hi team ,

 

we  have application source files exported   adobe air format u.

 

seeing file size differences in exported formats uisng mac and windows with same packaged source files  .

 

• when use mac , export air application observing air installer created 150mb.
• when performing same windows observing exported app application of 100 mb

 

did 1 of encounter / come across similar kind of  observations while working on adobe air applications desktop development.

 

please advise .

 

 

thanks

yes, captive runtime of air spectacularly bloated, on osx.  assume adt package target native installer?  if target instead native bundle, air framework lying in folders examine , cringe.

 

the packaged adobe air dylib goddammed 27 mb:

 

yourapp.app/contents/frameworks/adobe air.framework/versions/1.0/adobe air

adobe air: mach-o dynamically linked shared library i386

-rwxr-xr-x   1 john  staff  27574016 mar  1 23:42 adobe air

 

the fun doesn't stop there.  thing comes packed 23 mb flash player plugin, 8 mb adobecp plugin, 7 mb webkit.dylib well, along bunch of other unnecessary files , folders here:

 

yourapp.app/contents/frameworks/adobe air.framework/resources

 

i have ant task cleanup folder prior creating installer;

 

<target name="purge-macos-bundle">

 

  <fail unless="air.dir" />

 

  <delete verbose="false" file="${air.dir}/webkit.dylib" />

  <delete verbose="false" file="${air.dir}/adobecp.vch" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/adobecp15.plugin" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/flash player.plugin" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/adobecp.plugin" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/cs.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/nl.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/sv.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/tr.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/ja.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/ko.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/it.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/pt.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/es.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/fr.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/ru.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/pl.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/zh_hans.lproj" />

  <delete verbose="false" dir="${air.dir}/zh_hant.lproj" />

</target>

 

which call task this:

 

  <antcall target="purge-macos-bundle">

  <param name="air.dir" value="${bundle.dir}/contents/frameworks/adobe air.framework/versions/1.0/resources/" />

  </antcall>

 

 

this helps, don't know outrageous "adobe air" dylib.
