I've written a database generation script in sql, and want to execute it in my Adobe air application: Create Table tRole ( roleID integer Primary Key ,roleName varchar(40));Create Table tFile ( fileID integer Primary Key ,fileName varchar(50) ,fileDescription varchar(500) ,thumbnailID integer ,fileFormatID integer...
I need the name of the current logged in user in my Air/Flex application. The application will only be deployed on Windows machines. I think I could attain this by regexing the User directory, but am open to other ways....
I have 2 SQLite databases, one downloaded from a server (server.db), and one used as storage on the client (client.db). I need to perform various sync queries on the client database, using data from the server database. For example, I want to delete all rows in the client.db tRole table, and repopulate with all rows in the server.db tRo...
(y/N) Edit: Read-only access is fine....
I've written (most of) an application in Flex and I am concerned with protecting the source code. I fired up a demo of Trillix swf decompiler and opened up the swf file that was installed to my Program Files directory. I saw that all of the actionscript packages I wrote were there. I'm not too concerned with the packages, even though the...
I have written an AIR Application that downloads videos and documents from a server. The videos play inside of the application, but I would like the user to be able to open the documents in their native applications. I am looking for a way to prompt the user to Open / Save As on a local file stored in the Application Storage Directory. ...
Does anyone know why when using BindingUtils on the selectedItem property of a ComboBox you get the following warning? Any ideas how to resolve the issue? The binding still works properly, but it would be nice to get rid of the warning. warning: multiple describeType entries for 'selectedItem' on type 'mx.controls::ComboBox':<accessor ...
I am trying to include a link to my application in the Startup folder with a parameter passed to the program. I think it would work if I created the shortcut locally and then added it to my source. After that I could copy it to the Startup folder on first run. File.userDirectory.resolvePath("Start Menu\\Programs\\Startup\\startup.lnk"...
I cannot figure out how to change the title bar icon (the icon in the furthest top left corner of the application) in Adobe AIR. It is currently displaying the default 'Adobe AIR' red icon. I have been able to change it in the system tray, however. ...
I have a script that retrieves objects from a remote server through an Ajax call. The server returns objects in JSON notation. However, in Adobe AIR, there is a restriction on using eval() for security reasons. So I'm able to get replies from the remote server, but can't turn them back into Javascript objects. Is there any workaround fo...
It seems that it is impossible to capture the keyboard event normally used for copy when running a Flex application in the browser or as an AIR app, presumably because the browser or OS is intercepting it first. Is there a way to tell the browser or OS to let the event through? For example, on an AdvancedDataGrid I have set the keyUp e...
As the title says, is there a way to run the same Adobe AIR app more than once? I have a little widget I wrote that shows thumbnails from a couple of photo streams, and I'd like to fix it so I can look at more than one stream at a time. Thanks! ...
I've been utilizing the command pattern in my Flex projects, with asynchronous callback routes required between: whoever instantiated a given command object and the command object, the command object and the "data access" object (i.e. someone who handles the remote procedure calls over the network to the servers) that the command objec...
Is it possible to generate PDF Documents in an Adobe AIR application without resorting to a round trip web service for generating the PDF? I've looked at the initial Flex Reports on GoogleCode but it requires a round trip for generating the actual PDF. Given that AIR is supposed to be the Desktop end for RIAs is there a way to accomplis...
Hello, I am using Adobe Flex/Air here, but as far as I know this applies to all of JavaScript. I have come across this problem a few times, and there must be an easy solution out there! Suppose I have the following XML (using e4x): var xml:XML = <root><example>foo</example></root> I can change the contents of the example node using ...
We have a number of scripts that we use for various deployment and data import tasks. These are currently called through a number of command lines calls or batch files. We'd prefer a cool little interface to run them and collect feedback rather than a plethora of drop downs. This will probably be developed in our developer's "20% time" ...
I want to develop some educational content, which I want to distribute to children using Adobe AIR. The content will contain videos. Now, from what I see, AIR will put the content onto the local file system, for anyone to see. I want to prevent this. Is there a way out? ...
I'm looking at ways to embed PDF viewing in a Flex application. Currently the only option I've seen is by using the flash.html.HTMLLoader class, which only works if you're using AIR. This isn't a big deal -- I'm willing to use AIR if I have to -- but based on my experimentation with viewing a PDF this way it appears that AIR simply inte...
I'm new to Air. I've got an existing Flex 2 application which I'm considering bringing into Flexbuilder 3. My question is can I use the same base application (and source code) to make the Air version, or would I have to maintain to separate code trees: one for the Air version and one for the Flex/SWF version? ...
I have an application that loads external SWF files and plays them inside a Adobe Flex / Air application via the SWFLoader Flex component. I have been trying to find a way to unload them from a button click event. I have Google'd far and wide and no one seems to have been able to do it without a hack. The combination of code I see people...
