Adobe AIR to execute program



I would like to press a button from an Adobe AIR application and execute some installed program. For example, I would have a button named "Start Winamp". When this is pressed it should start Winamp.exe directly...I don't want some command line thing executed, I only want an exe to start. Or...is it the same thing ? Please, let me know if this is possible.

There's no direct way of doing it. Try CommandProxy.

Read the blog post very carefully. You really need to create two different projects: a native OS executable and an AIR app. The native executable fires up your AIR application. The AIR application in turn requests for the executable to process OS-level requests.

Download the source from Google Code and create two projects -- a Visual Studio/Mono for the sample C# exe and another -- for the AIR application. Here is a link that describes how to set up the former.

In your AIR app's main MXML file, you need to do the following:

  • Create a CommandProxy object, add a few event listeners, for connection detection, and Command response and error.

  • Connect to the native exe via a connect call

  • In the event handler for connect, create a new Command e.g. ScreenshotCommand and execute it (via CommandProxy.execute method)
