Ugh.. beware also what stalled me for a while tonight... Using the 1.5.1 sdk I figured I'd need to update the line:
<update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/1.0";> to <update xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/framework/update/description/1.5.1";> in my update.xml ... turns out this causes an error to be thrown... [StatusUpdateErrorEvent (type=updateError text=unknown update version id=16815 + subErrorID=0)] Seems strange that that namespacing hasn't been updated to 1.5.1, or that changing it to 1.5.1 breaks the parser. On a lighter note, I'm on Leopard and it wasn't necessary to use the setTimeout nor the applicationComplete workarounds. 2009/3/4 Rick Schmitty <flexc...@gmail.com> > Just for completeness, Raul Hudea from Adobe suggested moving the > event to onApplicationComplete and that has fixed the issue for me w/o > needing the setTimeout delay > > I guess my mac is faster than my pc and needed that few ms delay > before calling the updater :) > > > On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 8:58 PM, Rick Schmitty > <flexc...@gmail.com<flexcode%40gmail.com>> > wrote: > > Thanks Marcello, that definitely wouldn't have been something I would > > thought to try :) > > > > On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 5:33 PM, Marcello Teodori > > <marcello.teod...@gmail.com <marcello.teodori%40gmail.com>> wrote: > >> Same here, on Leopard we've solved waiting a little timeout before > >> dispatching the > >> initialiazed event...
