as a result, the performance of Adobe AIR applications running on BlackBerry tablet devices is outstanding, and RIM has built specific libraries accessible to ActionScript for deep integration within the operating system This book walks you through the creation of your first Adobe AIR application using the Flex 4.5 framework and provides examples of how to interact with the device’s components These include the GPS unit, camera, gallery, accelerometer, multi-touch display, and the StageWebView, Operating System interactions, native components, and more Who This Book Is For Developing BlackBerry Tablet OS Applications with Adobe Flex 4.5 targets developers of every skill level It starts with a basic Hello World application and then quickly moves to more complicated examples where the BlackBerry Tablet OS APIs are explored Who This Book Is Not For This book is not for developers who are interested in developing native BlackBerry applications This book only provides examples of BlackBerry Tablet OS application development using Adobe Flex 4.5 and ActionScript Conventions Used in This Book The following typographical conventions are used in this book: vii www.it-ebooks.info Menu options Menu options are shown using the → character, such as File→Open Italic Italic indicates new terms, URLs, email addresses, filenames, and file extensions Constant width This is used for program listings, as well as within paragraphs to refer to program elements such as variable or function names, databases, data types, environment variables, statements, and keywords Constant width bold This indicates commands or other text that should be typed literally by you Constant width italic This indicates text that should be replaced with user-supplied values or values determined by context This Book’s Example Files You can download the example files for this book from this location: http://examples.oreilly.com/9781449305567-files/ Where necessary, multiple code samples are provided for each recipe to correspond with the different development environments Each sample will be separated into a folder for the specific environment Each application should include the needed code for your environment as well as an application descriptor file Using the Code Examples This book is here to help you get your job done In general, you may use the code in this book in your programs and documentation You not need to contact us for permission unless you’re reproducing a significant portion of the code For example, writing a program that uses several chunks of code from this book does not require permission In addition, answering a question by citing this book and quoting example code does not require permission However, selling or distributing a CD-ROM of examples from O’Reilly books does require permission Incorporating a significant amount of example code from this book into your product’s documentation does require permission We appreciate, but not require, attribution An attribution usually includes the title, author, publisher, and ISBN For example: “Developing BlackBerry Tablet Applications with Flex 4.5 by rich Tretola (O’Reilly) Copyright 2011 Rich Tretola, 978-1-449-30556-7.” If you think your use of code examples falls outside fair use or the permission given here, feel free to contact us at permissions@oreilly.com viii | Preface www.it-ebooks.info ...www.it-ebooks.info Developing BlackBerry Tablet Applications with Flex 4.5 www.it-ebooks.info www.it-ebooks.info Developing BlackBerry Tablet Applications with Flex 4.5 Rich Tretola Beijing... components, and more Who This Book Is For Developing BlackBerry Tablet OS Applications with Adobe Flex 4.5 targets developers of every skill level It starts with a basic Hello World application and... • Cambridge • Farnham • Köln • Sebastopol • Tokyo www.it-ebooks.info Developing BlackBerry Tablet Applications with Flex 4.5 by Rich Tretola Copyright © 2011 Rich Tretola All rights reserved
