Flash to Air
Hi
I have just completed my first Flash / Web app and all is running well,
I need to now build an AIR version of the same app, is there an recommend
approach/efficient , do I simply have 2 version of the app, or do I just
need a new AIR project and some how reference the code for the Flex projects
I was looking at SRL but I cannot get my head round these, or do I just
compile the full app as a module and build 2 starts, one for WEB ons for
AIR and have both MAIN¹s load the same module
I know for mobile you need to change some of the MXML code, with Air I
assume all the code is the same

A library project is a special type of Flash Builder project that
creates a SWC instead of a SWF. The SWC can then be easily shared
between multiple projects.
I assume IntelliJ has the same type of projects.

Under the assumption that there will be differences between an AIR app
and the web version; I like to put as much as possible in a library
project. Then I can override / tweak files as needed.
If all else is the same; the you can just have two different
application files; one for the Flex app (Application) and one for the
AIR App (WindowedApplication, I Think) that instantiate your main view.

You should be able to publish as an AIR app without making any changes
to your code.
There are a few ways to handle publishing to multiple targets; its a
matter of personal preference (and which IDE you are using).
Easiest way (assuming you are using FB) is probably to create a new
project for AIR version - and in project properties->flex build
path->source path, add folder to point to src folder of your web
project. Then you only need to maintain one set of code.
