Integrating AIR with Peripheral devices

We are planning to build a desktop application using Adobe AIR. The most important aspect of looking at AIR was portability between different devices. There is a requirement that when the AIR application is installed in the Desktop environment it is able to integrate with peripheral devices like signature pads and Credit card devices. How can this be enabled is there a way to integrate AIR with Java?A quick help regarding this would be highly appreciated since it will help us in making a decision.

Is the description tag of the app descriptor used in mobile apps?

Just a simple question. I know the <description> tag of the app descriptor is used in the desktop AIR installer to tell what's the app about, but, is it ever used when compiling for iOS/Android/BB? The description is usually added manually to the App Store / Play Store page, so it would seem as if it's never used.I remember a while ago seeing somewhere in Adobe's documentation a table of the descriptor tags which were used on desktop, which on mobile and which on both. Does anyone have the link to that page? I can't seem to find it now.Thank you!

Will AIR iOS's GameInput support the new iOS7 GameController API?

https://developer.apple.com/ios7/Apple announced a new GameController API yesterday, to be included in the upcoming iOS7. There's already a detailed programming guide in the new beta SDK for iOS developers.Meanwhile AIR Mobile SDK 3.7 just added GameInput support!It would be great if AIR iOS got gamepad support now! Especially as this is a strong sign from Adobe that Apple TV, including a gamepad, is on its way - it would be great if AIR Mobile were one step ahead as a game development tool on that platform when it appears!

BEGIN in SQL in AIR?

HII understand how to use the BEGIN and COMMIT listeners etc.I was wondering if you can use BEGIN TRANSACTION and COMMIT around a bunch of SQL processes in a single string?eg"BEGIN TRANSACTIONCREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx1 ON table1 (Artist COLLATE NOCASE, Title COLLATE NOCASE);CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx2 ON table1 (Id, Date);CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx3 ON table1 (Time, Reason COLLATE NOCASE);END TRANSACTION"or do they all have to be separate statements, each with a listener?I ask as I'm getting a "BEGIN is not allowed in SQL" error.Cheers

Problem with Adobe Licensing Agreement

I am attempting to open a new program I installed on my computer and apparently it requires Adobe AIR in order to operate.Each time I try to open the new program the Adobe AIR Licensing agreement opens with a TOS button that I click.Problem is, nothing happens after that.  The program never opens. This has happened before with other programs & AIR.I'd appreciate feedback to know what can be done to fix this and allow me access to the program(s).

air app gives error on mavericks

I wrote an AdobeAir app 3 years ago. It uses php and a MySQL database. It worked fine on leopard, snow leopard, lion and mountain lion. After upgrading to mavericks, the app now gives an error - 'default decode could not decode result' when attempting to start the app. There have been no code changes. I don't know where to start.

App audio plays while Kindle Fire screen is locked

I am hoping someone has found a solution to this issue:If I put my Kindle Fire to sleep using the power button, when I wake it back up, the app's audio begins playback while the screen is still locked.All the other soft keys on the device control the app and the audio as expected.As far as I can tell, it seems that when the Event.ACTIVATE fires, the app runs and Amazon just tosses a screen-lock overlay on top. My app is running at full frame rate (and playing audio) underneath the screen lock, but there are no events I can listen for to tell when the unlock happens.I'm probably missing something, but shouldn't there be an event type in the NativeApplication class that we can listen for? Everything I've tried so far doesn't work.I haven't submitted this to Amazon yet, but it seems likely to be rejected. Any ideas appreciated!

Download assistant hangup

Dear Adobe. (yes, I am frustrated and angry)I have been sitting in my hotel room in Rome for hours, trying to do the simplest of downloads, namely the Photoshop Elements 12.Well, the download failed, of course, due to the session being divided into two periods of time.But after two hours, the download assistant on my macbook air has locked itself in "unpacking", and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the download assistant.Now it only sits there, giving me the message "unpacking - this may take som time". You are damn right it takes time. Nothing happens, and I am not able to restart the download, because the assistant, even though reinstalled, receives Adobe information that says it has to unpack. But the package is damaged, and there is nothing I can do.So thank you, Adobe, for unabling my macbook Air to ever run Photoshop, how am I going to get through the photographic workshop here in Rome without PhotoshopYou tell me, and please tell me fast. Because the only option is now buying

AIR 3.6: Objects disappearing in GPU mode on Android

Hi,I begin to receive more and more reports from my Android users, telling me that some elements in my published apps are invisible to them.I created some Oracle Cards apps, showing up to 44 cards in a coverflow style (see a screenshot here: http://www.indie-goes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Screenshot4.jpg. You can also try a demo version here: http://www.indie-goes.com/apps/crystalwind/demo/)The free version of the app displays 10 cards in the coverflow, and all works fine. But when people get the full version through in-app purchase, which displays 44 cards, no card appears at all: just the background.A few facts:- The app is compiled in GPU mode- the free and full versions share the same code, so the only difference is the number of cards that will be displayed- cards are simply bitmaps inside sprites, on which I apply a rotationY effect- the app doesn't actually crash: the elements are just invisible- I tried to remove the elements that are outside the screen from the display li

Camera roll vs encoding

I was wondering if someone could help me understand why saving a mc as a bitmap into a shared object takes so much longer than saving to the camera roll. Saving to the camera roll is almost instantaneous from the same MC. Encoding takes several seconds. Thanks!

Stage3D Extended Mode

As far as I remember there were some new Stage3D extended mode features added with some AIR 3.x beta release but I wonder if they made it into official release or not. The features I`m talking about were MRT (multiple render targets), increased AGAL opcode count, AGAL conditionals and loops and rectangle textures. All I can find in the documentation is API for creating rectangle textures (by the way - why it is AIR only?). So - were all those other additions beta only or is API reference site just lacking some info?

File.preventBackup Not Working

Hi,I'm possibly using this property in the wrong manner, but I couldn't find any examples. In the startup of my mobile app, I'm doing something like:var cacheDir:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("cache");cacheDir.preventBackup = true;However, on iOS this directory is still getting backed up. Throughout the mobile app I am referencing File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("cache").url to open and write files. Should I instead be referencing the cacheDir variable in order for this to work? I wouldn't think it'd make a difference since both point to the same location.thx
