RE: AIR app (Captive runtime) is blocked by anti-virus scanner

As long as you continue to use self signed certs and non EV-Code Signing certs 
from a trusted 3rd party intermediary certificate authority you will continue 
to encounter errors.

Hi many thanks for the support, from now we're experiencing problems with some 
AV providers but not all. I think "Avast" is not generating problems...so we 
still are figuring it out.

Thanks!

Contact digicert and get an EV Code signing certificate.   I am using winrar
to create a SFX archive as a single file exe then signing manually with the
EV cert.  Works great on all platforms and dosen't require any admin
privileges.

Hi Olaf,

We have the same problem with some of our customers on Windows. 
Indeed, I believe this is caused by the fact that our applications are
signed with a temporary certificate.

It would be great if Harman could integrate a signing tool for desktop Air
apps like the one that exists for signing mobile AIR applications.

Does  anyone have any information on how to sign a desktop AIR application ?
( I got this link : 
https://codesigningstore.com/how-to-sign-adobe-air-applications

Vincent.

[Jason Taylor]

Harmon is a freaking joke.  They still have no responded to ANY of our emails 
yet we paid them the enterprise license fee. Freaking mind blowing how much 
they botched this up.   We managed to grab the OSX 31 SDK off the damn way back 
when machine since it's no longer published anywhere but there is a known bug 
on OSX that is killing us on that one.

Hello friends,

I'm sorry to barge in so delicate matter, just wanted to raise my voice on this.

My apps don't require complex components as audio decoders, but we are all in a 
terrible situation nonetheless.

I can't stop wondering what else is broken. I definitively fear for the future 
of Air while hoping Harman can continue working on fixing it.

RE: Air SDK 33.1 F4M audio broken

[Jason Taylor]

Hi Andrew, F4M audio video does not work on any version of windows or mac big 
sur in the Air 33.1 SDK completely breaking our entire application and company. 
 You're telling me that your working on it, were aware of this?  Try this line 
of code in windows on the 33 sdk, which is the only SDK that works on the 
newest version of OSX:

Thanks Carlos

The latest AIR SDK 33.1 implements support for H.264/AAC on Windows; we’re 
still working on this for the MacOS side though. The challenge was that the 
software codecs used by Adobe in earlier AIR releases were subject to patent 
licensing and royalties which are no longer covered, so we’ve had to remove 
those. On Windows we can use capabilities provided via the Media Foundation, 
although we’re aware of a few issues existing in this.. We actually want to 
rework the entire multimedia area as it’s all very complex internally, so will 
be looking at that during the coming year; for the interim period we’re aiming 
to just implement decoders within the existing frameworks via these OS 
libraries..

thanks

   Andrew

Probably doesn’t help you but it's working in Flash Builder and using the

Build Processes

[Jason Taylor]

So one area where I am definitely weak is my build processes, and with growing 
complexity it's a little out of control.  This is all in IntelliJ Our main 
product is composed of 6 library modules and 3 flash modules (web version, 
desktop, version, tablet version).   Each output version uses a different 
FlexSDK, and there are additional builds on the tablet version with various 
configuration changes to publish to android/iOS targets.

I know there are things like ant, maven, grunt that supposedly are good a this, 
but for the life of me I have never found a good tutorial on setting these 
things up easily.  Can someone recommend me an approach that will be as 
painless as possible to setup?

Subject: [FLEXJS] FlexJS Event in San Francisco

Hi,

I have received permission from my managers to host an Apache FlexJS event at 
the Adobe office in San Francisco.  I want to use this thread to finalize plans 
for the event.  My current thinking is that it will be a one-day, all-day 
event.  A couple of presentations from me and Om about FlexJS in the morning, a 
lunch break, then a lab/hackathon in the afternoon.  It will be an opportunity 
to learn more about FlexJS and ask questions face-to-face.  The afternoon 
session is designed to try to get you up and running on FlexJS and ask more 
questions.

I need to choose one day during the week of April 4-8.  So if you have a strong 
preference for Wednesday or whatever, speak up now otherwise I will probably 
choose Monday the 4th.

Space is limited.  The room can hold around 20 people in a chair and table 
configuration, 40 or so if it is just chairs, so if more than one person from a 
business wants to attend, we might need to put folks on the waiting list.  If 
we get lots more demand than that we can think about other venues.  Also, I may 
run a similar event in Seattle later, and an open to replicating this format in 
other cities if folks can provide the room.

This event is currently free, although we might start a fund to cover food or 
maybe t-shirts or something.  Your response to this email won't be considered 
your registration for this event until we finalize the format, date and price.  
Then I'll send another email with more official registration information.

Thanks,

RE: Can I use Flex/AIR to achieve these results for iOS app?

you could encrypt the video with a private key and save under a different

Hi,

Does anybody know a way to convert an FXG graphic file to another image format?

SVG looks to be similar but I can't find any way to convert the graphics we've 
used in our Flex app for use elsewhere.

Thanks for any help!

Subject: how to run Flex app programmatically?

Regarding Flex for desktop web app, I'd like to make an application that can be 
launched/run programmatically by a computing language (for example C+, or java, 
python, etc), where the program submits login credentials, then the application 
will run as its intended. 

This isn't for testing purposes (e.g. Flex Monkey, etc.). The idea would be to 
replace a human from clicking to go to a website, then providing login 
credentials. The application would need to be run daily, and I'm trying to 
automate the process to make it easier for customers by integrating this task 
into their existing production code base. 

There's a lot of info out there about automatically submitting forms on 
websites written in HTML or Javascript. Thought maybe someone had advice about 
this in Flex app.

Sorry, but I don't think we should replace FXG as main skinning language.

Nothing against extending SVG support, but FXG is much nearer to Actionscript.

Also the SVG files created by most Illustration Software have to be cleaned up 
in the same manner as you say about FXG.

E.g. if you draw an object and reposition it, Inkscape (i guess Illustrator, 
too) just adds a transform attribute to the path instead of updating the path 
itself.
(You may find the object in a completely different position than expected in 
the SVG output, even when optimized).

I got the best results with a tiny piece of software for Xcode/Quartz 
developers: https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/ivinci-express/id607900811?mt=12
Purely SVG based, it is really WYSIWYG - even Illustrator and Inkscape files 
are cleaned up thoroughly (text is rendered as well).

I then built a SVG - FXG converter for Mac OS (based on an xslt-Script i 
slightly modified):

http://www.realcreation.com/SVGtoFXG.dmg

Used with a 'clean' SVG it virtually gives me everything as 'clean' FXG (no 
gradients yet, but that's easy to add manually or with e.g. 7jigen fxgeditor. I 
may update.)

(In addition, I wouldn't get too irritated about Adobe having abandoned FXG, as 
they also donated the FXG standard to Apache before, so they'd always be bound 
to changes implemented by Apache. Same reason they gave up FB Design View.)


Rgds.,

Sascha

I have found inscape to be very good.  FXG is a broken format afaik as flash,

 Once vector SVGs were handled well, it has been easy to make vector based

RE: Design tools for creating Flex 4 skins

[Jason Taylor]

why continue to use a format that requires you to jump through hoops and is 
only supported inside a few particular projects?  Save yourself the hassle and 
just use SVG (1.1+).  It makes it a heck of a lot easier to switch between html 
and flex development.  Now that SVG is working properly in Flex, I see no 
reason to continue forward with FXG.
Just my $.02

How is FXG broken? Do you mean when you paste it into each of these different 
places they all render differently? If that's true that's because they are 
converting to their own internal representation. Flash Catalyst was great at 
cleaning up the exported FXG from Illustrator. I would create a vector in 
Illustrator, go to save (as FXG) and copy the FXG to the clipboard, then in FC 
paste and it would pop open a dialog that let you choose how to handle the 
import. For example, it would rasterize some things if you didn't tell it not 
to.

But I agree that it would not always look the same as the original in 
Illustrator. I think FXG is supposed to be better than SVG (at least 1.0 SVG).
