Re: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: LAST CALL] Release FlexJS/FalconJX 0.6.0
I would have to look at the code but I am pretty sure it just uses either some utilities(classes) or there are some dependencies in the tests. There should be nothing in the code that is tied to any classes in compiler.jx. If there is, it should be removed because when I wrote it, I had nothing in mind with AS->JS transformations. I even wrote a small little Reference framework so I could keep the code abstract from the rest of the project.

Re: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: LAST CALL] Release FlexJS/FalconJX 0.6.0
Let me try to make sure everyone has the same information. As I understand it, ExternC doesn't have its own parsing code. It relies on the Google Closure Compiler to parse .js files and build an AST. That is why I put forth the idea that ExternC could be separated out from the compiler.jx folder. Mike, can you tell us more about what ExternC uses from compiler.jx? I would imagine that independent of whether we separate ExternC or not, there will be some number of existing tests that have dependencies on other repos and thus should be separated out. But IMO, just about every test is going to want some set of default definitions, even if it is just Number and String. Currently, we get those definitions from playerglobal.swc via some environment variable (or I guess some Maven default), but it turns out the js.swc we build with ExternC/CompC could be a source of definitions for Number and String and not require playerglobal or other dependency outside of the flex-falcon repo. Although, I suppose, one could argue that the "extern" SWCs generated by the flex-falcon build should be in a separate repo from the actual compiler. So, it could be possible for Maven to build ExternC, then a js.swc, then FalconJX and run most of its tests and have those tests use js.swc. And some other test suite could then bring in a dependency on playerglobal, FlexJS, and/or the Flex SDK. I don't know what the right answer is, I just want to make sure everybody has a better understanding of the factors involved. -Alex On 3/14/16, 2:50 PM, "Michael Schmalle" wrote: >Well I am not planning on doing anything atm so it was just a question to >Josh. > >The thing is, EXTERNC is not just a generator and actually, the generation >of the AS is not that complex.

Re: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: LAST CALL] Release FlexJS/FalconJX 0.6.0
Well I am not planning on doing anything atm so it was just a question to Josh. The thing is, EXTERNC is not just a generator and actually, the generation of the AS is not that complex. Remember it's using the GCC compiler to get the AST ree of the JS file and that is the major reason I created it, was for the JS parsing of GCC. I think creating a generator from antlr would be over kill. The issue here is symantic analization of JS AST to create AS code, not the other way around.

HI, well I'm not talking about taking EXTERNC out of compiler.jx into a dedicated, package. I'm talking about taking the Integration-Tests that rely on parts of compiler.jx being built into a dedicated testsuite artifact. I think EXTERNC is ok to be kept where it is. I am worried about yet another tool that has to be installed, yet another packaging system and all the integration problems that come with it. I would probably be able to integrate things into the Maven build, but we are not making things simpler but adding another technology stack for creating simple AS code. I think it should be easier to crate such a generator using a JavaScript grammar and Antlr4. But I would really like to start working on something like this AFTER finishing the migration to Maven.

Are you asking about ExternC? It works well enough for good extern .js files. The problem is that there are a few libraries (Google Closure Library and CreateJS and probably Cordova) were there is no externs files so we are asking ExternC to try to process the actual code, which it doesn't do so well, so we've fashioned other ways of skipping ExternC or batch modification of the .js files to get ExternC to work and that is making more work for Chris' Maven stuff since the 8 SWCs have at least 3 or 4 different recipes. IMO, it would be awesome to see ExternC grow into a tool that could generate the SWCs from the actual library code so folks don't have to maintain d.ts files or extern .js files, but I think that's a ton of work especially given that some JS libraries are written with different JS patters like the IIFE pattern. Also, Chris and I are wondering if ExternC could be its own folder like compiler and compiler.jx. It might simplify the Maven work. -Alex

Yes, but when last discussed, Justin called the licensing integrity of the TS files into question, so it may be less work for us to have any code that generates extern SWCs from those files come from a non-Apache project unless someone wants to take the time to sort through it all. Of course Apache is interested in all sorts of things like dts2as to be open-sourced at Apache, but the reality is that it won't always be the case. -Alex

Ah, I didn't notice that. Yes, I think you can remove the call to externC.

It just seems to me that if this project gets more traction, using the huge TS definitions seems like a win and you are developing the dts2as right now. Oh well, just a question. Chris I know what you mean about the Java relm but when I created EXTERNC it was to get Alex and Peter out of handwritting js. That said, there is only "so much" that compiler can do because I hacked it together in about a month. Thinking about a way to create something that can support a yriad amount of definitions that are supported by the current TS community is definitely something to think about.

Hi Alex, I'm actually currently looking at the unmodified ANT build in develop. Here I can see that the extern JavaScript stuff in GCL is checked in. The build.xml in line contains this block: Which makes EXTERNC generate the code to out/as ... there the code simply hangs around doing nothing as it it not referenced in GCLs compile-config.xml ... so I guess the complete EXTERNC block should be removed as well as the extern directory containing the JacaScript should be deleted as it doesn't produce the code that is used and it's just confusing to have it there.

It contains the .js files from Google Closure Compiler. The missing.js file is sort of like a patch to those .js files. The src folder contains a few things that are required to get Vector to appear in js.swc. As some have mentioned, externs are sort of like header files. They specify the public API but not the implementation. ExternC processes the extern .js files and generates .AS files. The .js files you saw in GCL was someone's attempt to see if ExternC could eat implementation files (the Google Closure Library).

Curious Josh if your typescript definition compiler can replace externc? How much overlap is there? I wanted to do exactly what you did with typescipt and use it's compiler but I didn't have enough time so I went the gcc extern route, there was a couple massive discussions a year ago bout that and using typescript definition files.

Thanks for the explanation :-) And what's actually happening in GCL? Here I can see a whole bunch of JavaScript files as well as matching ActionScript sources. Here the out/as sort of contains the same classes as the src directory, but the ones in the src contain Apache headers and some imports. Is this eventually a relic because the generated code had problems, that the generated code was checked in in order to manually fix stuff. The generated code isn't picked up as it is not mentioned in the source-path of the compile-config.xml file. So actually downloading the lib, processing it and generating the AS is simply obsolete now? The "js" extern directory seems to be similar, but in this case it seems that only a hand full of classes are manually added.

1. Externs tell the Google Closure compiler which JS APIs it shouldn't rename when optimizing/minifying because they come from external libraries. They're also a handy way to get all the interfaces for a JS library because... 2. externc generates ActionScript stubs from the externs. When we compile a SWC from them, we get something kind of like playerglobal.swc, but for a JS library. Something the compiler can use the check types, and an IDE can use to suggest APIs, but not actually included in the output. 3. The SWF would compile, but you'd get runtime errors in Flash Player or AIR because the libraries don't exist there. - Josh On Mar 13, 2016 9:46 AM, "Christofer Dutz" wrote: > Hi Alex, > > having a look at everything I think I am figuring out how to build the > externs: > 1.

AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: AW: LAST CALL] Release FlexJS/FalconJX 0.6.0
Hi Alex, having a look at everything I think I am figuring out how to build the externs: 1. Get the JavaScript code: - google_maps, jasmine, jquery, js are downloaded in compiler.jx/downloads.xml - cordova, GCL and node is manually checked in (Guess the input didn't work well with EXTERNC, so it was manually tweaked instead of writing the replacement rules for it.) - createjs is downloaded by externs/createjs/build.xml In the end each directory contains an "externs" directory containing JavaScript input 2. Do some post processing by replacing stuff, that was probably causing problems with EXTERNC 3. Run EXTERNC to generate ActionScript from the JavaScript input and output that code to "out/as" 4. Use falcon to compile the code in "src" and "out/as" into an swc. Am I correct with this? If yes, it would have been great, if at least two externs would actually do it the same way ;-) In any case, I do have a few big questions: - What are externs? - What does EXTERNC actually do? The Input JavaScript files don't seem to contain any form of logic and only seem to be some sort of interface, but interfaces to what? - If EXTERNC generates an ActionScript stub to connect to the real lib in a real JavaScript environment, what happens if I do a Flash compile with externs? I think the best solution would be to provide a maven-plugin with 2/3 goals: - prepare: to download/unpack any javascript resources and do the replacing of strings (executed in Mavens generate-sources phase). The stuff will be output to "target/generated-sources/externs-js" - externc: to generate the ActionScript code based on the "externs-js" JavaScript to "target/generated-sources/externs-as"(executed in Mavens generate-sources phase after the prepare goal) (Eventually I should merge both logical goals into one real one) - compile: a simple wrapper that passes the 3 or 4 commandline args to the falcon compiler to compile the sources in "src/main/flex" and "target/generated-sources/externs-as" into a SWC - Pull out the tests that use externs from compiler.jx as they seem to add a circular dependency between compiler.jx and the externs as I need the externs built in order to run some of the tests and I need part of compiler.jx to be built in order to build the externs. (Would suggest some sort of "testsuite" project, that could also contain the "SDKSWCTests" form the compiler package, which causes a similar circularity with the flex sdk and the compiler itself. Currently I used the exec-maven-plugin for both goals, but I guess a dedicated goal is easier to understand and makes the configuration a lot easier.

Ok so it seems that I will have to convert each one into a dedicated maven module.

Hi Alex (or anyone able to explain to me the thing with the "externals") What is the externals directory and how is it built? It sort of looks as if Ant downloads stuff and unpacks it in the externals directory but it's really tricky to understand what's actually happening.

We could set up ci builds on the maven branch now. I would prefer to release 0.6.0 without mavens so we don't risk as much leading up to the San Francisco event on April 4. After that would be better for me to make installer adjustment and release a 0.7.0 with mavens. Would that work for you?

Ok ... so it turned out that the "swfutil.jar" in compiler/generated/dist/sdk/lib was sort of empty. It didn't contain any classes, but only META-INF ... having a look at the "swfutils" directory, this is almost empty. At least it doesn't contain a single class.
