Re: [flexcoders] Which AIR SDK to use with Flex? [1 Attachment]

2014-10-23 Thread John McCormack j...@easypeasy.co.uk [flexcoders]
The link Read the ActionScript Compiler 2.0 (PDF, 20Kb)file 
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/flashplayer/pdfs/adobe-actionscript-compiler-20-release-notes.pdf

explains that ... it does not support
mxmlc
compc
compiling Flex applications

Maybe its because some of Flex code is now run by Apache Foundation.

On the download page for the AIR SDK:

It says:

Note: Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without 
the new compiler.


and provides separate links to SDKs that are about 15% smaller.

Does anyone know the reasoning behind this?

Are there compatibility reasons not to use the main AIR SDK that has a 
compiler? I'm still compiling my SWF with the compiler from the Flex SDK.

From the PDF I gather that you can't build Flex apps with the AIR SDK, which 
makes sense. But the notice on the page suggests that you should not package 
Flex Apps as AIR apps using the full AIR SDK, but rather the stripped down AIR 
SDK. I tried using the ADT from the full AIR SDK to package my Flex app for 
iOS and it works. So I'm wondering why Adobe has a separate AIR SDK for Flex 
apps. I wouldn't think the minor difference in download file sizes would be 
the sole reason.
