how to find the exact version of the installed AIR SDK

The AIR SDK is usually only referenced by major and minor version number, but there are important differences in the numbers way to the right. How can I inspect my installed SDK and know for certain which exact version it is?

For the most definitive answer, directly ask AIR SDK what version it is (adt.jar is the AIR SDK's packager):

java -jar C:\air_sdk\lib\adt.jar -version

Which prints the full version number:

3.9.0.1030

How to find the adt.jar file on your system? Often you'll have an environment variable set pointing to your AIR SDK, such as AIR_HOME or AIR_SDK_FOLDER, so you can use that in your command:

Windows:

java -jar %AIR_SDK_FOLDER%\lib\adt.jar -version

Or on a Mac / Linux:

java -jar $AIR_SDK_FOLDER/lib/adt.jar -version

Open the /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/1.0/Resources/Info.plist text file and locate the CFBundleVersionentry. The corresponding string entry represents the version of AIR, for example:

CFBundleVersion 26.0.0.127

Correction to the above, it's adt, not adl to spew the version number to the commandline on Mac (and probably Windows too).

So:

%AIR_SDK_FOLDER%/bin/adt -version

If you're on Windows:

  1. Navigate to the location of the AIR SDK.
  2. Open the /bin/ subdirectory. You should see a file named adl.exe.
  3. Right-click on adl.exe and select Properties from the context menu.
  4. In the Properties dialog, click the Details tab.

The Details tab contains a property named "File Version" with a value that shows the full version of the AIR SDK (e.g., 3.5.0.1060).

If you're on a Mac (or on Windows), you could just create a bare-bones AIR app and add this line of ActionScript:

trace(NativeApplication.nativeApplication.runtimeVersion);

When you test the file in your IDE of choice, you should see the full AIR SDK version in your IDE's output panel.
