Other than Adobe products, SWFs can be built with open source Motion-Twin ActionScript 2 Compiler ( MTASC ), the open source Ming library and the free software suite SWFTools.

Application developers use MXML in combination with ActionScript to develop rich Internet applications, with products such as Adobe Flex.

It can contain chunks of ActionScript code, either when creating the body of an event handler function, or with data binding where the curly braces (

Coinciding with the release of Flex 2, Adobe introduced a new version of the ActionScript programming language, known as Actionscript 3, reflecting the latest ECMAScript specification.

* ActionScript, a programming language originally developed by Macromedia and currently by Adobe for developing Flash and Flex applications

ActionScript is an object-oriented language originally developed by Macromedia Inc. ( now owned by Adobe Systems ).

ActionScript was initially designed for controlling simple 2D vector animations made in Adobe Flash ( formerly Macromedia Flash ).

Adobe AIR supports ActionScript, in addition to some extended contents, such as the Stage3D engine Adobe has developed.

ActionScript on Adobe AIR has also increased efficiency and popularity because of its versatility of being able to run on many interfaces.

Some well-known examples for the code on demand paradigm on the web are Java applets, Adobe ’ s ActionScript language for the Flash player, and JavaScript: The program code lies inactive on a web server until a user ( client ) requests a web page that contains a link to the code using the client's web browser.

ActionScript 3. 0 forms the foundation of the Flex 2 API.

The use of ActionScript 3 and Flex 2 requires version 9 or later of the Flash Player runtime.

The ColdFusion MX 7. 0. 2 release adds updated Flash Remoting to support ActionScript 3, a Flex Data Services event gateway, and the Flex Data Services assembler.

Some current prototype-oriented languages are ECMAScript ( and its implementations JavaScript, JScript and Flash's ActionScript ), Cecil, NewtonScript, Io, MOO, REBOL, and Lisaac.

Two important features of ActionScript that distinguish it from later versions are its loose type system and its reliance on prototype-based inheritance.

The ActionScript 3 Eval Library and the D. eval API are ongoing development projects to create equivalents to in ActionScript 3.

Client-side scripting languages like JavaScript or ActionScript, used for Dynamic HTML ( DHTML ) and Flash technologies respectively, are frequently used to orchestrate media types ( sound, animations, changing text, etc.
