Async Flash Studio (AFS) facilitates building desktop Rich Internet Applications (RIA) using flash movie files (swf), without requiring additional runtime installations. AFS allows for RIA creation outside of the browser and is compatible with Flex 3.
AFS provides good-performance actionscript API classes, supports Object-Oriented Programming, and a development environment with Flex 3. The platform includes two parts: A Flash Projector for desktop applications and an Object-oriented actionscript3 (as3) framework for asynchronous programing.
AFS brings many native window support features to the table, including transparency, styles, and the UNIQUE "Multiple Windows" support. The platform also facilitates embedded resources by ensuring that no temporary files are generated when running.
Other features include a Rich as3 File, Logging API, asynchronous, and good performance. The extension system allows for the adding of custom functions while debugging of actionscript code is possible in any authorized tools such as Flex builder.
In summary, Async Flash Studio (AFS) stands out as a great platform for developers looking to build desktop Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) based on flash movie files (swf). With its excellent performance, native window support, and Object-Oriented Programming support, AFS is highly recommended.
