Hi Nick,


Companies using Apache Flex that wouldn't mind their logo on the website


Format ? size ? etc...


Getting started guides in regard to Flex...  These could be in the form

of videos (Adobe TV?), Articles (ADC? Other Magazines?), in-depth blog
posts, etc.

A good start for newbies could be 
https://code.google.com/p/masuland/wiki/LoginExample , that's a guide for

Hey everybody!

I was wondering if somebody (or a group of people) could help me collect
the following for the new website to fill in some holes :
- Companies using Apache Flex that wouldn't mind their logo on the website
- Getting started guides in regard to Flex...  These could be in the form
of videos (Adobe TV?), Articles (ADC? Other Magazines?), in-depth blog
posts, etc.
- A good description of what Flex really is, and how it works.  I have a
start I snagged from Adobe's old site.

These are to go on the new website.  I would appreciate the help.

Re: [FalconJx] AS test for -Infinity failing

2013-01-08 Thread Michael Schmalle


Quoting Erik de Bruin e...@ixsoftware.nl:


What worries me is not that the test fails (per se), but the way in
which it fails... It seems that '-Infinity' is completely left out of
the 'compiled' string. It vanishes. Is that a byproduct of using the
'wrong' test (visitVariable) or something deeper?


Can you paste your test method so I have some context?

So this is correct that - adds the IdentifierNode node in a
UnaryOperatorMinusNode.

To test it, you need to call visitUnaryOperator(node).

Quoting Michael Schmalle apa...@teotigraphix.com:


Well, that makes sense because unless -Infinity is a true constant, - is
the unary operator to the constant Infinity. Might want to look that up in
the definition.

Looking through the code now, Infinity is not considered a Literal, so I
need to do some more research on that.

I am working on adding tests for all AS language features and one of

The AS test I wrote for 'Infinity' passes, but when I add the '-' in

In the file frameworks\projects\advancedgrids\bundles\pt_PT\olap.properties, 
line 25 it reads:

progressMessage=A processar a inha de dados: [[0]] de [[1]]

But it should be

progressMessage=A processar a linha de dados: [[0]] de [[1]]

Because 'linha' means row and 'inha' means 'ow'.

in the next release (post Apache Flex 4.9) of Apache Flex.

I've installed Apache Flex 4.9 for use within Flash Builder 4.7 and cannot

The currently selected Flex SDK requires minimum Adobe Flash Player version 
11.1.0.

I know that this is a new feature of this SDK (to target 10.2-11.5) but cannot 
seem to do it through this software. If there is something that needs to be 
modified, I do not see instructions in the release notes.

I will discuss timing with Sally and see what feedback she has. In my mind, 
this PR provides information about a release than was made on 12-27-12 and it 
provides news that we are a TLP. The site mirrors and resources have been 
upgrading and we are finding errors on some of the drives  revised error 
messages.so, this week or next week is just about the earliest we could 
send this info out.

I do not think we should. Mentioning that we are publishing a redesigned

 It should pretty much work like the pages on the old site.  If you want the
 fancy header (with the line underneath), instead of the more static one,
 you need to wrap your h4 tags in a div class=headline

[jira] [Commented] (FLEX-33346) Can only target Flash Player 11.1 in Flash Builder

2013-01-08 Thread JIRA

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33346?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanelfocusedCommentId=13547208#comment-13547208
 ] 

Frédéric THOMAS commented on FLEX-33346:


It appears from a quick off list talk that you should tweak yourself the 
flex-config.xml.

But that raises the question of where to document that, or if the SDK has to be 
set with this minimum version at release time.

 Can only target Flash Player 11.1 in Flash Builder
 --

 Key: FLEX-33346
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33346
 Project: Apache Flex
  Issue Type: Bug
  Components: Versioning
Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.9.0
 Environment: Windows 7 x64 - Flash Builder 4.7
Reporter: Joseph Labrecque

 I've installed Apache Flex 4.9 for use within Flash Builder 4.7 and cannot 
 specify any target Flash player version below 11.1:
 The currently selected Flex SDK requires minimum Adobe Flash Player version 
 11.1.0.
 I know that this is a new feature of this SDK (to target 10.2-11.5) but 
 cannot seem to do it through this software. If there is something that needs 
 to be modified, I do not see instructions in the release notes.

On windows you would use bin\mxmlc.bat.  We can not have executables in
the Apache source tree.  The old exe file did the same thing the bat file
is doing now.

README and RELEASE_NOTES file names

Any reason the README and RELEASE_NOTES in dist have been renamed READme.txt

Archive copies from dist every 24 hours or so, so it should have 4.9.  4.8
is not out there, and I haven't found out whether it should be since it
isn't an official release.  But it is in archive.a.o/dist/incubator/flex

Hi,

 Wasn't that because the HTTPd was hiding them from the index pages?

It does hide README (but it still works) and doesn't hide RELEASE_NOTES.

I would of thought not breaking site links was more important that
showing the files on the index page. How many users would even see the
index page?

Probably a better solution is to something along the lines of what Apache
HTTP does:

 For the moment I've copied READme.txt to README and RELEASE_NOTES.txt to
 RELEASE_NOTES to fix broken links but left the two .txt files there.
 
 Do we know if we can get README to show up in the listing somehow?
 
I think we tried but it doesn't work.  I agree that the two files should not
have .txt suffixes.  But what breaks if README is called READme?  Didn't 4.8
ship like that?

So these were all broken for 4.8?  Or did we set the href to READme and

Release area missing LICENSE file?

2013-01-08 Thread Justin Mclean
Hi,

At http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html it states:

Is A Full Copy Of The License Required In Each Source File?
In short, only one copy of the license is needed per distribution. This full 
license file should be placed at the root of the distribution in a file named 
LICENSE. For software developed at the ASF, each source file need only contain 
the boilerplate notice.

Does that mean the LICENSE file should exist in the /dist/flex directory or 
just zipped up in the src bundle?

Thanks,
Justin

  The links should work fine.  It is just that the file README does not

 Yep that's because I added the file about an hour ago. They weren't

 I remember that it used to work fine with 4.8.0.  I believe things broke
 either during the move from incubator to flex or when we updated the site
 to point to 4.9.0 from the earlier 4.80 release.

 BTW, did we lose all history in SVN when we were promoted to a TLP?


Never mind.  I unselected Stop on copy/rename in the Show Log window in
TortoiseSVN.  That brought up the whole history.

BTW, Nick had fixed the link to
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/flex/4.8.0-incubating/README in rev:
1363888
And the link does work.

When you made the 4.9.0 release, you probably just updated the link, but we
never had README in the 4.9.0 release.   Which is why the link was broken.

We really need to have a note about this in the Release Guide.

The release guide currently specifies README and RELEASE_NOTES.

 Hi,

 I’m now many hours into trying to repair a working copy destroyed by using
 “svn switch” which we have to use in order to continue to use a working
 copy after the migration from incubator to the top-level.  Actually, I’ve
 given up and am now checking out a new working copy.

 My theory is that I had some changes pending and somewhere in the hidden
 svn files it stored a path to the incubator that didn’t get changed by svn
 switch.  Today I did an “svn update” on that working copy, changed to a
 different window while it ran and when I came back, it had deleted most of
 the files from my working copy.  After doing some investigation, I couldn’t
 figure out why it went bad since “svn info” was pointing to the right
 place.  I ran “svn switch” again and then ran “svn update” again and
 watched a lot of files get added again, so I thought it was just a
 temporary glitch and I thought it brought back everything, but then when I
 tried to build I found that lots of files were still missing.  Fortunately,
 I don’t think it deleted any of my changed files.

 All my other working copies seemed to switch ok, and some of them had
 changes pending as well, so I don’t have a full explanation as to why this
 one went bad. Maybe one of you knows the answer and can clue us in so
 others don’t get burned this way.   Just be careful when you do an svn
 update.

 the content and the Flex version it relates to. I will be working with
