Building Desktop App w/Flash Builder 4.7 as 64bit?

Hi all,

I've inherited a legacy codebase that's built on Adobe Flash.  The app runs as a native macOS and Windows desktop application, and at this time we do not have the resources/time to rebuild it from scratch.

With the news of High Sierra 10.13.4+ possibly dropping support for 32bit apps I was wondering if there was a way to build this application as a 64bit app via Flash Builder?  I couldn't find anything in the documentation or export options that suggested whether this was possible or not.

If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great!

Adobe AIR is 64-bit since AIR v20 for macOS

for Windows, you can find a 64-bit SDK and Compiler for Windows since AIR v26

Download Adobe AIR 28 Beta - Adobe Labs

look at the release notes for known issues

Thanks zwetan_uk and ASWC, these docs were enough to get me where I needed to be.  Confirmed the app as a 64bit build on my MacBook.

Cheers!

It's been available for a year or two starting with AIR 25 I think.
