How to use Adobe AIR to make an app using native java code in Android?

397 views Asked by At

Let me set the context - I have been tasked with refactoring an app which plays .swf files. Currently, the app is split into two apks - one which lists the files and another which plays the .swf files. The second - player APK is an Adobe AIR app developed using Flash builder, Flex and ActionScript. I've got to find a way to combine the two apps into one for convenience of end user. However, I can't find any way to do that - combining an app developed in ActionScript into java code. The Flash builder simply spits out an .apk file, but no native code.

I came across Native extensions for Adobe AIR, which I thought was the way to make Adobe AIR apps using java code, but turned out to just a way to add functionality to existing Adobe AIR apps using native code.

I found an app which is in some way using Adobe AIR's runtime to play .swf files natively in their app.

So, I'm guessing there is a way to access Adobe AIR runtime via java. However, I can't find any examples or documentation.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks.
