I am still accustomed to using "Adobe Animate" to publish ". exe. apk"

The main feature is that Adobe Animate is a visual interface that is easy and fast to operate.

joshtynjala yah, I ended up seeing that. Still.. some very strange posts. lol...

It's been too many years since I used FlashDevelop @785597448, so I can't recall the exact procedure, but I seem to recall editing the project's .bat files to adjust how it packaged (captive runtime / bundle / .air, etc).

@2dguy, there is a layer of translation @785597448 is working with, so posts may seem fairly direct, which is simply reflective of their native language.

Bink FlashDevelop has a "bat" for creating certificates and creating ". air",
But I don't know how to publish '. exe. apk' now. I understand that it seems like I need to modify 'bat' like you do, but I don't know how to modify it. I don't understand the command line? Can you share it?

I had a look at some old FlashDevleop project files.

So with respect to .air or .exe, the files I edited were:

Building .air

`bat/Packager.bat` (snippet only, not full file)

:: AIR output
if not exist %AIR_PATH% md %AIR_PATH%
set OUTPUT=%AIR_PATH%\%AIR_NAME%%AIR_TARGET%.air

:: Package
echo.
echo Packaging %AIR_NAME%%AIR_TARGET%.air using certificate %CERT_FILE%...
call adt -package %OPTIONS% %SIGNING_OPTIONS% %OUTPUT% %APP_XML% %FILE_OR_DIR%
if errorlevel 1 goto failed
goto end

`bat/PackageApp.bat` (snippet only, not full file)

set AIR_TARGET=

Building .exe

`bat/Packager.bat` (snippet only, not full file)

Building .exe (bundle)

set AIR_TARGET=-captive-runtime

The .bat files contain the adt commands and such. You can look at the actual commands it's producing there. It helps to understand them, but I wouldn't say it's strictly necessary, as FlashDevelop has done a lot of that for you already.

I've shown you above what needs modifying in the .bat files for .air and .exe builds. I don't have an Android FlashDevelop project on hand to reference for the .apk build. Can you create an Android project in FlashDevelop using a provided template? That'll probably have the necessary .bat files included.

To run the build command in FlashDevelop, if I recall, you press F6.

Bink Thank you, it seems a bit complicated.

2dguy

nah, it's only a bit perplexing the first time you get everything set up and from that point on, it's stable and very easy.
