Η Adobe ανακοίνωσε ότι η 11η έκδοση του Flash Player θα
δοθεί στη δημοσιότητα μέσα στις πρώτες μέρες του Οκτωβρίου. Τότε θα διατεθεί και η έκδοση 3 του Adobe Integrated Runtime, το οποίο είναι ευρύτερα
γνωστό με τα αρχικά AIR.
Σύμφωνα με την
ανακοίνωση της εταιρίας, οι αλλαγές που φέρνουν οι Flash Player 11 και AIR 3
είναι οι εξής:
- Accelerated 2D/3D Graphics: Full hardware-accelerated rendering for 2D and
3D graphics enable 1,000 times faster rendering performance over Flash Player
10 and AIR 2.
- 64 bit: support on Windows, Mac OS and Linux.
- AIR Native Extensions: With support for thousands of highly-optimized,
open-source libraries, developers are able to tap into unique software and
hardware capabilities including access to device data, vibration control,
magnetometers, light sensors, dual screens, near field communications (NFC) and
more.
- Captive Runtime: Developers can automatically package AIR 3 with their
applications to simplify the installation process on Android, Windows and Mac
OS in addition to Apple iOS. Users no longer have to download and update AIR
separately on any of these platforms, or BlackBerry Tablet OS, which includes
AIR built in.
- Content Protection: Premium video content can now be protected using Adobe
Flash Access 3 across all supported platforms, including new support for mobile
platforms.
- HD Video Quality Across Platforms: Full frame rate HD video can now be
displayed within AIR applications on Apple iOS devices using H.264 hardware
decoding. Rich applications on televisions are also able to deliver HD video
with 7.1 channel surround sound.
- Rental and Subscriptions Support.
