ArcWeb Services creates Adobe Flash files (SWF format) using the SOAP and REST APIs. The ArcWeb Explorer JavaScript and Flex APIs use SWF files created by REST API. While it is possible to connect to ArcWeb Services using Adobe Flash Professional since it supports Web services, this development environment is not officially supported by ESRI. Adobe Flex Builder 2.0.1 can be used with the Flex API. ArcWeb Explorer is a demo application that shows the types of rich media applications that can be developed using ArcWeb Services. ArcWeb Explorer 1.0 requires Adobe Flash Player 8 or higher. ArcWeb Explorer 4.0 (Lab) requires Adobe Flash Player 9,0,28 or higher. The ArcWeb Explorer JavaScript API is for JavaScript/HTML developers. It is not designed for integration into Flash applications built using ActionScript or for integration into Adobe Flash Professional and Adobe Flex applications.
