Demonstrated the design and implementation of SSO(single sign on) across all Android Adobe apps installed on a single device using AccountManager. Native Extensions support for FL is a programming framework that enables Actionscript code running in AVM1 or AVM2 to call and be called by native applications and libraries written in languages such as C/C++.
