FlashBuilder is required to create AIR for PlayBook games?

Hello

I have a client with some games to AIR that is interested in them to publish on the BB, but they are done with Flash. With Flash CS 5.5 I can convert it to AIR and deploy on Android.

But if I go to the page "Download the SDK" of BB (https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/air/download/sdk) and it says that I need Flash Builder. Is that absolutely necessary? Is it possible to publish Flash games for PlayBook?

Thank you!

FlashBuilder is not mandatory for creating AIR applications/games for the PlayBook.

I personally built several apps/games for the PlayBook using nothing more complicated that a plain old text editor and tools of command line to build, sign, package, deploy, etc..

    There will probably be a BBM API for AIR, as RIM told me that my IM applications should integrate into BBM to stay in App World. A few months ago they said it would be later 'this year '.

  • Adobe AIR for BB10

    Sorry for a fundamental question about AIR for BB10. I have several AIR apps on PlayBook and now reuse for BB10 phone.  Under AIR Developer documentation refers only to PlayBook.  Is the AIR process/tools for a phone BB10 even it was for PlayBook?  Is it simply a matter of target an existing AIR application to a different screen and then size by selecting a phone BB10 device in the App Store to get the published application?  What version of AIR is supported?

    It's a different SDK for BB10.  On the micro-AIR site, there are links for BB10 and PlayBook SDK:

    https://developer.BlackBerry.com/air/download/

    And per page Configuration required:

    https://developer.BlackBerry.com/air/download/requirements_bb10

    you want AIR 3.1 ('or more', but I recommend stick you with 3.1 until whenever)

    RIM upgraded AIR support)

    Our product requires request HTTP and Socket connections MDS (via BlackBerry Bridge or other) level.

    • Write a new app Playbook Adobe Air SDK?

    • Wait for Playbook Java Player?

    • Expect the Android player?

    Not that I know of. Someone can correct me if that's wrong.

    The reason is (I believe) because the devices are wifi only at this time and have no native functionality of PIM, so they just don't need. Later this year, there are supposed to be announced with integrated wireless modems, and I have to assume that direct connections of MDS will be available right here.

    You can use the browser 'bridge' If you have the bridge connected in order to get the connection through your BB smartphone user. However, the capacity is not exposed in the SDK.

    Overall, the SDK is rather limited at this stage. I would say that it supports only 30% of the capabilities of the Java SDK currently EHF.

  • Partial Wakelock in Adobe Air for Android

    I develop Adobe Air (for Android) application that is designed to be constantly turned on. App has operations based event. However, when the phone goes to sleep mode app is able to perform only one or a few events in a second which is not good enough. AIR SystemIdleMode.KEEP_AWAKE - mode is not an alternative because it is too consuming battery.

    I am looking for a solution when the phone is allowed to enter the mode 'sleep' (screen is off), but still the CPU performance are not radically fallen. Not sure Android part wakelock-mode does the job and is available through DONKEY?

    What type of event you are missing to be able to manipulate during sleep? According to the documentation from Adobe AIR decreases the rate of 4 frames per second when it is moved to the background or becomes inactive. Im guessing that the screen, disabling account in this respect and that is probably a reason as to why you have found only a few events a second, but I can't say for sure without knowing what type of event you use. In regards Android PowerManager WAKE_LOCK function, Google documentation says that you should not use this API unless you absolutely, and if you have to use it, you use it and do with it as soon as possible as long as this hurts API independence (they have same "BOLD" the part about the battery life). What you try to do that requires that the app is always on? More details can help myself or others provide other options to accomplish what you are trying to do. If you must use the PowerManager, you should be able to create a DONKEY to turn on and off the WAKE_LOCK mode, but could only help the side Android/Java things and you might need to move your event handling during the side of things because Java application of AIR will be always abandoned at 4 frames per second when the screen turns off.

  • Many problems with the runtime Adobe AIR for Android

    I created an application on Adobe AIR for Android platform, which requires for AIR. The app is very popular in the Android Market, but many users complain of problems with the installation of the Adobe Air runtime.

    For example, these users phones: LG LGE-P698, LG Pecan, HTC Wildfire. But judging by the fact that users have access to the installation of the Air, their phones are compatible with it.

    Tell me how to solve the problem?

    In addition, I have a few questions:

    1. Decides that the problem of demand for export with built-in AIR runtime?

    2. I have create my applications using ADT. In this case how do I seal AIR runtime?

    3. is it possible to invite the user to download and install older versions of AIR? Where can I find her?

    I hope I can help, because the problem is global.

    Hi Astraport,

    I think you should integrate the air in your application runtime,

    Some time ago I wrote a step by step guide, take a look at this post:

  • Adobe Air for iOS - SQLError: ' #3115 error ' no such table ".

    I'm developing Adobe Air application for iOS with sqlite on that. When running on my local machine, it worked like charm (add, edit and delete). Unfortunately, when tried to run on the iPAD, it gives me the following error:

    SQLError: Details ' Error #3115',:' no such table: ' tblEmploye ", operation: 'run', detailID:"2013".

    Here is my code when opening the sqlite database: * data is saved to the directory of the current application where all the files are stored:

           
            exampleDBFile = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("mydb.db");
    
            if (exampleDBFile==null || !exampleDBFile.exists) {
                MovieClip(root).mcSong.visible = false;
                MovieClip(root).mcAlert.visible = true;
                MovieClip(root).mcAlert.enabled = true;
                MovieClip(root).mcAlert.txtErrorMessage.text = "Database not found";
            }
            exampleDB = new SQLConnection();
            
            exampleDB.addEventListener(SQLEvent.OPEN, onExampleDBOpened);
            exampleDB.addEventListener(SQLErrorEvent.ERROR, onExampleDBError);
            
            //exampleDB.openAsync(exampleDBFile);
            exampleDB.open(exampleDBFile);
    

    I also tried to use the following but still no luck

    exampleDBFile = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("mydb.db");            

    using this, I get a different error: Error: Error #3104

    And here is the code for adding new entries

            
            sqlInsert = "insert into tblLyrics (empName, empDesc) values
                        ('"+ strReplace(txtSearchMe.text, "'", "") + "','"+ strReplace(txtContent.text,"'","") +"')";
            dbStatement.text = sqlInsert;        
            dbStatement.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, onDBStatementInsertResult);        
            dbStatement.execute();
    
    

    Hoping for your advice...

    Hello

    @uxavenue

    to add something to the post of samia:

    -on iOS your application directory is in 'read only' (at least when using native application)-so resources in the application directory (in the terminology of the Air - not iOS SDK SDK) may not be changed/written/updated

    -you could ship already created database sqlite with your application files, but must be copied to the writable to the application directory - for example documents. This directory is accessible via:

    File.documentsDirectory

    -When your application starts, you could do more:

    (1) build the path to the path of database documents

    (2) check if the database in this path exists (if this file exists)

    (3) if the file does not exist yet either copy in this path of the resource directory of the application (where you consolidate during the generation of project) OR create the new empty database using all these CREATE table and then INSERT statements required to create the new new copy of database

    (4) on each next start so check if the file exists at #2 jump creation/copy of database and simply start using it.

    Kind regards

    Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

    Hi downloaded my file with the + button under the heading of liberation, it was a generation with the SDK for QNX 10.0.0 Marmalade + and now, I would like to submit a version for the playbook 2.1 +. How should I present this new version of the same game.

    Also he accepted select me read book when I chose QNX 10 +, there are rules with 10 OS version? There is only 1 OS? Or I have to uncheck the playbook is Marmalade requires two separate playbook and blackberry 10 buildings.

  • Using events QNX in the AIR for BB10 in Flash Professional 5.5

    I want to use the QNX events in my AIR for BB10 application in Flash Professional. As the playbook, am I supposed to add a few swc files in order to use the events I get compilation error?

    I want to use "CardCloseEvent", but it gives compile error.

    Thank you!

    No worries,

    GoTo file > settings Actionscript > library path

    Press on the +, then navigate to the DONKEY

    Note: If it does not allow you to add DONKEY - make a copy and rename it to SWF.  He worked for Flash Builder 4.5.

    For each ALBUM, you may need to click on it and press the I button and change it externally.

    I don't know how Flash Pro builds your packages well-, but put in right place.

    First I downloaded with Safari, unzipped in and run it. The installation program requires the password for the admin user (I am logged on as administrator), and then I saw a progress bar and finally a blank screen and a blue 'next' button in the lower right.

  • Scale of BB! 0 app for Playbook

    Hi all, in excess of what can be described as sillyness, I created a game in webworks for my z10. I used fixed assets to the z10 resolution. now, I decided to port for playbook and obviously changing resolution is a bit problematic. is there a way I can use a tag of viewport to simply reduce the demand to adapt to the playbook? or do I have to do a lot of recoding and change the sizes of the assets?

    Please notify.

    Thank you once again,

    I did some functions rather fancy mathematics and just placed a large div behind the screen with a black background color and voila it worked.

    Thank you for your help. This issue is now closed

  • Creating apps for iPhone by PhoneGap using animate CC Possible?

    Hello

    What is Adobe animate CC appropriate to create apps for iPhone by PhoneGap.  There are some tutorials to facilitate dashboard but not for Flash Pro CC or CC animate.

    Thank you.

    PhoneGap acts as a wrapper app for web content. With Animate, you can do the same thing by using a StageWebView, so in a sense PhoneGap and Animate are competitors.

    But, if you had another reason to use PhoneGap, I guess that web content can include HTML5 Canvas files you did using Animate.

    Normally when you make mobile applications in Animate you would in an AIR, using ActionScript 3 application.
