I've read this post which is really helpful. However I'm trying to open attachments in flex application. Is it possible? Any experience about that?

Add this to application xml and replace the ext to your extension it will work.. i add this with multiple extension support if want use ext1 also else remove that entry.

I don't think you can install an app from an email attachment and Flash isn't installed on the iPhone. So essentially, no, you can't open a Flex app from an email attachment.

  • Thanks for answear. I meant opening iOS application which was made using flex framework. – pikar Apr 24 '11 at 18:50
  • Ah, now I get it. You should look at [this link](http://iphonedevelopertips.com/cocoa/launching-other-apps-within-an-iphone-application.html) for ways to open external apps on iOS. I *believe* that you can open those applications just like you would try to load a url. I've never tried it, but it's a start. – J_A_X Apr 26 '11 at 12:54

Thanks, but I've found what I was looking for here:

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WSfffb011ac560372f-5d0f4f25128cc9cd0cb-7ffe.html#WS901d38e593cd1bac6c9d409a12e26b451be-8000

I had to prepare the proper file descriptor. Works fine.
