Adobe AIR really needs an EXE capability (like Shu) OR the ability to install the AIR runtime & application without admin rights. Adobe is being stubborn here, and they just want end users to see that you are using Adobe AIR, they want the credit. Thats what this is all about. But how about flashing an Adobe graphic at the start of the applicaion loading? The thing is that if Adobe wants AIR to truely succeed they MUST make it very easy for use to distribute our applications (like all other runtimes do).

Come on and wake up, EXE wrappers exist because a void Adobe won’t address.

BTW – put WebKit HTML support in Flash Player for us Flex Developers!!!!

I put in my request for distribution before Xmas and haven’t heard a thing. I have been emailing everyday to the licensing department with no response at all.

They sure are making it hard to “do the right thing”

I’m sure this will get edited out. If it’s you Mike or whoever at least send the licensing department a wake up call.. Thanks

import mx.core.Application;
import mx.core.WindowedApplication;
import adobe.utils.ProductManager;

public function reStart():void
{
var app:WindowedApplication =
WindowedApplication(Application.application);

var mgr:ProductManager =
new ProductManager(“airappinstaller”);

mgr.launch(“-launch ” +
app.nativeApplication.applicationID + ” ” +
app.nativeApplication.publisherID);

NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit(0);
}

But if i have install my AIR application by silent install means restarting AIR application won’t work anymore.
Is it known issue?
Please suggest something to get out of it?

Thanks!

Airinstaller.exe -silent -eulaAccepted -location “C:/Program Files/Abcd” abcd.air

It works fine. But i want to launch AIR application immediately after install. Is it possible?

Thanks!

this is what i’m searching for.

“Email me if you need help and I can give you the code on how to do it.”

how can i contact you or do you have a url where i can view your source/solution.

a) The executable is close to 15 Meg and it is slow
b) Their documentation is horrible
c) No one will email you back. They just take your money and that is

I was able to create a PHP socket server and use Adobe Socket API to pass the commeand to execute the program. I use the exec call. You can do the same thing with creating a C++ program to do Shell Execute and your C++ program can be a socket server.

I can do it so you can do it. Email me if you need help and I can give you the code on how to do it.

a) Their documentation is horrible and I can not even figure it out.
b) There is no support. I even emailed them and I never heard back from them.

Do not waste your money on buying their package. I finally figure the native applicaiton call on my own using Adobe Socket API. It is very easy to do.

Just write a socket server in C++ and use the Adobe Socket API to call the socket server. Your socket server can then invoke the application.
