Flash XFL to iOS/XCODE/Interfacebuilder

677 views Asked by At

I am thinking of starting an ambitious project of writing some type of converter to convert the new Flash CS5 XFL format to some type of iOS readable format for building pages. A lot of what I do convert old Flash course over to native applications. They are usually very simple with some basic animations. Some are more complicated than others, obviously.

1) I recently found the XFL format and was wondering if anyone was doing this type of conversion?

2) Has adobe published this file specs yet? I haven't been able to find them, yet.

3) Is this even possible? Has anyone tried and been unsuccessful or would like to work together on this?

I thought of this and wonder if it is a good idea that we insert the code directly in the flash file. That means the tool is written in ActionScript, for example a utility class called SceneExporter. When you want to export a MovieClip, extends it with SceneExporter and when the Flash file runs, it exports the content of that MovieClip to a objective C code text file. Not professional way, but it should work since we have access to all child elements of that MovieClip.
