Employee Directory Sample Application Using Flex and AIR for Android – Updated for Froyo

July 20, 2010 By 9 Comments

I finally took the time to rebuild the Employee Directory application with the latest version of AIR for Android (available here) to run on Froyo. See the links below to download the apk and the source code. (If you are still running Eclair see my original post).

The Employee Directory application demonstrates how to build Flex applications for Android using the AIR runtime.

Watch the video:

The key point when you look at the source code of this application is that you build Flex applications for Android the exact same way you build Flex applications for the Browser and the Desktop: same programming model, same language, same tools, same code. This application for example uses a local SQLite database on your device that you access using the same database API you’d use for any other Flex application running on the AIR runtime.

The other good news is that you have access to additional APIs (GPS, accelerometer), and you can integrate with other applications on your phone (dialer, SMS, email, etc).

Download the Application and Source Code

  • You can download the application (EmployeeDirectory.apk) here
  • You can download the source code (EmployeeDirectory.fxp project file) here

    w00t! It isn’t a real flash product until it has the employee directory app ported to it.

    I think you need the application permission from now on. The EmployeeDirectory-app.xml would be something like:

    EmployeeDirectory
    EmployeeDirectory
    Employee Directory
    1.0.0
    mobileDevice

    EmployeeDirectory.swf
    true
    <!– true –>
