Found no examples online of using Haxe + PureData together so far so I wrote a proof of concept for Android using PDCore from libpd pd-for-android to generate some noise on a droid. Open the FlashDevelop project and press Ctrl-Enter with your Android phone connected then drag the red dot around on screen.
You can download the Haxe and Java source code and FlashDevelop project from here HaxePureDataProofOfConcept.zip
It uses Haxe NME 3 and Haxe 2.09 and compiles on Win7 64bit and the apk runs on armv6 CM7 Android 2.3 so hope it works on other systems. May not be the best way to do it (could be made a NMEX for example) and probably not bug free but it makes a start and shows them working together. Will write up a more detailed description some time but the source code is there.
Some of the Haxe/Android/PureData links I have found useful are below:
Haxe NME
Getting Started
Haxe Google Groups
Creating an NME Extension
Android NME+Java
@ gigglingcorpse – lots of useful blog posts
PureData Example
Android Monkey testing – $ adb shell monkey -p your.package.name -v 500
FindBugs & PMD Java tools for Eclipse
color for logcat
FlashDevelop

Just a short single class that does pre-roll VAST video ads (Google VAST docs here). It uses the longtailvideo OVA for AS3 with more details at OVA SWC ova-as3-1.0.1.swc and the video player from here apdevblog with pre-roll and main video clips from the Test Ads at the old openx-iab-vast site. The config object is declared in the Actionscript as ‘rawConfigLocal’ for simplicity. There is a lot more that can be implemented but this is a very short and incomplete demo that might help as a starting point to have a simple example under 100 lines. The VAST XML is below too.

Spent a couple hours playing with easelJS and tried emulating something from Flash AS1 era which still needs some work but uploaded here . It uses a single Shape on the Stage with a single Graphic instance inside it which gets drawing commands in the Ticker timer producing a “Flash” type animation using only Javascript. Using JS rather than SWF means testing how different browsers display it. FF4 and Opera 11.50 labs work, FF3.6 partly works but stops after the first animation (there should be about 10 different Webdings font characters displayed one after another).

The TweetDeck Adobe Air App is a great way to manage your use of Twitter and I like it a lot but I like my lightweight Desktop Environment LXDE on Ubuntu even more. Problem is that TweetDeck and any Air Apps can run into problems if you use anything other than KDE or Gnome on Ubuntu because of the way it stores your data. There are some help files on the Adobe site but they would not work for me. But there is a solution at mindby.com where you use a shell script to pass the Gnome Keyring to the app on startup. Works perfectly and allows the wonderful TweetDeck to work on the super fast LXDE and XFCE apparently also

Added a GUI and a search facility to the previous example. The demo movie is here and the source code is here . Still needs some work to improve the GUI and performance which will be added some time.

Was asked about an updated Flash YouTube example as the previous ones were quite old and Flex based. So here is a work in progress which I will update later. Still need to add a GUI and a search facility but this is the basic version for now. It uses MVCS in RobotLegs and MinimalComps to interface with YouTube. The demo movie is here and the source code is here and the demo search was Ronettes…
Some ideas used in the code were taken from three excellent articles here and here and here
