The beauty of AIR
You have experienced it: the ability to write cross-platform code, combined with the extendability that allows you to write native extensions and tap into platform-specific functionality. And if you, fellow AIR developer, have attempted the latter, you have probably also experienced…
… the pain and frustration of extending it
It’s the second day you have been trying to get that ANE to work and there is something small you are missing. It must be small, because you have followed several tutorials and it should all be working. Finally, neck-deep in Adobe’s online manuals, you wish you could move on to the important stuff: native code and the meat of your extension. And when it comes to debugging? Oh man, the number of steps you have to perform, in order to test each small change, is unbelievable…
This is where we found ourselves when we had to write our first native extension. A year and a number of native extensions later, we set ourselves a mission.
No more native extension mysteries and a single-click build environment
And here you have it: the Easy Native Extensions eBook, complete with:
- infographics to quickly show you what’s under the hood of an AIR native extension;
- tutorials to help you build your first iOS native extension in under an hour;
- single-click scripts for building, packaging and deploying your native extension in one step;
- example code, ready to build;
- guide to debugging your ActionScript and Objective-C code;
- offer for assistance with your own iOS native extension: after all, you want to build your own stuff, not endlessly tweak a Hello World example!
All of this comes in three handsome packages: Padawan, Jedi Knight and Jedi Master. We hope one of them will fit your needs.
