Something I don't get: Adobe is still selling FDB as part of Flash Builder, right?
So why is this called a "donation" ? Maurice -----Message d'origine----- De : Frédéric THOMAS [mailto:webdoubl...@hotmail.com] Envoyé : samedi 26 avril 2014 21:39 À : dev@flex.apache.org Objet : RE: Next Donation from Adobe Another point, at the moment I'm integrating it to make it work with our compiler and the fixes I pushed before but the donated version uses the Flacon AST Classes to evaluate expresions, so, I wonder, once Flacon will be completed we could switch back to its classes or we don't need to wait ?
