Native Dialogs - Adobe air Native Extension

No projects on the IOS platform (No IOS developers licence) causes that I can not continue working on this project. If you are interested in the development of this project (or any other of my projects), pleas donate for the purchase of the license. The major change in the project will be support of IOS6, IOS simulator and minor fixes.

#####Changes (from commit cac11f3):

SystemProperties is now a singelton and requires getInstance() and dispose() calls before exiting the app
NativeAlert.badge moved to SystemProperties
NativeAlert better handling close event on static show() method
fixed all .defaultTheme problems
changed index values on dialogs on Android (now similar to IOS)
added platform.xml (linking options)
changed isNetworkActivityIndicatorSupported() and isNetworkActivityIndicator() function name!

Checked iOS 5.1 / android 2.3/3.1

See more info here

See compiled demo APK on You're android device

This extension enables showing native dialogs within a Air based project.

#####Available themes for android:

ANDROID_DEVICE_DEFAULT_DARK_THEME
ANDROID_DEVICE_DEFAULT_LIGHT_THEME
ANDROID_HOLO_DARK_THEME
ANDROID_HOLO_LIGHT_THEME
DEFAULT_THEME

NativeAlert (IOS/Android/Windows)

Android and iOS: Displays a native alert dialog.

iOS only: setting the badge of the app

NativeAlert.defaultTheme = NativeAlert.ANDROID_DEVICE_DEFAULT_DARK_THEME;// not necessary
if(NativeAlert.isSuported)
NativeAlert.show( "some message" , "title" , "first button label" , "otherButtons,LabelsSeperated,WithAComma" , someAnswerFunction);

NativeAlert.dispose(); //only when exiting app
private function someAnswerFunction(event:NativeDialogEvent):void{
	//event.preventDefault(); // default behavior is to remove listener for function "someAnswerFunction()"
	trace(event.toString());
}

NativeProgress (Android / IOS)

Android and iOS: The ability to display the native dialog showing a progress bar or a spinner.

NativeProgress for IOS by memeller

Available themes for IOS:

iOS only: The ability to show and hide the native status-bar networki busy indicator.

if(NativeProgress.isNetworkActivityIndicatorSupported())
	NativeProgress.showNetworkActivityIndicator(true);

Usage:

private var progressPopup:NativeProgress;
private var p:int = 0;
private var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(100);
protected function openProgressPopup(style:int):void
{
		progressPopup = new NativeProgress(style);
	progressPopup.setSecondaryProgress(45);
	progressPopup.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,closeNativeProcessHandler);
	progressPopup.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,traceEvent);
	progressPopup.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED,closeNativeProcessHandler);
	progressPopup.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,onError);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
	progressPopup.theme = ThemeSelector.selectedItem.data;
	progressPopup.setMax(50);
	progressPopup.setTitle(titleInput.text);
	progressPopup.setMessage(messageInput.text);
	progressPopup.show(canclebleCheckbox.selected,indeterminateInput.selected);
	myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, updateProgress);
	myTimer.start();
}

private function closeNativeProcessHandler(event:Event):void
{
 		progressPopup.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,closeNativeProcessHandler);
 		progressPopup.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED,closeNativeProcessHandler);
 		progressPopup.removeEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,onError);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
 		progressPopup.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,traceEvent);

	progressPopup.dispose();//before kill()
 		myTimer.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,updateProgress);
 		myTimer.stop();
		p = 0;
}
private function updateProgress(event:TimerEvent):void
{
		p++;
		if(p>=50){
			p = 0;
			progressPopup.hide();
		(event.target as Timer).stop();
		}else
		progressPopup.setProgress(p);
	}

protected function viewBackKeyPressedHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
		event.preventDefault();
 		myTimer.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,updateProgress);
 		myTimer.stop();
 		p = 0;
 		if(progressPopup){
    		progressPopup.hide("some message");
 		}
}

NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.EXITING,exiting);

protected function exiting(event:Event):void
{

    		progressPopup.dispose();//before kill()
}

private var buttons:Vector.<String>;
private var checkedItems:Vector.<Boolean>;
private var selectedIndex:int = -1;

protected function view1_viewActivateHandler(event:ViewNavigatorEvent):void
{
	choces = new Vector.<String>();
	//the text of the items to be displayed in the list.
  		choces.push("one","two","three","four");
  		checkedItems = new Vector.<Boolean>();  
	// specifies which items are checked. It should be null in which case no items are checked. If non null it must be exactly the same length as the array of items.
  		checkedItems.push(true,false,false,true);
  		buttons = new Vector.<String>();
	//the labels for the buttons. It should be null in which case there will be only one button "OK". If non null max length 3 buttons
  		buttons.push("OK","Settings","Cancle");
}
protected function openMultiChoiceDialog(event:MouseEvent):void
{
	multChDialog = new NativeListDialog();
		multChDialog.theme = NativeListDialog.ANDROID_DEVICE_DEFAULT_LIGHT_THEME;
		
  		multChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,closeNativeDialogHandler);
  		multChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,traceEvent);
  		multChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED,closeNativeDialogHandler);
  		multChDialog.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,onError);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
 		multChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogListEvent.LIST_CHANGE,onListChange);
 		
  		multChDialog.setTitle(titleInput.text); // before title ="Some Title"; - can change while in popup
  		multChDialog.setCancelable(canclebleCheckbox.selected);// before cancleble = true;- can change while in popup
  		multChDialog.buttons = buttons;//before in show method
  		multChDialog.showMultiChoice(choces,checkedItems);
}
public function openSingleChoiceDialog(event:MouseEvent):void
{
	singleChDialog = new NativeListDialog();
	singleChDialog.theme = NativeListDialog.ANDROID_DEVICE_DEFAULT_LIGHT_THEME;
	singleChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,closeNativeDialogHandler);
	singleChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,traceEvent);
	singleChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED,closeNativeDialogHandler);

	singleChDialog.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,onError);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
	
	singleChDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogListEvent.LIST_CHANGE,onListChange);
	singleChDialog.setCancelable(canclebleCheckbox.selected);// before cancleble = true;- can change while in popup
	singleChDialog.buttons = buttons;//before in show method
	singleChDialog.setTitle(titleInput.text); // before title ="Some Title"; - can change while in popup
	singleChDialog.showSingleChoice(choces,selectedIndex);
}
public function closeNativeDialogHandler(event:NativeDialogEvent):void
{
	var dialog:NativeListDialog = (event.target  as NativeListDialog);
	dialog.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,closeNativeDialogHandler);
	dialog.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED,closeNativeDialogHandler);
	dialog.removeEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,traceEvent);
	dialog.removeEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,onError);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
	dialog.dispose();//before kill()
}
private function onListChange(event:NativeDialogListEvent):void
{
		var dialog:NativeListDialog = (event.target as NativeListDialog)
	if(dialog.selectedIndex>-1){
		selectedIndex = dialog.selectedIndex;
	}else{
		const a:Vector.<String> = dialog.selectedLabels;
		if(a.length>0){
			for (var i:int = 0; i < a.length; i++) 
			{
				trace(a[i]);
			}
		}
	}
}

		textInputDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CANCELED,trace);
		textInputDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.OPENED,trace);
		textInputDialog.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR,trace);// changed from NativeExtensionErrorEvent
		textInputDialog.addEventListener(NativeDialogEvent.CLOSED, onTextInputDialogClosedHandler);//before NativeTextInputDialogEvent

		var v:Vector.<NativeTextField> = new Vector.<NativeTextField>();
			
		var ti1:NativeTextField = new NativeTextField(null);
		ti1.text ="enter name and password:";
		ti1.editable = false;
		v.push(ti1);

		ti2.text = "77799";
		v.push(ti2);
			
		textInputDialog.show(titleInput.text,v,buttons);
	}
}
private function onTextInputDialogClosedHandler(event:NativeDialogEvent):void // before NativeTextInputDialogEvent
{
	for each (var n:NativeTextField in event.list)

}

	} 
	dictionary = null;
	
	
	
	if(SystemPropertie.isIOS()){
		trace(SystemProperties.getInstance().canOpenUrl("http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-37.812022,144.969277"));
