Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
Hi, I could be wrong, but I thought the Installer let you pick any version of AIR to mix with any version of Apache Flex. It does but it won’t currently default to the required one for the installer. As I said in a recent reply, you can probably just set -target-player or -swf-version. Probably best to add to README and currently most people following those instructions would be unable to compile the installer. See under How to build the installer using ANT”, adding which version of Flex SDK is required and/or stating that the FLEX SDK also needs AIR 4.0 would help. The steps under How to set up the project for working with Adobe Flash Builder 4.7” and How to set up the project for working with JetBrains IDEA 12+ are also probably a little broken as they don’t mention the new libraries, but I’ve not tried following those instructions. Doesn’t matter to me. In order to vote +1 you need to be able to compile the application from source following the given instructions, the instructions have room for improvements. Would have been a good thing to try before we cut the RC. The previous RC didn’t compile so I (and I presume others) were unable to test this. I’m not sure how many folks are going to build their installer from source anyway. In order to be a valid release it need to follow this ([1]), note the compile it as provided”, if I can’t compile as provided I not able to vote +1. Before voting +1 PMC members are required to download the signed source code package, compile it as provided, and test the resulting executable on their own platform, along with also verifying that the package meets the requirements of the ASF policy on releases.

Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
The README already says: 0. Make sure you have the right version of the Adobe AIR SDK. Apache Flex Installer 3.1 uses Adobe AIR SDK 4.0. If you want to use an older version of the AIR SDK, you will have to change the namespace in the following files: installer/src/InstallApacheFlex-app.xml ant_on_air/tests/AntOnAIR-app.xml. I think if we change it to: 0. Make sure you have the right version of the Adobe AIR SDK. Apache Flex Installer 3.1 uses Adobe AIR SDK 4.0. If you want to use *a different* version of the AIR SDK, you will have to change the namespace in the following files: installer/src/InstallApacheFlex-app.xml ant_on_air/tests/AntOnAIR-app.xml. And since it is a minor change, we wouldn't need another round of voting for this change or we could simply carry the current votes forward.

Had an issue building from source using readme. Step 2 worked: 2. In the ant_on_air directory, run: ant [-DFLEX_HOME=/path/to/apache/flex/sdk] [-DAIR_HOME=/path/to/air/sdk] Step 3 failed here for me. 3. In the installer directory, run: ant build [-DFLEX_HOME=/path/to/apache/flex/sdk] [-DAIR_HOME=/path/to/air/sdk] Did not have a build file in that directory. Had to go back to the root of the folder and build from there. Build was successful from the root at that point. Other than that it seemed to be fine. -Mark

You would also have to select an older version of AIR when installing the SDK and it currently defaults to a more recent one with older versions of the SDK. As I said in a recent reply, you can probably just set -target-player or -swf-version. Any reason why wouldn't we want to use the latest version? Doesn’t matter to me. Would have been a good thing to try before we cut the RC. Folks are supposed to check stuff like this out before we start making official RC’s.

Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
HI, The Installer is just like any other AIR app. You need to adjust the xml to whatever version of AIR you are using. Except that doesn't work if you try to compile it with AIR 4.0 and your Flex SDK has another version AIR. Why do we have an AIR_HOME variable if in one place it using the air version contained in FLEX_HOME? Justin
Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
Hi, I’m allso unable to compile from source. Tied various versions for AIR_HOME. Setting to a a recent version of AIR give this: error 305: Intial window content SWF version 27 exceeds namespace version http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/4.0 Setting to the AIR 4.0 (the namespace mentioned above gives) also this error. Physically changing the name space in the config file [1] to be 18.0 rather than 4.0 and pointing AIR_HOME at AIR 18 SDK and It will compile. My guess is that one of the new swcs has been compiled with a version of AIR 4.0. Look like it need to be recompiled with AIR 4.0 and/or the README changed. What version of AIR do you think we should be targeting? Thanks, Justin 1. apache-flex-sdk-installer-3.2.0-src/installer/src/InstallApacheFlex-app.xml
Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
The -app.xml uses AIR 4.0. AFAIK, SWCs do not have their SWF version carried over into the final SWF.

Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC1
Hi, It sounded like we’d burn credits if we sign an RC and then have to sign a subsequent RC if the first RC doesn’t get approved by our PMC. As far as I’m aware there’s a test process which costs nothing, and it also costs if we (Apache as a whole) don’t use it. So I think we finish up the usual process then get it signed. That sounds possible, but I’m not sure how we would show that the binaries are the some ones or if it would require another VOTE. Thanks, Justin
[DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2
This is the discussion thread. Changes in this RC include: -moved a bunch of files out of the installer folder up to the top-level so that the file structure of the source package better matches the repo. This reduces the chances that the repo build will work but the source package build will not. -made sure to use Nick¹s version of as3httpclientlib. -CONTRIBUTORS and CONTRIBUTING files -Several changes to the other ³all-caps² files So, no changes to our source code logic, but the build script changed as I moved files sopackaging could have errors and we changed 3rd party libraries.

HI, Which AIR/FP versions are offered is independent of the release. That is managed in a data file on flex.a.o. Understand but users would expect a new release to support the recently releases FP 18/AIR 18 would they not? What did you mean in your other post about signing the app? It is theoretically signed by some certificate Om created. The app could be signed to make the user install process much simpler. This signing is separate to signing the air application.

Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC1
Hi, Yes, because someone asked about it a while ago separate from this release. Please don’t mix work that folks besides the RM can do with what needs to be done to finish the release. Yep it’s not a release blocker and it is separate from the release. Last time Om, Greg and myself all tried to get a new FP version working and were unable to. You were able to fix it. Being full time on this project means you probably have a bit more bandwidth as well. All volunteers are of course free to work on what what they want, scratch your own itch and all that. If someone wants to take on signing the binary, that’s fine with me. If you want to make the next RC and then give me the binaries before putting them up I’ll give it a go, unless someone else wants to? I am getting on a plane in 24 hours and will be at a conference next week which might reduce my involvement a little. Thanks, Justin

Re: [DISCUSS] Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2
Hi Neil, AIUI, the quantity of checkboxes should be the same after switching languages, and for a recent release like 4.14, the text for each checkbox should match what is pulled from the apache-flex-sdk-installer-config.xml for that release. 4.14’s is here [1], 4.13’s is here [2]: The installer has two major code paths. The “legacy” code path assumes a particular set of checkboxes that is coded into the source. The “new” code path derives the set of checkboxes from these .xml files. I imagine what we are seeing is that on a language change you end up back in the legacy code path’s set of checkboxes, instead of pulling new text from the .xml file.

RE: [DISCUSS] Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2
I have committed a fix for the checkboxes on the license screen so hopefully it works in the next generated nightly build. I tested it on windows with changing between SDKs and languages and all expected checkboxes were being displayed and I didn't encounter the 1009 error from FLEX-34687.

RE: [DISCUSS] Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2
Hi Alex, Yes, this is exactly what is happening. When the language changes it doesn't check if there is data from the XML file available. It simply rebuilds the list of items from a predefined set in this method initializeInstallerComponentsDataProvider(). It should be looking for any data stored in _installerComponentsDataProvider and use that data if it's there. What I think has happened is that when the code was added to load the XML config data, the installer wasn't updated to use that data in all scenarios (and there are more than a few now). I think I know what needs to happen now so I'll try to wire it all up and get a working version. If I have any troubles I'll be sure to ask on the list. I'm pretty sure the _installerComponentsDataProvider and the usingXML:Boolean need to be used within the initializeInstallerComponentsDataProvider() method to determine what components/checkboxes are supposed to be displayed. This will allow for the dynamic data and a fallback for versions not using the XML config data. I'll post back with my results.

Well, I'm not going to use Jira as a discussion platform, but no would be my view. Software updates must be delivered over secure channels. This goes doubles for compilers. If people on older versions of Windows have to go enable some settings to make that work, we can document and warn of that, as Alex suggested in the Is SSK needed for load installer config?

Re: [DISCUSS] Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2
Why would we need to halt the release process? The 'less-RC' release process [1] has 3 phases, and we're currently still at the start of the first phase. I've made the LAST CALL, but clearly stated that I'll only cut the release branch when there's consensus on the ready-ness of the bits.
