The beta release provides access to the AIR 3.6 runtime and SDK for Windows, Mac OS, iOS and Android.
Below are some of the key features and benefits of AIR 3.6:
- Packaging and Loading Multiple SWFs: This feature provides developers better memory management by allowing them to load the assets they need dynamically at ANY time from multiple SWFs and not have to load it up-front.
- Shared Object storage change: Shared Objects are stored differently in AIR 3.5. (3355391) This issue is partially fixed in AIR 3.6, i.e. the shared object path will not be same as AIR 3.4, but if any user updates his application from AIR 3.4 to AIR 3.6 (without moving to AIR 3.5), then user’s data will not be lost and shared objects will be accessible like in AIR 3.4.
