Why desktop API is not included in App42 AS3 SDK?

Question

In the past there used to be an actionscript swc file that supported App42 on desktop Air-based As3 application, but in the recent SDKs (2.6 and 2.7) its not there anymore, does that mean that App42 does not support Windows and Mac OSX?

Hello Amjad,

 

You can download the App42 AS3 SDK from here, it will contain the two sub folders under version folder which have the SDK for Mobile/Desktop and Web apps.  Mobile SDK will work for both desktop and mobile apps, if you are facing any issue then let us know the complete exception details. It will help us to provide better support to you. 

 

Thanks,

It's unlikely that my system has any network issues because I am able to call other network-driven AS3 APIs such as Facebook and other BaaS providers, App42 AS3 SDK is using REST api calls to communicate with App42 servers and I have never had any problems with any service that is using REST calls.

That being said, I'm more convinced that this issue is related to my operating system (Windows XP 32-bit) because I have tested it on Windows 7 and OSX 10.9 without any issues.

Hello Amjad,

We have recorded your request for the stated environment on our issue tracker list which you can find from the below link:
 
https://github.com/shephertz/App42-Issue-Tracker/issues/4
 
Also we recommend you to upgrade from XP to Windows 7 or higher because XP is older version of Windows and most of the advance services are not supported on it.
