Xoom Development With Flex Hero / FB Burrito

Hello:
I have been developing an app for Xoom using the Java SDK. We would like to use Flash so the app is more protable. I just got the Burrito beta with Flex Hero and since Xoom doesn't support flash yet there isn't much I can do except back end coding.
Will there be an emulator for Xoom?
Does developing using Flash create an APK that you can publish to the market? Obviously they'd need to update their device to support flash ...
I am at a cross road, continue with Java or switch to Flash. I need some advice!
Thanks.

Hi,
There's a difference between an app running on Android with the AIR runtime,
vs a Flash web app running in the browser. Currently Xoom supports the AIR
runtime, so you can create apps with AIR for Android and deploy them to the
device now, without needing the Flash Player in the browser. By March 18,
the Flash Player for the browser will be available to the Xoom. Flash Player
in the browser is separate from the AIR runtime.
When creating apps with Flash or Flex using the AIR for Android deployment
option (currently in FB Burrito or Flash CS5 latest update) you can create a
.apk file that can be installed onto any Android device that supports AIR:

Is there any difference in an android .apk file developed with flex/flash?

Is there any difference in an android .apk file developed with flash compared to one developed with flex?
I just made a test application and the textinput reaction time is way too slow. I used Flash to build it.

Thank for the response.
What I actually wanted know though was if there is a difference between an android app developed with falsh cs5 compared to an app developed with flash builder 4.

App developed with AIR 1.5 (or Flex 3 sdk) export to Tablet

I have an enterpise app maked with Adobe AIR 1.5, developed with Flex 3 SDK and halo components (MX not Spark).
I want to export this app to a tablet for my client (this app is very easy to use in a touch screen). But i supose that i have to rewrite all app in Flex Hero SDK (and export with AIR 2.6) and its hard.
Anyone has export an app developed with Air 1.5 or Flex 3 SDK to a tablet of android, blackberry or IOS with AdobeAIR 2.5 or 2.6?
Perhaps it could run in a tablet of Windows 7 but this tablets seems realy poor...
Thanks guys!

Anyone has an old app made in flex 3 or air 1.5 who wants to export an tablet?

Getting started with Flex ...

Hi All,
I've been looking a Flex over the last couple of weeks and have managed to setup a couple of basic projects that can read data from a mySQL database etc... However when it comes to understanding some of the more advanced frameworks and options to use with Flex it starts to get very overwhelming.
Does anyone have any pointers/suggestions for good material (online or books etc) to start with Flex. I come from an Oracle Forms development background and in terms of setting up an application with a connection to a database Oracle Forms seems to a lot simplier than building a Flex database application (although the functionality of Oracle Forms as a lot more limited than Flex/Flash).
I have taken a look at a the book Enterprise Development with Flex: Best Practices for RIA Developers (Adobe Dev Lib)http://www.amazon.com/Enterprise-Development-Flex-Practices-Developers/dp/059615416X/ref=s r_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1319581262&sr=1-6 by Yakov Fain, Victor Rasputnis and Anatole Tartakovsky (Mar 30, 2010), however the very first code example in the book appears to be dated and I'm having trouble getting it to work and finding the appropriately dated source files for the example project.
I have also taken a quick look at Adobe Flex 4.5 Fundamentals: Training from the Source by Michael Labriola and Jeff Tapper (Aug 5, 2011) which appears to be a bit more recent, however I am not sure how much is covered regarding database connections to databases like mySQL and Oracle.
Any suggestions on the best learning materials available would be really helpful. At the moment it feels like I need to be an expert in Flex, MXML, ActionScript, Java, Spring, Hibernate, AMF, Maven, BlazeDS etc etc just to be able to create a simple database centric application (aarrgghh).
Ideally I would love to be able to find a recent tutorial that goes through the building a relatively advanced Flex database centric application, that includes information about building a database based login/authentication system (without having to use PHP), and database controlled/stored main menu system and a system for modular sub tabs/screens/programs within a main application.
Regards,
Leigh.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I guess I'm a bit lazy when it comes to reading up on a technology I am not familiar with :-) . What makes things worse is the Oracle Forms Builder IDE is very highly coupled to the Oracle database and therefore there is no requirement to know or understand the language or technology under hood (other than PL/SQL), Oracle takes care of that within the IDE and the Forms Java Bean (deployed by default with a middleware installation of Oracle application server).
@dwaynie Started working through the Flex in a week video training yesterday. Its really good and probably the best place for me to start as it goes over a lot of the assumed knowledge regarding Flex, MXML and AS (stuff I have probably glossed over up until now)
@Mansuro noticed that spring has a dedicated page on the Flex/Flash plaform site so I'll probably look into this more down the track. I guess the thing I am little confused about is that there are many examples online that integrate Spring + Hibernate + Maven + Java etc etc, I guess each framework has different features that the others don't and therefore all can be used at once, or does each one offer a completely different service? More reading is required here I think.

What is prereq for reading above, and for start develop/reading with flex and cf(level?) ?

The Flex Quickstarts will be a place for starters, if you want to know
about Flex/CF integration the first to know would be some basics of CF.

Download Flex hero SDK ASDOCS

Hi,
Where can I download the asdocs? The SDk contains a small directory asdocs with a build.xml. I tried to build it, but get: 4.5.0\asdoc\build.xml:47: FLEX_HOME must be set to use the Flex Ant Tasks
(I have set FLEX_HOME)
The online help is no longer available: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.5/UsingFlashBuilder/AH_HOME.html
Thanks,
ropoboy

The actual answer is to go to the main Developer Documentation page (http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Developer+Documentation), ignore the Flex Hero content and that there is no reference to Flex 4.5, click the 'General Flex 4 Documentation' link under 'Flex 4', this will take you to Flex 4.5 documentation, where you will find a link to the 'Full Documentation Set (zip)'.
However the ASDoc documentation that is included here is partially broken. The "Show packages and classes list" link at the top doesn't work in Google Chrome on Mac. It does work in Firefox and Safari on Mac.
It would be nice if Adobe could:
1. Update their main Developer Documentation page so that Flex 4.5 content can be found under a link to Flex 4.5 content rather then have it be buried under Flex 4. Similarily it would be nice if Flex 4 content could be found under the link to Flex 4 content.
2. Consider fixing the ASDoc that is included in the full documentation set for Flex 4.5 so it works in Chrome.

[Flex Hero] How to put Google Mobile Ads in AIR on Android

Hi, everyone
I am developing a free application with Adobe Flash Builder "Burrito". Thank you to Flex SDK team, the SDK is very easy to implement the application.
My question is, Is it possible to put Google Mobile Ads in the application (for example, Ad Mob)? If yes, could you give me some guideline?
I think this is the key feature to make AIR for Android more popular. People make money from it!

I filed a feature request to expose this functionality in Flex: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-28875 Please vote and leave a comment with your use case.
In the meantime you might want to look into exposing unavailable APIs like in this post: http://elromdesign.com/blog/2010/10/29/hacking-native-android-with-air-app-to-allow-air-ac cess-unavailable-apis/

Flash to Android = Flex Hero?

Flex Hero, is that Actionscript to native Android code???
Or is it just apps on adobe air on top of Android OS example user would need to have adobe air on their android phones to use your apps, or can they use your apps without installing air???

WOW, that'd be really nice...
I tried developing for android using eclipse and the android sdk etc..
1. it took forever to setup...them opensource type stuff isn't meant to be easy...wish they would make a setup.exe or something. It's like copy this here, change this file and then spend hours figuring out they missed a step in their instructions. And the instructions were from google themselves.
2. Then there was the idea of having to learn java...*sigh*
Eclipse and Android development setting up process and development is bunk compared to visual studio and windows 7 phone development. Visual studio development for windows 7 phone is like WOW. Easy setup, and really nice work flow. The emulator is much faster as well, anyhow too bad no one uses windows 7 phones though.
If that's the direction that ADOBE is going with Flex, that's great...flex builder enviroment and work flow using action script creating native android apps would be like WOW!

AIR application with Flex 4.5 will not render content. What gives?

OK,
So I've upgraded to Flash Builder 4.5 Premium and I am unable to develop desktop AIR applications with the 4.5 Flex SDK. I start by simply creating a brand new AIR application using the default SDK (Flex 4.5). I set the title property on WindowedApplication and include a simple Label component. The project compiles fine but when I run the application all I see is the adl window in the dock but that's it. If I modify the Main-app.xml file to set the visible attribute to true, I will get a small window but there is no content although the output window shows the application swf being loaded. Checking the release version of the Main-app.xml file shows the correct path location to the swf.
Here is what I've tried so far:
Install/reinstall Flash Builder, 4+ times
Downloaded the trial installation twice
Downloaded the SDK's for 3.6, 4.1 and 4.5.0. I then copied each SDK folder and merged the AIR 2.6 SDK with each copy. So now I have 6 SDK versions; one pristine and the other with the AIR 2.6 SDK merged. I then added each SDK individually and created an AIR desktop application for each. Each and every one works fine with the exception of the two 4.5 SDK's. They will not render content.
I created a simple creation complete handler for the application that declares a simple variable and assigns a value to it. I then put a break point on the assignment and it never gets caught. More evidence that the swf isn't getting loaded.
The computer I'm running on is a Mac Book Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.7. If I create a web project in each of the 6 SDK's, those will work just fine. What the heck is it with Flex 4.5 and the AIR 2.6 SDK on this machine? I have the AIR 2.6 runtime installed as well as a number of AIR applications that work just fine. I also tried my 4.5 test on my windows machine and that worked like a champ.
I am completely out of ideas. Finding information has been difficult because everyone is all about mobile so searching for desktop issues is a losing battle. I realize this is a long email but I'm desperate for help. There must be someone out there that knows more about the low level interaction between Flex 4.5/AIR 2.6 and the OS.

Well, I finally found the issue, a corrupted mm.cfg file in /Library/Application Support/Macromedia. I deleted the file and then adl ran just fine.

Flash Builder 4 with Flex SDK 4.0 for Intel App Up

There is some misinformation on Intel AppUp and the Melrose FAQ about being able to publish with Flash Builder 4.
Intel App Up Program Submission
According to http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/article/adobe-air-packaging-guide-atom-developer-progr am-submissions
"AIR app must be built using Flex Builder 3 with Flex SDK 3.5a. Currently Flex Builder 4 with Flex SDK 4 is not supported."
Melrose FAQ
According to http://learn.adobe.com/wiki/display/melrose/Melrose+Developer+FAQ
"Q: Are there system requirements for enabling try and buy in AIR apps using Melrose?
A: You must have Adobe Flex Builder 3 or greater and Adobe AIR 1.5.3 or greater."
Is the Intel App Up statement correct? If it is, could I get an explanation why? I've been waiting for the last 3 months waiting for the Melrose SDK to deploy to Intel App Up and now I can't even submit my application.
Thanks.

The current version of Melrose supports Flex 3.5 SDK for AIR applications running on AIR 1.5.3 runtime or higher. You can use Adobe Flex Builder 3 with Flex 3.5 SDK or Adobe Flash Builder 4 with Flex 3.5 SDK.
Support for Flex 4.1 SDK for AIR applications running on AIR 2.0 runtime should be available within a few weeks. Please note that we will not be able to support Flex 4.0 SDK because of certain technical challenges.

How to display html content in flex hero..

i need to display html content using flex hero for balckberry playbook..i could not find a component for it..i have tried with spark text area by setting its html text property via MobileTextField. bt i need a webview to load html content to execute javascript and all....Is there any component for it???? Please help....

Hello,
The only current way is to use an iFrame, or if you only need some html tags you could use the Text Layout Framework.
Here this is the iFrame approach:
http://code.google.com/p/flex-iframe/
If the swc do not work in Flex4 just use its ource code which works...
...it is basically based on this:
