AIR 2.0 Enhancements Overview
by Elad Elrom
In the last chapter, we gave you a quick overview of building applications with AIR. AIR 2.0 adds new
capabilities that tie in better with the operation systems. The new version of AIR gives your application
more control while increasing performance.
The new version will be deployed on Flash Player 10 using Flex 4 SDK (see Figure 5-1). The new features
can be split into the following four main categories:
New functionality
Additional functionality to existing APIs
Platform awareness related to APIs
Optimization
