osx ane x86_64 fails with error #3500: The extension context does not have a method for name

[jaco1]

Hello,

I'm developing my ANE for osx, tried sdk 19r (i386), 20r and 21r, you know they only support x86_64. No results as expected:

- myAneExt.framework is built with success in El Capitan / xcode 7.3.
- it's actually a POC to test a single method, quite sureI'm ok with my code (both c/c++ or actionscript)
- Max number version in extensiondescriptor name is 20, weird that 21 return an error (invalid namespace), so I have to build .ANE against 19/20

- Tried with no luck the workaround as suggested here: http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2015/12/air-64-bit-on-mac-osx.html

Of course, i'll continue to check it's my issue, but I'm quite sure is not, afaik not much devs are actually applying to osx ane, but they deserve things works.

Please, don't let this post without relevant answer.

thanx in advance

It seems very unlikely they'd work with older versions of Flash - any new ANE is 64-bit only, while the older Flash requires 32-bit ANEs.

I don't think old versions of Flash work with 32-bit ANE's any more.

I've tried building a 32bit ANE, and Flash will not load it.  I suspect this is because when publishing for AIR, Flash is using the AIR SDK including its compiler.(This seems to have been the case for ages)

BTW. There are other issues with using recent AIR SDK's with old versions of Flash, as iOS will not publish on AIR 20 or newer, as there is a compiler arguments error. I suspect that the AIR iOS compiler / publish system was changed so that the command line that old versions of Flash use, are not compatible with newer AIR SDKs 😞  However I've not had time to figure out precisely what the difference is.

I was having this error with stable release SDK 22.0. Following solution fixed my error:

I fixed the problem by removing Adobe AIR.framework from Build Phases > Link Binary With Libraries section in XCode. You only need to include Adobe AIR_64

.

Thanks FlashJoe​.FlashJoe

My XCode architecture is Universal (32/64-bit intel).
