To run it 1.14 +you can use the command 1.15 + 1.16 + $ /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/<Application name>/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/<Application name>/ 1.17 + 1.18 + 1.19 +Making it executable 1.20 +-------------------- 1.21 + 1.22 +You can also make an executable by creating a file in /usr/local/bin: 1.23 + 1.24 + #!/usr/bin/sh 1.25 + /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/<Application name>/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/<Application name>/ 1.26 + 1.27 +The app might need parameters (voddler) so then the script can look like: 1.28 + 1.29 + #!/usr/bin/sh 1.30 + /opt/adobe-air-sdk/bin/adl -nodebug /opt/airapps/<Application name>/META-INF/AIR/application.xml /opt/airapps/<Application name>/ -- ${@} 1.31 + 1.32 +Then chmod the file so that it can execute: 1.33 + 1.34 + $ chmod +x filename 1.35 + 1.36 +Now you have installed an application in AIR. Yes it is this silly :P 1.37 + 1.38 + 1.39 +Removing the application 1.40 +------------------------ 1.41 + 1.42 +Delete the application folder in `/opt/airapps`. Also delete the executable if 1.43 +you created one. 1.44 + 1.45 + 1.46 +Running binaries that use AIR 1.47 +----------------------------- 1.48 + 1.49 +Some applications using Adobe AIR can come with their own binaries included. In 1.50 +this case, it's often better to run these binaries, rather than bypassing them 1.51 +using adl, to not lose any extra functionality these binaries might provide. 1.52 +These binaries will require some work however, before they can be used with the 1.53 +Adobe AIR SDK. 1.54 + 1.55 +First of all, binaries will look for Adobe AIR, rather than the Adobe AIR SDK. 1.56 +There seems to be no way to change where to look, so you're going to have to 1.57 +symlink the Adobe AIR runtime provided with the SDK to the default location 1.58 +that binaries follow: 1.59 + 1.60 + # ln -s /opt/adobe-air-sdk/runtimes/air/linux/Adobe\ AIR/ /opt/Adobe\ AIR 1.61 + 1.62 +With this, the binaries should be able to detect your Adobe AIR installation. 1.63 +It will leave you with two Adobe AIR folders in /opt, which is dirty but there 1.64 +seems to be no way around this for now. 1.65 + 1.66 +Another problem you'll run into is that whenever the AIR runtime starts a 1.67 +process, it'll check whether you have accepted the EULA, something that is not 1.68 +included with the SDK. Since it can't determine that you did, it then tries to 1.69 +run the Adobe AIR Updater, which is ALSO not included in the SDK runtime, 1.70 +causing the binary to fail and hang. To avoid this you're going to have to 1.71 +manually accept the EULA. 1.72 + 1.73 +Warning: By creating the following file you are most likely accepting the 1.74 +[Adobe AIR End User License Agreement](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/air_eula.html). 1.75 +Make sure to read this agreement, and do not perform this work-around if you do 1.76 +not agree with it. 1.77 + 1.78 + 1.79 +To manually accept the EULA, use this command: 1.80 + 1.81 + echo -n 2 > ~/.appdata/Adobe/AIR/eulaAccepted 1.82 + 1.83 +After this, you should clear the check and the binary should run normally. 1.84 + 1.85 +--- 1.86 + 1.87 +This information has been shamelessly copied from this page: 1.88 +https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Adobe_AIR 1.89 + 1.90 +Content is available under GNU Free Documentation License 1.3 or later unless 1.91 +otherwise noted.
