Carol Frampton resolved FLEX-33089.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: Apache Flex 4.8 (parity release)
The Adobe AIR SDK and Adobe Flash playerglobal.swc are system requirements for
Flex. They are found via the AIR_HOME and PLAYERGLOBAL_HOME environment
variables or setting the equivalents in the env.properties file in the root of
the SDK.
> Clarify usage of playerglobal.swc and airglobal.swc

> Key: FLEX-33089
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33089
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Project Management
> Reporter: Alex Harui
> Fix For: Apache Flex 4.8 (parity release)
>
>
> As discussed in [1], Flex requires
> 1) playerglobal.swc to compile the majority of the Flex components
> 2) airglobal.swc to compile the Flex components targeted at AIR
> 3) many pieces of the AIR Integration kit which are need to do Flex mobile
> development
> We might need clarification for 3), but for now we need to find out how to
> use these files while abiding by their license requirements and complying
> with the ASF's restrictions on incompatible license
> (http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html).
> According to Alex in [1] those two files are covered by this license:
> http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf
> And it seems like they're only needed at build time, so users of Flex could
> get them independently.
