Flash Lite Development Center for BREW Developers
About Flash Lite
Flash Lite is the profile of the Flash Player designed for mobile phones and consumer electronic devices. It enables mobile application developers and designers to create rich, engaging content and applications, and customized user interfaces across device platforms.
Flash® Lite™ 2.1 for BREW® extends Flash to the growing BREW platform from Qualcomm®, creating an exciting ecosystem for selling and distributing Flash-based content to BREW enabled handsets. Using the latest Flash development tools, Flash developers can create content and applications that can be offered direct to the consumer over-the-air using the BREW Delivery System.
Flash Lite Application and Content Distribution
With the exciting BREW marketplace opened to Flash developers, existing media can be repurposed or new applications can be designed, distributed, sold, and downloaded to a BREW handset with ease.
No longer will developers be waiting for Flash to be pre-installed on a handset before they can create content to sell to the public. The BREW platform provides the ability to download extra components, called “extensions”, to enable added functionality for the device. So, when a user selects an application or piece of content based on Flash Lite, the Flash Lite BREW extension is automatically downloaded over the air, immediately “Flash enabling” the handset. Once the Flash Lite BREW extension has been downloaded, the user will simply be able to run future content without any additional downloads.
Using an update provided for Flash Professional 8, developers will be able to take their Flash content and publish as a BREW executable. Once created, this BREW executable can be tested in the BREW Simulator, available in the BREW SDK, and transferred to a BREW device for testing.
To create necessary testing signatures and offer the Flash-based BREW content through the BREW Delivery System, developers will need to register with Qualcomm as a BREW developer here:
http://brew.qualcomm.com/brew/en/developer/resources/gs/get_auth.html
After registering with Qualcomm, you will have access to all the materials and tools to test, certify, and distribute your Flash-based BREW application.
