Re: Splitting up Flex and Air?
I'm pretty sure the 'mavenize' button will bring a huge smile to a lot of developers out there. So, once Christofer finishes his last changes I think this would be a really excellent addition to the installer. +1 from me :) On 31 January 2013 08:44, christofer.d...@c-ware.de christofer.d...@c-ware.de wrote: Hi Om, Well I think this would definitely be a cool thing.

Re: Flash Platform Whitepaper
Good thing, we did not start to rewrite flex in AS4 :) At least it proves that Adobe can change its strategic moves very quickly and 180° is always possible, even if you can't count on it of course. Does this white paper mean that theres no plan to put Air on windows 8, even in captive runtime like iOs? it would be a very bad news for Flex on short term (as a multi target SDK) if windows 8 has success and flex don't run on it. Le 30/01/2013 00:42, Alex Harui a écrit : Hi Folks, Adobe published an update to the Flash Platform Whitepaper today. Most of it doesn¹t directly affect us, but one item does: Adobe has decided to focus its future runtime development on top of the existing architecture, as opposed to a completely new architecture (Flash ³Next²) and language (ActionScript ³Next²). So Apache Flex doesn¹t have to worry about porting to a new VM/language. That should save us lots of time and distraction. Go Apache Flex!

I think in this case the version in the official distribution is not quite correct. As far as I know textlayout and osmf are not versioned the same as the FDK. Could this actually be a problem in the download+installer than in the mavenizer? However the reason for me introducing the correct versioning was that otherwise the flashplayer wouldn't be able to load signed SWFs from Adobe servers. This problem should not apply to Apache FDKs. So could someone please have a look at the versions of the libs in frameworks\rsls ... cause I think osmf and textLayout should have a different version number than the one they have in my installation.

The flip-side is that it might affect Win 8 (or rather Metro) success… That news is pretty disappointing. Of course this makes the HTML work all the more relevant… ;) Harbs On Jan 31, 2013, at 4:23 PM, sébastien Paturel wrote: Good thing, we did not start to rewrite flex in AS4 :) At least it proves that Adobe can change its strategic moves very quickly and 180° is always possible, even if you can't count on it of course. Does this white paper mean that theres no plan to put Air on windows 8, even in captive runtime like iOs? it would be a very bad news for Flex on short term (as a multi target SDK) if windows 8 has success and flex don't run on it.

Most of it doesn¹t directly affect us, but one item does: Adobe has decided to focus its future runtime development on top of the existing architecture, as opposed to a completely new architecture (Flash ³Next²) and language (ActionScript ³Next²). So Apache Flex doesn¹t have to worry about porting to a new VM/language. That should save us lots of time and distraction. Go Apache Flex!

RE: Flash Platform Whitepaper

However if you're not on the compatibility list it will show up for the desktop, but not the Modern UI.

Windows 8 (Intel based processors, or desktops), are still supported. I'm not surprised by this move. I see it more as a wait-and-see than anything else. Windows 8 RT has a *very* low take rate right now. If they are not supporting Linux, then not supporting Windows 8 RT is a no-brainer, at this time. I'm sure if Windows 8 RT becomes more popular they will re-evaluate which platforms they want to support. -Nick

Reporter: Erik Thomas The spark VideoDisplay will not stream video from FMS 4.5, instead it appears to do progressive download instead, and it buffers the file for about one minute before it begins to play. However, the same code running in FlashPlayer on web, or in an AIR mobile simulator, the video properly streams and displays within seconds of playing. I understand VideoDisplay is not optimized for mobile, but that should not cause this behavior. I am in the process of debugging the spark codebase to find the root cause, but so far have been unsuccessful. So I attached a project that displays this behavior. Just unzip the file to a directory, start FB and point the workspace to the directory, open the project, build and run it first in an AIR simulator for an iOS mobile device, you'll see video instantly. Then deploy it in debug or release to an actual device. When you launch the project, you have to wait approximately a minute before the video will start playing. I'm assuming it's failing over to progressive download from streaming in some way, but I really have no idea what is causing the issue. I really don't care if the performance of the VideoDisplay isn't optimized for mobile, and a delayed start of several seconds would be fine, but one minute?

The only problem is that if you want to use a different Air SDK. Currently the adt of the original FDK is used, but it should be the version shipped with the desired Air SDK version. That's what I'm intending on doing. The only change you should need to use that updated version with FM would be that you need to add a compiler artifact for the Flex-SDK as well as one additional Air-SDK compiler artifact.

Hi Chris, I'm doing an AIR App, so let me know when you update FM pls, like that I can test it, btw, do you mind if I update the mavenizer as when the Flex build number is 0, instead of having a version number + '.0', I put version number + -SNAPSHOT ?

However if you're not on the compatibility list it will show up for the desktop, but not the Modern UI. Flash Player release and debug players are available and supported for Windows 8 Desktop and Modern UI experiences on both x86/64 and ARM platforms. Flash content not on the compatibility view list will not be displayed within Modern UI style Internet Explorer on Windows 8
Re: A code name for Apache Flex 5?
Exactly. I totally agree. -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- From: Carol Frampton Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 3:38 AM To: dev@flex.apache.org Subject: Re: A code name for Apache Flex 5?

[FalconJx] initial Closure Compiler support added
Hi, Just wanted to let you know I just checked in the initial support for JS code optimization using the 'Google Closure Compiler' for the FalconJx compiler. Usage: call 'mxmlc(.bat)' of FalconJx on the command line using the following four arguments: -js-output-type=GOOG -vanilla-sdk-lib=[PathToVanillaSDK] -closure-lib=[PathToGoogleClosureLibrary] [PathToYourProjectMainASFile] If you use '-js-output-type=GOOG', all output will be redirected to two new directories in the AS project directory: 'js-intermediate' and 'js-release'. The former will contain a plain JS version, with all the needed libraries and support code. The latter will contain a unified, optimized and minified JS file (all used library code is integrated), a simple HTML file, a list of 'compiled' JS files (for reference) and a source map. This source map is not yet properly linked to the JS. More info on how to obtain the two required libraries can be found in the README of the ASJS Publisher. I've only been able to test on a Mac (10.8) and with the VanillaSDK prototype AS project, so your mileage may vary. I'll be out of office for the next week or so; if you need me, feel free to send someone to get me on the pistes of Alpe d'Huez ;-) Have fun!

From the different failed build reports I have seen, it happened in few stage-somethings targets but I've no clue why, my fix doesn't affect that from far, it remove the in folder. -Fred -Message d'origine- From: Justin Mclean Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 11:45 PM To: dev@flex.apache.org Subject: Re: makeApacheFlexForFlashBuilder.bat Hi, I you been able to confirm what happened ?

Falcon MXML progress
Today I added parser unit tests that create MXMLBindingNode, which represents a Binding tag MXMLDesignLayerNode, which represents a DesignLayer tag MXMLImplementsNode, which represents an implements='...' attribute on a class definition tag MXMLPrivateNode, which represents a Private tag MXMLResourceNode, which represents a @Resource(bundle=..., key=...) compiler directive I also added infrastructure to support the Repeater tag, including a new node, MXMLRepeaterNode. - Gordon
