Accessing flash Engine in Brew

[jagadish]

How to access brewsaplayer extension and flashlite_2_1 engine from my brew application. Any information about functions extended by related interfaces

I guess you are interested in hooking flashlite engine with your C/C++ BREW application, or you intend to create flash application.

1. If you want to hook up flashlite engine with your C/C++ BREW application, then you need to contact Adobe for that. I wouldn't cost you anything extra, however you need to submit your request to Adobe.

Kindly visit the webpage http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/brew/

are u able to run the application usingbrewsaplayeri m not able to run it ..i have the extension flashlite_2_1 :confused: :confused:

NOTE: i do not have flashlite_2_1_publisher_brew.exe installed
do u need this one to run the application

also kindly tell me if u need some special skins/devices to run it on simulator...i m using 3.1.4

You have to use brewsaplayer and flashlite_2_1 together. You need to download brewpublisher from Adobe website.

brewsaplayer and flashlite_2_1 are extensions, can't be run by itself.

thanks ruben,

i have "flashlite_2_1_publisher_brew.exe" downloaded from the Adobe site...but when i try to install it...it says u need Macromedia as well (which i dont have)

is Macromedia Flash application needed for "flashlite_2_1_publisher_brew" to install..if yes then this is bad :(

[ruben]

In order to create flash content you need to have Macromedia/Adobe flash authoring tool without that you can't create flash content. So after you install flash authoring tool you can install flashlite_brew publishier add-on.

thanks ruben for ur reply
i will install Macromedia n test the application..
one more offbeat query.... i heard u can now develop UI screen by drag n drop just like in VB ...any idea abt the same ??

[ruben]

You mean using Flash, if so, yes, flash allows you to develop UI rapidly, if you are asking about something else, then you possibly need to clarify your question.

[Viral]

no i was asking in general..like i heard that now u would be able to insert UI elements without coding much ...like we have code behind view concept in .net
will that be the case

[ruben]

As far I know there is none yet :)

Hi Ruben,

So if we want to utilize the FlashLite API's, then we need to contact Adobe?

API meaning the basic functionality for FlashLite, i.e. play, stop, forwarding key events, etc.

Thanks.
