AS3 SecureSocket addBinaryChainBuildingCertificate not avaiable?

I want to use the addBinaryChainBuildingCertificate() method of the SecureSocket to setup a connection to a HTTPS/SSL Webservice. But this method is not avaiable inside the flash platform. I got this error: 

ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property addBinaryChainBuildingCertificate not found on flash.net.SecureSocket and there is no default value.

So I`m wondering. Is this method only avaiable when using Flash builder and Flex? I have Flash CS5 and Adobe air 3.8 installed.

I read the reference:

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/SecureSocket.html

They said you can use it, but it is not mentioned in the paragraph: "Public Methods"

It would appear to be a Air specific method. See help.adobe.com/en_US/air/reference/html/flash/net/… for details, where the method is listed as publicly available on the class. Note the distinction between window.runtime.flash.net.SecureSocket and flash.net.SecureSocket – Atriace
I installed Adobe Air 3.8 but still don't have the option. how can I integrate the package: window.runtime.flash.net.SecureSocket? – Fey

you need to compile as an App (i.e. native binary for iOS or Android) not as Flash. Not all methods and classes are available to Flash (i.e. SWF for web)
