Adobe is tracking support for Windows Phone 8 and AIR - https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3648920Let's get the votes up!

Just moved to AIR 3.6 SDK. Seeing the following error when packaging for iOS via adt on the command line:Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: flash.data::SQLIndexSchema::flash.data:SQLIndexSchema::_table has a slot id(4) larger than the name count(2).          at adobe.abc.GlobalOptimizer$InputAbc.readTraits(GlobalOptimizer.java:855)          at adobe.abc.GlobalOptimizer$InputAbc.readInstance(GlobalOptimizer.java:1030)          at adobe.abc.GlobalOptimizer$InputAbc.readAbc(GlobalOptimizer.java:391)          at adobe.abc.GlobalOptimizer$InputAbc.readAbc(GlobalOptimizer.java:279)          at adobe.abc.LLVMEmitter.generateBitcode(LLVMEmitter.java:320)          at com.adobe.air.ipa.AOTCompiler.convertAbcToLlvmBitcodeI

         Hi guys. We are working on simple flex application based on Flex 4.6 + AIR 3.8. After ad-hoc or relese pakage we have big problems with application start time. For now it took about 50 seconds of black screen to start our app.  Our research with Scout shows weird problems with AS3 code initialization. Event "complete" in frame 6 take about 41747ms to finish. This happens only in release builds, and i think this is Embed / Compiler issue. Please explain me this behavior. You could find saved Scout Session here

Hi,I have tried to create an app for ipad. I used a TLF TextField to load a html data at run time. TLF-text executed well with HTML-data but it could not load a swf file. For n example, i have used the following code:quesTxt.border = true;var sHtmlOriginalData:String = "<FONT><P align= 'center'><IMG src='http://server.com/name.swf' WIDTH='220' HEIGHT='75.80'></IMG></P></FONT>";quesTxt.htmlText = sHtmlOriginalData:String ;where "quesTxt" is a TLF-TextField. "IMG" tag worked on jpg or png but it was not worked on "swf".So could anyone tell me whether is it possible to load swf on TLF- TEXTFIELD for IPAD ??

I'm not an Adobe AIR developer yet. From what I've seen so far, it looks like a decent environment to work in but I'm very early in my research. I'd love to hear from you as to why you picked it. I've got an application in mind and would like it to be able to have the following characteristics:Run on a variety of devicesHave access to local hardware, sensorsTransmit data on demand either to or from device, choose network and level of compression based on rule setAccess a variety of databases including Oracle, SQL*Server, MySQL.Have a strong development community and resources.Seems AIR has all these things. Would love to know why you picked AIR, other products you looked at and elminated, why you eliminated those?Thanks so much.

Hello,I have created a native extension which launches a native android activity with a simple view in it by firing an Intent.The issue is that when we minimize the app and resume it by either choosing the app icon from apps menu, Android automatically calls the onDestroy of the native android activity and kills it.I have no idea from where else can the onDestroy function be called? I need to figure out a way to stop the native activity from being destroyed on app resume.The code to launch the native activity is something like this:Intent intent = new Intent("com.app.myAcivity");intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);context.getActivity().startActivity(intent);The entry for the activity in the manifest goes like this:<activity android:name="com.app.myAcivity"/>I have read a lot of blogs and SO questions but could not get around this issue. Please help.I don't have this problem with native Android app.Thanks.

Hi there, I'm getting this issue when trying to link my ANE with ffmpeg libs which I build on Mac OS X Snow Leopard (XCode 4.2)ld: illegal text relocation to _uyvyToY_c in ..../libswscale.a(input.o) from _ff_sws_init_input_funcs in ...../libswscale.a(input.o) for architecture i386Problem is apparently when MachO linking type is set to dynamic lib. When this is static lib/executable any project with ffmpeg links. I've tried something I have found on the internet, which says to use read_only_relocs supress (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6650178/illegal-text-reloc-to-non-lazy-ptr-error-while-building-in-xcode-4-with-libav-l). This makes the ANE compile, however when I launch the AIR app using this ANE I get a crash. Unfortunately I have a suspicion this is caused by the issue above but because I'm not working on Mac normally and seeing this for first time, I'm not sure. So I'm kind of stuck. This is a snippet out of the crash(can provide more if needed):------------------------------

Hi,After going through a lot of articles already available, I found answers with varying views on the following questions:-1) Can we embed swf files using the embed tag in air app for ios, with symbols exported ? Something like [Embed(source="someSWF",symbol="exportedSymbol")]and also something like [Embed(source="someSWF")].From what I understand, one can't embed swf's with actionscript byte code in them. So exporting symbols actually creates class linkages which leads to creation of abc. But I'm unsure on this because some sources say otherwise.2) Can we embed swf files using embed tag in air app for ios, without symbols exported ?Something like [Embed(source="someSWF")]and also something like [Embed(source="someSWF" mimeType = "application/octet-stream")]I read somewhere else, that you can actually embed symbols separately by providing symbol tag in embed tag but not entire swf (which leads to uncompiled actionscript error) but not sure about this as this is contradictory to finding

Hi,I'm trying a native extension to trigger the iOS7 mic prompt but it's not showing up as I expect.This is what I call in my native extension    if([[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] respondsToSelector:@selector(requestRecordPermission:)])    {         [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] requestRecordPermission:^(BOOL granted) {           // blah         }];    }Ideally I would like to be able to return whether it was granted or not. But when I tried it would always return FALSE So then, I was just interested in triggering this popup first thing when my app starts and not handle whether the user granted access or not, but I am not seeing any popup where I call the native extension.My app has not yet given access to the mic (I reset my device settings to ensure that and cannot see my app listed under Privacy->Microp

Hi All,Once upon a time, Aptana allowed you to attach a debugger to your AIR app, set breakpoints in your code, and step through the code while it was running.  Typical debugging experience.Support for this was dropped with Aptana v3, and I doubt it will ever come back now that Appcelerator bought Aptana.  They want you to use Titanium, not Adobe AIR.Is there another IDE that allows you to debug an HTML/JS app?  -Josh

HiJust getting up and runningMac OS X 10.9. Adoe AIR 3.9.

I am playing a live streaming sound on iOS and it works in the background without any issues when I am using AIR 3.8. But in AIR 3.8 I am facing the iOS 7 microphone prompt issue which has been solved in the AIR 3.9 releases. When I try using AIR 3.9 the background task execution does not work when we used the power button. Is there any workaround for this issue or has it been fixed or will it be fixed in the latest releases."[3616981] [iOS] - Sound gets stop on clicking Power button even when UIBackground tag value set to Audio in application.xml"

I'm stumbling around trying to get Box working in an iPad app, has anyone else managed it?Thanks in advance...

Hi,Does anyone know what happens to an Android AIR app when the user puts the device on hold manually by pressing the power buttton?  Does the app still continue to run in the background, or is it completely paused?The reason I am asking is I have made an alarm-clock app which fails to trigger ( alarm sound is not heard ) when the device is put on hold, manually ( by pressing the power button ).  However, when the user merely minimizes the app, the alarm does go off just fine.  Any ideas on how to make it so the alarm triggers even when the device is put on hold manually?
