Questions tagged [mdm-zinc]

MDM Zinc is a cross-platform Rapid Application Development platform for building rich Internet applications using Adobe Flash, Adobe Flex, and C++, that can be deployed as a standalone desktop application.

Zinc allows a developer to build desktop applications in a combination of Flash and C++. Applications are compiled into native executable with an embedded Flash player for the presentation layer. Zinc is similar to Adobe AIR but does not require a runtime to be installed on the user's computer. In addition, Zinc applications are not sand boxed in the same way AIR applications are, giving the developer greater access to the underlying operating system if desired.
