No _ in air id for the application file

Posted on March 1, 2008 by Carly (Admin)

I’m putting a sample together for a question that was asked at the Brisbane flex/air launch.

I called the project air_photodemo which puts that as the ID for the app file.
<id>air_photodemo</id>
The compiler was throwing an invalid application descriptor: invalid application identifier

Change the id to <id>airphotodemo</id> and compiler is happy.

Thought I would post as it stumped me for a few min.
