A question about file links: If you do whatever git command that pulls from the remote or pushes to the remote, what will happen to files in the linked in directories?
When we finally get falcon production ready, are we going to link it into the SDK? I hope not. Falcon is also being used for FlexJS. Now is the time to practice building from downstream dependencies in different repos. I expect new repos for BlazeDS and FlexUnit. It isn't just one link we're talking about. -Alex On 3/17/13 8:24 PM, "Frédéric THOMAS" <webdoubl...@hotmail.com> wrote: > I didn't about it before and I still have to check it works but because > we've got cygwin, creating a hard link shouldn't be a big deal using ln. > > -Fred > > -----Message d'origine----- > From: Alex Harui > Sent: Monday, March 18, 2013 4:08 AM > To: dev@flex.apache.org > Subject: Re: [Falcon] building > > Sometime soon, unless someone else wants to do it, I will rework the build > scripts for SDK to pull stuff from TLF without using file links or > submodules.
