Flash Lite 4 and Flex/Spark

278 Views Asked by At

I know the adobe docs doesn't say that flex and spark components are support in Flash Lite 4, but is that just because they are too heavy?

It seems to me that most of the spark components should run in Flash Lite 4.

At my company I'm in a weird situation. We have beefy computers running Flash Lite 4, so performance is much better than mobile devices.

Flash Lite 4 supports a lot of Flash Player 10 features, so I'm thinking this would work. Does anyone have a good reason why it would or wouldn't work?

Why would anyone ever want to use Flash Lite? It's hasn't been updated in like 5-6 years and was only create for 'feature phones', not today's smart phones.

And no, Flex won't work on Flash Lite because it only supports AS2, and Flex uses AS3. It's a whole different engine altogether.

As for you 'no internet' problem. You can package the latest version of Air with your application, so that internet isn't needed at all, plus you'll have better control over the environment (Air version).
