I tested the new installer on Flex SDK: Configuration: Windows 7, locale = FR - had to uninstall previous installer (2.8)
Test #1: Flex SDK 4.12 nightly installs correctly and uses ANT - run installer on Flex SDK 4.12 nightly with AIR 3.9 and FP 11.9 - Added SDK in IDEA IntelliJ 13 - Compiled and run a large Flex Web App Results: + Installation went well (lasted roughly 15 min) + App compiled and started successfully - minor: Installation log starts in French and changes to English when running ant part. Is that because of the un-localized yet properties ? - minor: "Disclaimer" label to the top left of installer window, is still in English. It usually translates as "Mentions légales" or "Informations juridiques", in the sense of "Legal disclaimer". - minor: sometimes during the install, the progress panel overflows as it displays 3 paragraphs, and the progress bar is displayed outside of the panel. Test #1b: run SDK 4.12 Installer again, to test caching Results: + installation went well, and took only 4 minutes on second run. Is caching enabled already? Test #3: Test Flex SDK 4.11 GA OK and , does not use ANT . - run installer on Flex SDK 4.11 GA with AIR 3.9 and FP 11.9 - compared directory with previous SDK 4.11 installation Results: + Installation went well (lasted 8 min). + log shows that it used old (non ANT) installation process.

I don't have a way to create Linux installers right now. The installer will hopefully become the way you install any Apache Flex release. Right now you can choose the Apache Flex SDK or an Apache FlexJS Nightly build. There are also Apache Flex Falcon Compiler Nightly builds but I'm not sure how well they work. The Installer has successfully installed a working Apache FlexJS SDK that works in Adobe Flash Builder on both Mac and Windows for me. I would love for folks to beat it up a bit so we can get ready for an official release of both the Installer and Apache FlexJS. I'm sure there are some bugs in there that need to be found and fixed. Once the SDK is installed, probably the best next step is to get the source for the DataBindingTest from http://people.apache.org/~aharui/FlexJS/DataBindingTest/bin-release/srcview / and try to build it. You will still need to follow steps 7-10 on this wiki page. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/Using+FlexJS+with+Adobe+Fl ash+Builder The wiki page install instructions will get updated once I know the installer is working for most folks. Thanks, -Alex
