This example will explore what it's like to build and test an FDT Android application. We'll use the sample project to explore projects settings and how to debug and launch on your connected device.

Accessing The Properties

Open properties.png

To access the mobile properties for you project, simple right click on the project and select 'Properties'.

Building

Properties 01.png Once inside the project properties, navigate to FDT Mobile Properties>Android. Here you'll first see the Building tab.

The Building tab is where you set the .SWF and descriptor file you wish to work with.

  1. The Enable checkbox will show the platform options.
  2. The Application descriptor associated with this platform will appear here.
  3. Changing the name of the .SWF.
  4. If you wish to change descriptor files, use the Browse button.
  5. Create a new descriptor file. This will use the descriptor file from the currently selected SDK.

Properties

Properties 02.png The properties tab will differ slightly depending on the platform you wish to use. In general, this is a GUI to edit the descriptor.xml file that is set in the Building tab.

Learn more about using descriptor files here

  1. These input fields help manage your application information on the deployed on device.
  2. This area will dynamically change depending on the selected platform. In this example, you edit Android OS permissions here.

Digital Signature

Properties 03.png Similar to the Properties' tab, this tab will be slightly different for Android and iOS. If set, FDT will use this certificate for testing (building via launcher) and for deployment. If it is left blank, FDT will generate a dummy one itself; however, it MUST be set when about to deploy to a Market place.

  1. The selected certificate and passoword are shown here.
  2. If you have an existing certificate you'd like to use, select it here.
  3. Create your certificate here.
