If you don't feel up to writing your own ANE (or you do and want more information on how to go about it) check out the Adobe Native Extension page (opens in new tab).ДЄdding a Native Extension is as simple as adding it to the Flash documents Library path. This means that if you need to access the vibration function of a device or send a notification via the inbuilt notification system you can just add in the relevant ANE and use ActionScript to send and receive data.

Native Extensions are compiler code that is written in the native language of the target device, which forms a bridge that you can access to interact with specific features or hardware that isn't directly supported by AIR.

Native extensions in Flash Pro CS6ДЄnother new feature is support for Native Extensions. In testing this works pretty well and gives you a way to test your content before moving it on to a device to continue more in-depth testing. In the past this had been assigned to a separate application - Device Central. The inclusion of a simulator for testing touch gestures, geo-location and accelerometer functionality directly in Flash Professional is another area of improvement.

You can now remotely debug content running on iOS as well as content running on Android from within Flash Pro CS6 making it easy to step through your code and set breakpoint to see exactly what it going on within your application or game. Thankfully Adobe has taken all of the feedback from its user base on board and made debugging and testing both locally and remotely far user-friendlier. Giving you access to touch gestures, geo-location and moreДebugging content created using AIR on devices has always been a bit hit and miss in Flash Pro. It is worth pointing out that you will still need to download those versions of AIR that you wish to target as this panel just makes linking AIR to Flash Professional easier. To achieve this Adobe has provided a panel for managing the version(s) of AIR that is accessible to Flash Pro CS6.

The first of these is the ability to easily update the Adobe AIR SDK. To allow you to keep up to date Adobe has added new features to help keep you ahead of this curve (so to speak). While AIR has been supported in previous versions it has be rather awkward to update or debug / test your AIR applications - especially when on a mobile device like an Android or iOS phone or tablet.ДЄlso given the diversity of devices that are currently available and coming to the market, new or specific features do appear that you may need to access. Working with devicesДЄnother big improvement in this version of Adobe Flash Pro is AIR integration and support.

This is a great feature and, while it is primarily aimed at game developers, it does provide another approach to asset generations for use within Flash based solutions as well as other technologies. The various frameworks that you can export to (opens in new tab)ДЄdobe has taken the lead with the new sprite sheet functionality by providing flexibility to export your graphics for use in not only Starling (a Flash 2D game framework), but also easelJS, JSON, JSON-Array (all useful when developing HTML 5 games) as well as Sparrow and Cocos2D (popular iOS game frameworks). Even if you're not a game developer the improvements in workflow and enhancements to the overall feature set of Flash Pro CS6 make this a worthwhile upgrade. Is it worth upgrading from Flash Professional CS5 or CS5.5? Yes, if you are looking for a tool that provides you with the ability to export your animations for use in not only Flash Player, but also other platforms both in the browser and on various devices. Providing the workflow and extensibility to allow Adobe Flash Pro CS6 to offer not only content targeted at Flash Player, but also HTML5 both through the new sprite sheet export, exporting of animations as PNG sequences and the integration of CreateJS via a free to download extension from. With Adobe embracing gaming it clearly intends to make Flash Player and Flash Professional central to that story. While some may complain that there aren't that many 'big ticket' additions to Adobe Flash Pro CS6 those additions that have made it into this version happen to be very big indeed.
