Adobe AIR and the API Feedburner: reloaded

Tuesday, 18 November, 2008

I rush of high tutorial Napolux, Flex 3, Adobe AIR and the Feedburner API, which shows how to write a simple application (or widget) using Adobe AIR Flex 3, to show how the exact same thing using Adobe Flash CS3. If you wish, also, you can use the extension for creating Adobe AIR applications. It is not necessary for the purposes of this tutorial, build the application executable as AIR, you can use the code proposed as a simple Flash movie from "affixed" to your Web pages.

Flex vs Flash

Although Adobe AIR appreciate how technology and how it was implemented in platforms HTML (Dreamweaver), Flash and Flex, are not "yet" quite well disposed towards Flex! I do not make a comparison with Flash Flex, despite many common features but also many differences. But I did not quite appreciate the political Adobe on this spinoff sometimes nonsensical. I would have preferred, instead, creating a unique environment (Flax) development and not this "useless" separation. Moreover, as a good programmer, those too "visual" I do not much like Flex and it seems destined to become dangerously similar to Visual Basic, which among other very well and know that I worked for many years. In short, Flex I really do not understand and I did not understand what Adobe wants to do with this branch. If Flex is listed as the ideal environment to write RIA what the fate of Flash? All the features of Flex, actually not available "directly" in Flash, could - if you want - be included without forcing to buy multiple licenses to develop - in the end - the exact same thing.

Simple Flash Generator 0.5 Project: An AIR application for Flash

Monday, August 18, 2008

In Actionscript 3.0 for beginners: # 1 lesson we have seen the necessary steps to create a project in Flash CS3. So I came the idea to automate, to some extent, this process thanks to the features of Adobe AIR. I made a simple application in Adobe AIR can automatically generate all the files (. FLP. Fla,. As) who serve for a minimal project in Flash.

Simple Flash Generator Project

Simple Flash Project Generator creates a folder named with the name of the project. Inserts in the project file (. FLP) is an empty movie (. Fla) and a skeleton class file (. As). Opening the project is already all the files you need with the class document already set. The only thing to do is put this class of property in flash! The only thing that I was not able to automate.
If you have any advice or suggestions for improving this tool does not hesitate to comment.

Adobe AIR: sparariamo the screen

Wednesday, March 12, 2008

Adobe AIR: shoot on the screen Would you like to take a "Pistoletto" your screen? Without actually destroying it, of course ;) Here's an AIR application that allows you to do so. For now present in developed Dreamweaver, and HTML / Javascript. Soon, weather permitting, I will re-write it entirely in Flash. This "nice" (I hope) application actually serves to demonstrate the "desktop" of AIR. The effect is achieved sostanzialemte harnessing the power of Adobe AIR to create windows (Window) completely transparent. Launching the application does not see on the screen, except that clicking with the mouse will produce a great "hole" in video ;)
