Adobe Apollo No Longer Up in the AIR


By David Rubinstein
June 11, 2007 — 
Adobe Systems today is giving a glimpse of the next generation of its rich Internet application offering with the release of the first public beta of a new desktop client runtime and the beta release of the Flex 3 development framework.

Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR) is the formal name given to the Apollo project, and it now has transparent HTML support—meaning developers can move beyond the browser chrome to create a custom look-and-feel for Web applications. It also now has multiple window support and drag-and-drop capability. SQL Lite is part of the runtime, so data can be cached there. The desktop client gives users the ability to work on applications offline, to read and write files to disk, and to tie in system notifications, among many other advantages over the browser, according to Adobe AIR senior product manager Mike Downey.

The Flex 3 framework utilizes the new Lifecycle ES Data Services (formerly Flex Data Services) to synchronize AIR data with the remote server. Also now is the inclusion of an AIR debugger in Flex Builder, the design tool; application packaging and signing for Flex applications to deploy on AIR; code refactoring tools; and the ability to cache the Flex framework inside the Flash Player.
