mobile Application with online database

    Hi,
    I would like to create a Flex Mobile Application but this one have to be read/connect  to a online database ?
    I don't found any tuto or infos about that...
    Could you please tell me if it's possible and if yes, how to do that
    Thanks in advance !

    I don't understand one thing...
    There are different type to do a connection between Flex and PHP.
    Which one is the best ?
    1. With AMF (Flex :  service-config.xml, RemoteObject) (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/crud_flex_php_zend.html)
    2. With Zend Framework (Flex : Callresponder, Time,...)  already included in Flash Builder 4.5 (http://devzone.zend.com/1701/flex-and-zend-framework_part-1/)
    3. With Zend Server and Flash Builder 4.5 with PHP (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash-builder/articles/flashbuilder-php-part1.html)
    It's three differents approach but in 2 & 3, it's auto configured with Flex.. however to do a connection between Flex Mobile & PHP (online), I have to use the solution 1
    So, if somebody can help me to explain and understand the difference between that.
    thanks

  • Flash Builder 4.5 applications crashing Flash Player

    I am a student taking a Flex course, and every time I run an application, my Flash Player crashes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest Flash Player, updated plugins for FF5, and still it crashes.  Is there anything else I could be missing? 
    Thanks

    Do you see the crash when you debug launch and you are a breakpoint?
    Firefox kills flash player when it does not respond for a certain amount of time. When you are developing, it may be better to turn this feature off:
    Type in about:config in the address bar and hit enter.
    Agree that you'll be careful.
    Type in dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs. Change the value to -1.
    Restart Firefox.

  • PDF Not loading anymore on Flex Air Application

    Hi,
    Ever since I updated my Adobe Readed to Version 11, I can't view any PDF on my Flex Air Application anymore. Is there anything i need to do?
    AIR version: 3.6
    OS: Mac OS X
    Flex Builder: 4.6
    Adobe Reader: 11.0.02
    Flex components used: mx:HTML
    Please help.
    Thanks!

    Yes.  This is a well known bug in Air/Google Maps.  A lot of folks reported it on the Google Maps forums and here.  It was reported over a year ago with no action yet.  Major show stopper.
    For this main reason, I switched to the http://developer.mapquest.com AS3 API.  Plus they also recently released a Mobile Flash API that works great.
    I suggest you check it out because I don't anticipate any action on this issue on either side any time soon.
    Good luck!

  • Flex Component Kit for Flash Professional - still available?

    Is the Flex Component Kit for Flash Professional still available for download somewhere?
    We are currently trying to get some old stuff done in Flash to port over to flex and convert a MovieClip made in Flash to an SWC/Flex component.
    The link stated here at the bottom Flex Component Kit for Flash Professional (Adobe - Flex Downloads) does not work.

    There isn't. But the CS3 kit works for CS4 too.

  • Does Air applications Require Flash Player?

    Well, this question may sound stupid but please help me out with my basic doubt. Does those applications created in Flex (as AIR application) require Flash Player at the client side or just installing AIR at the client side will do?

    No, Just AIR runtime is enough. Air application will use the airglobal.swc for compile.
