ELIPS Studio is a cross-platform development environment (SDK) for native mobile handset device applications. ELIPS Studio is provided as plugin to Adobe Systems’ Flex Builder IDE that allows compilation of Applications developed in Actionscript and MXML using Adobe’s Flex framework into native code and installable application packages for iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile and Symbian devices. It also offers Actionscript APIs for accessing a smartphone’s on-device features and extra APIs for displaying native GUI widgets. ELIPS Studio was first unveiled at the Mobile World Congress exhibition in February 2009 and its beta programme was started at the Adobe MAX event in October 2009. ELIPS Studio is available as a commercial product since August 2010. As of December 15, 2011 the product has been discontinued at its CR15 release.
