Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2

2015-06-22 Thread Mark Kessler
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.

The compiler.jar issue is a Falcon installer.xml issue.  I just pushed a
quick fix.  That issue is independent of the Installer itself.

For the toolbar, how many squares do you have?

> I've still have the minor (?) issues:

Just to be clear, I ran the installer from the build done from the source kit 
and had no issues in installing the Flex SDK itself, only FlexJS, that's why I 
don't know it I have to attribute the issue to the Installer or FlexJS.

For the tool bar, it is minor IMO even though that looks not pro (especially 
from us).

Contributions in the form of actual patches or even constructive comments
are always welcome and will certainly be part of the next release (which

Don’t get me wrong:  making it easier to compile the source package is a
legitimate issue.  But what I don’t get is why it helps the community more
to focus time and effort on another RC vs taking the same time and effort
on moving, for example, FlexJS further along.  How does expending energy
on this issue help the community more, or put the foundation at risk, or
encourage participation instead of scaring away potential future release
managers.  Why is delaying the release for this issue more important than
having N more people experience installation failures because they don’t
have their IE settings right?

I’m all for someone taking the time to upgrade the build script to update
the -app.xml to maybe pull the namespace number from, maybe,
flex-sdk-description.xml so it always uses what folks have in their SDK.
And then that will go in a future release.  IMO, folks who feel strongly
about this issue should go work on that.  I want to get this release out
so we can see if our failure rate changes significantly, and try to create
new markets for Flex with FlexJS.

Hi,

You suggested change corrects one the issues. The other one is you can set 
AIR_HOME to a 4.0 SDK, but if FLEX_HOME contains an air version other than 4.0 
it will fail to compile. It will still fail to compile if you change the 
namespace.

Fine by me. I don’t think anyone would have an issue to carry votes forward for 
just a read me change.

Thanks,
Justin

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.

Thanks,
Om

It isn’t provided with an AIR SDK.  Pick one that works and you’ll be all
set.

It does but it won’t currently default to the required one for the installer.

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

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."

Because we don’t want to mingle the AIR SDK files with the files from the
Apache Flex repo.  And it should allow you to easily switch which AIR SDK
you use by pointing AIR_HOME at different versions of the AIR SDK when you
compile against the repo.  Compiling against an IDE-compatible Apache Flex
SDK is a different story because it does mingle the AIR SDK files.

I could be wrong, but I thought the Installer let you pick any version of

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.  At least, I think that’s the process the PMC agreed
upon.  I’m not sure how many folks are going to build their installer from
source anyway.

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?

The Installer is just like any other AIR app.  You need to adjust the xml
to whatever version of AIR you are using.  If you pick a version and things
look broken, we should certainly discuss it.  Otherwise, I don't see an
issue here.

So you’re saying this will only work if you have a default Apache Flex 4.11 or 
below installed? If you have 4.12, 4.13 or 4.14 default installs it won’t work?

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.

Any reason why wouldn't we want to use the latest version?

Re: [DISCUSS] Discuss Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.2 RC2

2015-06-21 Thread Alex Harui
The -app.xml uses AIR 4.0.

AFAIK, SWCs do not have their SWF version carried over into the final SWF.

If you install some version of Apache Flex with AIR newer than 4.0 then
you will probably have this problem.

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
