IsDateValid equivalent function (Adobe AIR)

Hello,

What is the equivalent of 'IsDateValid' function for AS3/Adobe Air ?

Thanks

Hello,

I am waiting for the reply. Is it like you don't have this function in AS3/Adobe Air ? Could not find it anywhere. If this is not available how should I check if the license is still under the valid time frame comparing to the custom Date/Time license field in AS3.

Thanks

We haven't added the IsDateValid() function to adobe AIR yet. You can, however, verify the date/time directly in your code by parsing the date/time string using the "Date.parse()" function in actionscript: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/Date.html#parse()

Let me know if that helps.

That works, but makes more work. I was hoping Adobe Air also getting the same place as other languages, despite it being a little different.

Can we get more than one license field at once with GetFeatureValue or some other functions ?

Thanks

Anything we do for the other languages requires about 40x the amount of work to do the same in Adobe AIR. It's a really poorly designed language, unfortunately.

We do support it and we will bring it up to par with the other languages we support.

Nope, you can only read single values at a time. But the algorithm we use is very fast (so getting the values when you need them is as fast or faster than getting all the values and then reading from *that* list).

There is no verified trial for Adobe Air and I believe nothing is there for the verified License part as well. How can I make sure the user does not manipulate with their system date. I want to provide a license for a month and stop if it is not renewed. Now, they can buy a license for a month and then easily manipulate a date and never cross the expired date. Do you have any provision to stop this for Adobe Air ? I know this can be done in other languages.

Thanks

Hello,

I am sorry if my question is funny or irrelevant. I read somewhere in the forum that you still don't support verified trial for Adobe Air. Can you please answer my previous question and let me know the best way to use this feature in Adobe Air.

Thanks

Verified trials for adobe Air is coming sometime in 2017. No hard date yet. We have a few things that are higher priority.

You should clearly state this somewhere on your website. This is misleading for Adobe Air developers. Waste of time and money.

The TurboActivate library works with any language, including adobe Air. And we provide "integration examples" with many of the major languages. So, you can use verified trials with adobe Air, but you would have to update the integration example yourself (at least until we do that work for you).

Unfortunately Adobe Air has all but been abandoned by Adobe (no real significant updates to the language or the tools in about 4 or 5 years -- just minor bug fixes). If Adobe Air was in a good place, it would be no big deal, but their language needs quite a bit of work to be a 1st class programming language / framework.
