AW: FlexMojos/Maven: one build to get different apps
Hi Mario, Well this is generally a problem in Maven. Usually one Maven Module produces one output artifact. The problem with your profiles is that in these you probably set some properties, plugin-settings etc. Think of these as variables. If you activate two profiles the value of these properties is set to one value so the last assignment wins. That's why you only get one output even if you activate both profiles. What you could try is to add a second execution of the compiler an in this second execution you configure things differently. So if the default compile run would produce "app-name-1.0.0.swf" the second execution could set the "finalName" property to "app-name-ent-1.0.0.swf". It sould be possible but I haven't tried this yet. Even if I am the maintainer of Flexmojos I still have to dig into the code and the testsuite to confirm this. I'll write a message as soon as I found out if this is possible and if it is how you have to configure things. Chris Von: Mario Souza Gesendet: Dienstag, 24. März 2015 22:31 An: users@flex.apache.org Betreff: FlexMojos/Maven: one build to get different apps Hi guys! So, I have an atypical scenario: - We have a same codebase to generate 2 different versions of the same product: a "basic" version and a "professional" version. What determinate how the final product will behave are some compiler arguments passed during the build phase to FlexMojos. So, I've configured my maven project to build the product using the Maven Profiles, and I'm able to run two commands: - mvn clean install . -Pbasic and this generates a "basic version" like this: app-name-1.0.0.swf In other hand, I can run: - mvn clean install . -Pprofessional and this generates a "professional version" like this: app-name-1.0.0.swf Note that, at end, I get different products of the same number version and finalName (obviously, in dev-mode you are working only with one version and if you run these two commands in sequence, the build result of the last one will override the first). However, to dispatch a formal release, I'm thinking *how to get the two different built products* *in one step/run command*. According the Maven docs, I could activate many profiles in "one shot" like this: - mvn clean install ... -Pbasic,professional But when I ran this command, and seeing the logs, just the last profile is executed, and at end I get only one build created. I would like be able to compile the project in one command and, at end, get final builds like this: - app-name-1.0.0-basic.swf - app-name-1.0.0-professional.swf I've tried a mix of profiles... tried include many , alter the passing an variable for "basic" or "professional" be concatenated, tried use the but... not success. So, anyone have an idea about how I could do that? In few words, Can I run two "build phase" passing different arguments for each build in one maven execution/shot? Thank you. @mariojunior
AW: FlexMojos/Maven: one build to get different apps
Ok ... so it was possible exactly the way I hoped it would be :-) I just extended the flexmojos testsuite with an example: https://github.com/chrisdutz/flexmojos/tree/flexmojos-7.x/flexmojos-testing/flexmojos-test-harness/projects/concept/multiple-versions Hope this was what you wanted. Keep in mind ... the default compilation doesn't have to be explicitly defined, just your second one. Here you have to put stuff that is different from the first. So you configure things for the default compilation in the default place and put the differences in the executions configuration block. Chris Von: Christofer Dutz Gesendet: Mittwoch, 25.

RE: security certificates
Well the problem with self-signed is other people cannot easily validate the signature. You are your own certificate authority(CA) in a simplistic sense.

Re: FlexMojos/Maven: one build to get different apps
WOW I tried put 2 executors, but they aren't targeting the correct life-cycle phase (I tried do it on the wrapper phase and not in the compiler.. so dumb! :D)! That's great man, thank you very much for your support! I know that, for "jar" package this scenario doesn't make sense... maybe the correct way would be create different artifacts, but different artifiacts could result a complex release because it would require different codebase... anyway, it's very nice we have this documented for anothers project where we need build different results according the compiler arguments passed to flex compiler.

AW: Could someone tell me how to upgrade to flexmojos 7.1 please
Hi, think I should be quite ideal to help you with this ;-) Actually from the syntax and configuration options not much has changed. The only thing is that the 6.x branch hasn't received quite as much love regarding fixing of minor issues ... but hey ... my heart is beating for Apache Flex and no longer Adobe Flex ;-) The major change is that FM 7.x uses the groupId org.apache.flex wherever 6.x used com.adobe.flex, but the structure has changed slightly. In general switching to FM7.x and updating the groupId should do the trick. On other thing that might cause problems are third party libs compiled against Adobe flex, these still reference Adobe Flex SDKs with their com.adobe.flex groupIds, you will have to detect these with "mvn dependency:tree" and exclude them as having both will definitely cause problems. The Flexmojos testsuite contains a lot of configuration examples: https://github.com/chrisdutz/flexmojos/tree/flexmojos-7.x/flexmojos-testing/flexmojos-test-harness/projects I wrote down a lot of stuff in the Flex Wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/Quick+Start+Guide%3A+Building+Apache+Flex+applications+using+Maven So if you need any more help ... come back and post your problem.

Re: Could someone tell me how to upgrade to flexmojos 7.1 please
I've just migrated recently our project from flexmojos 3.5 directly to 7.0.1 and it's working perfectly. Also, we updated the Flex SDK version from 4.5 to 4.14, following the steps about the mavenizer the sdk and uploading the dependencies to our private nexus. And, recently, Chris help me about to build the same artifact/version with different compiler arguments.. it fits likea glove! :) My only "issue" (if that can be considered one) is about the skipTests ... even running -DskipTests=true, the flexmojos continues compiling/creating the TestRunner.swf. Doesn't run the TestRunner.swf, but it's still creating. But, it's a minor issue. @mariojunior On 26 March 2015 at 11:01, Christofer Dutz wrote: > Hi, > > think I should be quite ideal to help you with this ;-) > > Actually from the syntax and configuration options not much has changed. > The only thing is that the 6.x branch hasn't received quite as much love > regarding fixing of minor issues ... but hey ... my heart is beating for > Apache Flex and no longer Adobe Flex ;-) > > The major change is that FM 7.x uses the groupId org.apache.flex wherever > 6.x used com.adobe.flex, but the structure has changed slightly.

Re: HTTP Basic Authentication for URLRequest
Yeah, a network packet log would be a huge help. Then you can rule out whether or not the Authorization header is present in your request or not. I use fiddler[1] all the time.

Screenshot: http://pasteboard.co/25kUwXgR.png
Looks like header is not passed at all.
Code:
var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(pathRemote);
req.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
req.data = new URLVariables("name=John+Doe");
var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
encoder.insertNewLines = true;
encoder.encode("myusername:mypassword");
var credsHeader:URLRequestHeader = new
URLRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + encoder.toString());
req.requestHeaders.push(credsHeader);
remoteURLStreamer.load(req);
I looked at the doc:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/URLRequestHeader.html
It says:
"In Flash Player and in Adobe AIR content outside of the application
security sandbox, the following request headers cannot be used
Accept-Charset, Accept-Encoding, Accept-Ranges, Age, Allow, Allowed,
Authorization, Charge-To, Connect, Connection, Content-Length,
Content-Location, Content-Range, Cookie, Date, Delete, ETag, Expect, Get,
Head, Host, If-Modified-Since, Keep-Alive, Last-Modified, Location,
Max-Forwards, Options, Origin, Post, Proxy-Authenticate, Proxy-Authorization,
Proxy-Connection, Public, Put, Range, Referer, Request-Range, Retry-After,
Server, TE, Trace, Trailer, Transfer-Encoding, Upgrade, URI, User-Agent,
Vary, Via, Warning, WWW-Authenticate, x-flash-version."
Why does header request cannot have 'Authorization' object? So how else can
we pass the header request?

AW: Could someone tell me how to upgrade to flexmojos 7.1 please
Glad to hear your success story :-) Well the for java projects the skipTests=true also compiles the testcases, it just doesn't run them ... so I won't change anything here. If you use: -Dmaven.test.skip=true Instead of: -DskipTests=true It should also prevent FM from compiling the testsuite :-) Chris -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Mario Souza [mailto:mario.so...@vizexplorer.com] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 26. März 2015 01:44 An: users@flex.apache.org Betreff: Re: Could someone tell me how to upgrade to flexmojos 7.1 please I've just migrated recently our project from flexmojos 3.5 directly to 7.0.1 and it's working perfectly. Also, we updated the Flex SDK version from 4.5 to 4.14, following the steps about the mavenizer the sdk and uploading the dependencies to our private nexus. And, recently, Chris help me about to build the same artifact/version with different compiler arguments.. it fits likea glove! :) My only "issue" (if that can be considered one) is about the skipTests ... even running -DskipTests=true, the flexmojos continues compiling/creating the TestRunner.swf. Doesn't run the TestRunner.swf, but it's still creating. But, it's a minor issue. @mariojunior On 26 March 2015 at 11:01, Christofer Dutz wrote: > Hi, > > think I should be quite ideal to help you with this ;-) > > Actually from the syntax and configuration options not much has changed. > The only thing is that the 6.x branch hasn't received quite as much > love regarding fixing of minor issues ... but hey ... my heart is > beating for Apache Flex and no longer Adobe Flex ;-) > > The major change is that FM 7.x uses the groupId org.apache.flex > wherever 6.x used com.adobe.flex, but the structure has changed > slightly.
